When I was working, I kept to a pretty decent schedule. I went to bed at the same time and woke up at the same time (when stable or not battling insomnia or hypo). I did my laundry on weekends and set out my outfits for the week. I grocery shopped once a week and planned the dinners I would cook for the week. The schedule was helpful and I think it contributed to having several years of relative stability. Then I became very sick, lost my job and my routine went down the drain. My stability has been more shaky since, and I don't know if it's because of my sickness or my lack of routine is making things worse. I've tried to get on a consistent routine because I'm told it's vital to wellness and I want to make sure I'm doing my part. I used to force myself to NEVER nap, even when I was so tired I felt I'd vomit from it. My quality of life sucked bad and I wanted to die. Now I sleep when I need to. It's not ideal, but it's nessessary for me at this time.
