randomling | Today's journaling

My period appears to be back, but today's flow has been very light. Still no pain. Counting my blessings.

Sleep last night was poor and short. Very vivid dreams. I napped for 4 hours this afternoon and dreams again were very sharp and not very pleasant. Nightmares are a side effect of the anti-depressant I'm taking, which is fun (I wouldn't necessarily call these nightmares but they are very vivid and not very nice dreams). As a result I've been really quite tired and groggy for all the time I've been awake so far today. Despite best efforts, I didn't get to be last night until 2.30am. This is becoming really quite common. Pain levels are minimal, but just for the extra-special fatigue I'm going to call this a medium-bad day.

I did manage to get out of the house today and go to my therapy - late again, but I made it. (At least this time it was because of the trains and not because I didn't leave early enough?) Haven't practised piano today yet, but I did make a big post about how I'm approaching it.

I'm feeling quite calm today. My mood is surprisingly not too low and I'm not feeling too oversensitive.
