Summary

They describe chronic fatigue with unpredictable flares that leave them wiped out, and say the mental side is as tough as the physical. Bullet journaling did not stick; now they jot notes on their phone when they feel a shift. They made a list of things they could do on green-light versus red-light days, doing gentle yoga, breathing or two minutes of walking in place, with recovery windows after; the list helped them feel they were still showing up.
