Yesterday I was sad. I sunk into depression and saw darkness. Yesterday I gained weight. I had no energy to put effort into exercising and eating healthy. Yesterday I froze. My joints ached from the coldness and my mind was numb. Yesterday I created distance. I pushed my family and friends away. Yesterday I finally cried out for help and my doctor, friends, and family answered. Yesterday I went to sleep. Today I woke up. I dragged myself up and out of bed this morning. I took my medication, got dressed for work, and headed out the door. Today I went to work. I got to work on time, sat at my desk and did my job. Today I stayed warm. I wore my coat all day and turned on a space heater under my desk. Today I ate healthy. I had oats for breakfast and plenty of vegetables and fruit. Today I socialized. I went to dinner and a movie with my fiance. Today I stayed awake. I fought hard against my fatigue but I did not give in to it. Tonight I will rest. I will rest my tired eyes and my aching body. Tomorrow I will wake up again. Tomorrow I will work again. Tomorrow I will stay warm, eat healthy and socialize. Tomorrow I will stay awake and I might even exercise. I will do this again because tomorrow I will fight. I will continue fighting for my health. I will continue fighting for my family and friends. I will continue fighting for me.
This is beautifully written!! Keep fighting!! Its hard to do better things for your body and health when you feel crappy all the time. But you can do it!!
