Hi everyone, long time no see :-)
I've been absent for a bit - I think I crashed a bit after Covid, but I am alive and well and getting back on track.
It's good to hear from you! I was worried you'd joined the many who have departed for one reason or another. I hope you're able to take things easy for a while.
It was a bit weird - I thought I was better, but I just couldn't be bothered doing anything. Then I actually got better and realised I hadn't actually been completely well after all! A bit like having a dream that you woke up, and then actually waking up.
fuck covid, I swear the covid fog made me paranoid and feeling like I had dementia when I wasn't freaking out
I did get one good symptom - it killed my appetite for a while, and whilst it has come back it is currently still just at a fairly normal level instead of the weird constant peri-menopausal super hunger I've had for ages. I'm hoping it lasts as long as possible, it might actually be possible for me to lose some of my excessive weight - I've already lost enough that my clothes are fitting properly again.
Welcome back!
