I want to say 'I'm okay' because on a scale from 'fine' to 'everything is on fire' I'm a lot closer to fine. I'm just .. not. And I keep just being ... not. I've taken what I hope is the first step, in that I've made myself an appointment with new-to-me-GP (previous one left the practice) and picked one of the two options who listed both chronic conditions and mental health in their areas of interest. But, uh, I need at least one of two physical things to be better before I can address the mental health because I think what is going on in that everything is physically too hard, and that is crashing my mood, rather than my mood being crashed in general.

tl; dr: adulting sucks. bodies suck.

Embodiment has a lot of costs.

Hoping for the best for you.

New GP seems good, has picked a starting point, and maybe things will be good. Turns out one of the medications I'm on for one thing is possibly making the other major problem worse, which, aaargh.
