That's part of recovery, a proper diet, regular exercise, meds, therapy, and good sleeping patterns. Sounds like a lot but really isn't.
I'm very tired of living like this. My life is a total mess. I could "get away" with this behaviour when I was younger, but not now.

I get little fleeting sensations of excitement when I think what it would be like to just be "normal". I miss having things to look forward to in a non compulsive/manic way. Then I think of how drastically I will have to change my lifestyle and behaviours and it all seems very daunting.

I like the sound of sleep and a healthy diet, I've missed both of those thing desperately over the past 15 months or so. This has aged me in the past year.

Thank you for you comments and virtual support :-)
