Sleep and recovery

[Gandalf2]

I have auto immune Enc., I'm in my fifth year of recovery and progress can be slow.

I have a severe spine injury so I take 2 paracetamol and 10mg morphine sulphate for pain relief when active during the day and also when going to bed. I take meds for thyroidism and I take medications for anxiety and panic attacks too. My Enc. meds include seizure meds and immune supressants.

Last night I had a hot bath, took the paracetamol and morphine along with my usual Enc. meds and slept for 12 hours. When I woke up I felt as though my brain had been doing some repairing. I spent the day doing some DIY and normally would have to bail out after a while but I was able to keep going and didn't get confused as I would normally do. It's a massive change and I hope this continues.

I couldn't have expected today's improvement in my mindset and don't really know what brought it on. Fingers crossed it continues. 😴
