“it litch feels like I got a new body in a way I can’t recall the last time I felt this physically good before like yes I’m in pain and all but pain is a constant it’s the everything else I don’t feel like a skeleton on legs, omg I just noticed I’m not even dizzy wtf.
“I feel like crying cause I’m always so hard on myself believing that I’m overreacting and not trying hard enough/being lazy (doesn’t help that my family says it too) but now seeing the difference it’s so clear omg I’m such a fighter how the heck did I get anything done before.
