I use a tinnitus relaxer. Helps get me to sleep and also I use it for low key meditation. About £35 from many chemists or Amazon etc.

have you been considered as diabetic. Or pre diabetic. If so, the. NHS run help sessions by XYLA. I have just finished the nine month XYLA course and I have improved my activity and lost the excess weight. Your GP or surgery can invite you for the course.

By all means use Christmas 2024 as a goal to start your recovery, but Christmas 2025 could be a more realistic permanent recovery goal.

Good luck
