    Work before health you mean? What else did your consultant say?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I have been prioritising work over health. I've fallen into my old hole of needing to please, not saying no, dont want to disappoint anyone.
    I definitely need to adjust my mindset to do my job, do it well and stop jumping to agree to anything over.
    It's so hard to stop being a people pleaser!!

    Do they know about your mental health? Would you feel comfortable explaining to your boss what you’ve just said to us?

    I'm still feeling really poorly with this virus. I'm spending today on the sofa with Christmas movies.

    Finally shaking off that terrible virus and feeling a bit more human. I cooked Christmas dinner for our seniors lunch club on Monday, it was such a pleasure to see so many happy faces.

    My consultant finally decided on a plan which includes pregabalin. I'm a bit nervous about it as I've heard so many stories about it but I'm running out of options so I'll give it a go.

    I was given pregabalin for my pain but it really helps my anxiety too. Personally, I don’t have any issues with it (except if I’m late/miss a dose) except a bit of brain fog, but it’s worth it for me
