The three or four days after treatment are very strange. Everything is very slow, soft and low energy. It's a struggle to do any small task, and once it's done, there's no satisfaction, but instead a feeling of "OK, what next". Time crawls. Food tastes all the same, regardless of what it is.
Describing it as being "tired" is inadequent. In fact, the idea of sleeping is unappealing. And you don't sleep if you try. It reminds me of the listless third world starving children that you see in the charity plea ads that don't even have the energy to shoe away the flies.
The steroids add to the problem. I suppose I wouldn't skip them, trading their effect for nausea, but I hate what they do to my sleep. Fortunately each night gets better and I only have to take them for three days after treatment.
When I can't sleep I draw childish pictures of me thinking about me trying to sleep.
What does it mean when it loops?
ReplyDeleteIf you need help sleeping, let me send you a copy of the Workplace 3 specifications! That will work for sure.
ReplyDeleteHang in there Ted. Michaela says hello!
"What does it mean when it loops?"
ReplyDeleteIt means time slows so much it goes rolls backwards.
