Just the reminder I needed
Today is not a coping day, and I've beaten myself up for it all morning... I was half-dressed and a half hour late for work, struggling in a fog, running up the hall, wanting to cry... thought more sleep might help, but couldn't nap... thought a second shower might help, it didn't.
Thanks to each of you for your words, I count my blessings- that I haven't needed meds in 6 months, that I haven't had a rash just some reddishness, that I have been able to work most days lately and I have benefits if I can't. So maybe today coping simply means forgiving my body and accepting that today's one of the 'bad days'.
