I’m still persistantly tired all the time. Even with my morning mile, increased water, daily vitamins, and some veggies added to my diet. I think I have some sort of chronic condition? Now, I’m going to move up my bed time. I was going to put it at 7PM (from 8PM), but decided smaller changes might be better. Now, I’ll get a full 9 hours of sleep each night–when 8 should be enough.
My worrying creeps up, but I am refusing to indulge it. I rarely think about it now. I decided it’s too time-consuming, stress inducing, and a counter-productive activity. And I don’t have energy for the basics these days, there’s nothing to give to worry.
I did, however, feel overwhelmed about the upcoming semester after my meeting with my professor today. He was just trying to set some general guidelines for my independent study project, which is good. He also said, he won’t be all up in my grill micromanaging so I’ll need to be self-motivated–something I totally am. It’s something I think he and I can both contribute to, and it’s a very loose set of standards to work with. Despite all the good, the 3 hours of reading/practicing a week (about 45 hr during the semester) feels daunting when I think of it with my other 2 classes and work. Expecially with this darned fatigue hanging on.
So I need to get my head right, and make a rough timeline:
Monday:
Work from 6:30AM-5:30PM
eat small snack prior to class
Clinical Methods 10-10:50AM
eat lunch after class
bed 7:30PM

Work 6:30AM-10AM

+/- nap after class to to later then 3PM? No, no naps. My body just doesn’t do them right, and I waste time trying.
Do all my studying during the day while Cool sleeps
bed 7-7:30PM (depending on levels of fatigue vs. productivity)
