Taking a step back may seem cruel, but sometimes its very much needed.

Hi. lou. Yes indeed! There are times instead of pushing oneself one needs to rest. Do nothing. Give up all the desire to do anything and just flop out. A mental and physical rest.

We do often force ourselves and the energy required to do this is not what we can afford.

So buy yourself a box of chocs. (even a glass of wine helps) and do what Dr. Weekes in her book calls 'nerping'. Time off. Love and best wishes. jonathan.

Yes indeed, as I have found when it all got to the point where I couldn't function in anything like a 'normal' way, I've had a day at home by myself and done nothing at all. It's easy to underestimate the effort required to be 'normal' on a daily basis and how exhausting it is.
