I started taking tirzepatide a few weeks ago and it changed how my body feels. I can’t describe it well. It gave me energy, but not like nicotine. It seemed to let me access more of my own energy.

I was still trying to pace with my visible band. But I thought I felt better enough to go a bit further. And then a bit further.

Today, I’m in a crash. But it’s different than my pre-tirz crashes. I’m not sensitive to light the same; I’m just incredibly exhausted like I haven’t slept in a long time.

I want to explain it out loud here because I know you understand. But I can’t find the right words because my body still feels different and not quite as bad as before. Also, I feel disappointed in myself for taking chances.

Thanks for listening. I’m not sure what I’m hoping for posting here- I think it’s just to remind me that me/cfs is still my life.
