Day 16 of 25 - Armor of Battle

Feeling very tired and cranky. My treatment area is becoming very uncomfortable, part of it feels like a burn, part like a large bruise. My doctor told me this was "normal" and to take advil as well as treating the burn area. I had acupuncture today, which made me feel better. I was cranky at the facility and just wanted to get out as fast as possible. I wore my Ipod, but it didn't distract me enough. I was feeling the gravity of the situation, the weight of the armor of battle. It's really too much to process, I have to focus on my breath and try to only have clear space in my spinning mind. I've double booked myself for several things over the next week and can't seem to prioritize. After acupuncture I supprisingly had enough energy to make dinner. I have a hard time sleeping through the night now, so i take a little ambien. I thought it would be stronger, i don't see the big deal. Unless I need an elephant size dose because of all my meds.
