> I start to feel so guilty when the wall hits me and suddenly I'm incapable of the most basic activities... so I try not to promise too much at the moment, not to myself or the world. Taking things slowly seems to help me (and it's a theme I'm carrying around at the moment).
Hi clear,
Sorry you're going through this too. It really s*cks doesn't it? The feelings of guilt are as bad as not being able to move. It's a viscious cycle for me.
> Everything happens at the right time, or something like that. So the laundry I couldn't do, the meal I couldn't prepare, the bathroom I couldn't clean... will be OK for a little while without me.
It seems that some days I get a lot done, and then there are days on end where I'm paralyzed just thinking about what i "should" be doing. I haven't gotten to the point where I feel things will wait, but my husband says the stuff that "needs" to get done gets done.

> When that happens, I know it is time for me to stop. Meditate. Relax. Make a list - though even that sounds too hard right now. Maybe read, if I can retain any information. Keep it easy and uncomplicated.That sounds wonderful, want to go with me someplace warm where we can do nothing together? Or sit in the sun by a pool and read? I'm so cold here, it's in my bones.
