Thanks folks. You are all good people TMI so I’m doing better. Doc says that recurring UTIs + bad interactions with the antibiotics is probably behind my latest roller-coaster ride (not finished either). GRRR I have had a lot of infections erm… down south (and intermittent incontinence ☹ ) I have to wait til October to get checked out that it has nothing to do with what fuck face did to me Don’t worry I’ll probably start thinking I’m superwoman in ten minutes ---

FTR, sleeping less and feeling more energetic in the summer is perfectly normal, what’s abnormal is the degree to which it affects you. I’m sorry you’re going through this and hope both the mood pills and infections get fixed soon. ---
