So I thought my mom might be having a stroke....she was suddenly having issues falling over and having vision issues.....apparently it’s just side effects from her chemo pill 💊. So she just has to stop that. But her cancer has recurred so she needs regular chemo again....

True yes that’s what I meant. Physically, it’s a depressant. But in some people I’m assuming can make u sad too literally due to the effects of the CNS.

But can also exacerbate anxiety, often hours later...

Yes that's cuz alcohol is really flexible with the brain - The brain recovers easily from alcohol which is why there's a strong rebound (hangover) so tolerance builds really slowly..

I think..

Today I am doing pretty well. I don't feel like doing my job though. I wonder, is that a bad thing? It doesn't seem so bad.

Lots of walks with your dogs, water, meditation/mindfulness, healthy food, sitting by the fan/air conditioner, no cigarettes/less vaping, reduce mental stress to deal with physical stress, no googling symptoms only ask the doctor, etc..

Helps me too

But what's wrong?
