Yea I'm much more irritable now
I swear I had good humour
I know it sucks but everything you are describing is normal
Considering what you have been through
Itll pass but it takes time
It won’t pass bcz humans suck lol
Even on the toughest days, you're not alone. Keep going better moments are ahead, and you’re stronger than you think!
I got clinical burn out from work and it took probably 4 months for me to get back to proper brain function
Eat healthy and rest, enjoy the sun
Hope it's better for u now
Just practice slow, delayed reward style of living
Let yourself play video games for hours if thats what ya feel like doing
But make sure you get sunlight
You know, just be easy on yourself
Just dont develop bad coping mechanisms is all
Which is why you need to talk to a therapist
So they can help ya navigate it without falling into bad habbits
Its honestly part of your surgery recovery
Gut health is also going to be very important
These two things are highly overlooked in the mainstream medical industry when dealing with long term recovery
So taking the initiative to address your gut health and mental health will go a long way in helping your recovery
And past that just chill, you been through a lot!
Managing a relationship on top of that is even more stress
