Irritability
Over the past couple of months I've really noticed how irascible I've become. It's not been an easy year to 18 months for us.
- We've sold our house twice - original sale collapsed
- Bought a new house which had to go through probate
- Renovated the house once probate was granted lots of evenings and weekends lost to that
- Lived with the outlaws for six months with our two children while waiting for probate to be granted
- I've changed jobs into a new more challenging role
- And it's been a good nine months since I last had some real relaxing time off work
I think it's all just caught up on me and though the stress has ebbed away my irritability hasn't yet. Also forgetting things a lot more recently and struggling to concentrate. Anyone else suffer from this? Do I just need a break from it all? Got some time off for Easter so I'm hoping that will help me get sorted.
Just feels better sharing - I don't really have a support network to talk to about my MS stuff. Thanks for reading :)
@tigerdes Blimey .... you need a break, that time off at Easter should be about rest and relaxation, not a few days off to do 'stuff' that you have been meaning to get around to like gardening, a bit of DIY etc. You're lifestyle is very active, take some time to do fun active stuff just because you can :-)
Thanks Tracy - it's one of those things when you know you really need a break but you always fret about all the other things that need doing and people in your life that need your help, time or support! 15 days to go ... :)
