Stress

It's amazing how much stress affects the body.

How it can increase symptoms, cause actual, physical pain and impede healing. How it can result in even more bone crushing fatigue and insomnia cycles.

It's amazing, too, how physical illnesses can contribute, and even cause, anxiety.

Put the two together and, well, you have today.

It is Monday, though. Maybe tomorrow will be better. Or maybe it won't. I don't know. Hopefully, though, I will sleep tonight.

Thank you so much for your kind words. If what I go through can help even one person, it makes it all worth it!
