Emotional and exhausted

Not looking for advice on this just sharing today’s experience for anyone who may wonder about this. I have been productive abit lately not physically but up and about. Went to see ed Sheehan with a lot of worry about how I was gonna cope for the duration. Managed to last the night. Husband helped me get around. Then went out for dinner the next evening after spending most of the day relaxing. Today woke up feeling super emotional and have now deflated and physically exhausted. I am aware that it’s important to try do a little each day that it helps especially mentally. And during the concert I was pumped. As one would be. I’m learning more bout what I can and can’t do and see the importance of timing my efforts and reserving energy. Baby steps. Lead to toddler steps. It is hard when u used to be able to climb a hill lift heavy objects be up all day and half the night bouncing around eat anything you wanted. Sex was always good. These are all things we have problems with now. But I don’t want to give up I’m learning to understand I’m learning to look after myself the best I can and not be too hard on myself. But also take a chance and see how it goes. Hope this helps someone else to read this. Feeling emotional and weak is the normal. Just grab life when u can
