Yeah, I need to exercise as it is so beneficial to MH. 

 

Right now even doing something like cleaning the toilet, we have three of them, causes me to get chest pains. I know that this is purely benzo brain w/d and I have checked my blood pressure and it is fine. Any task requiring manual dexterity is quite intense. This includes having a hot shower.

I do need to carefully introduce the concept that a raised heart rate is not always anxiety.

 

I didn't mop the floor yesterday but will do that now.

 

Have a good day too.
