An Off Day

Sleepy Brain

So my birthday was nice. It was low key. When I got back to the office yesterday, my coworkers had gotten me presents and they were nice. I appreciated them. And the day went fine. Nothing bad or stressful happened. Yet, my brain got overwhelmed. Which I felt when I got home from work. So, I put earplugs in and I listened to a SOS meditation, which helped ground me and got me back to baseline. Then I took extra anxiety medication to help me sleep, as the night before (Monday night) I couldn’t get to sleep for anything. The medicine did its job and I was able to fall asleep much sooner than I usually do. However, this morning I felt groggy and heavy. Too good a sleep. I made it to work a bit later than usual and I am trying to get through the day. I am meeting my brother for lunch at 11 am. I am hoping that will help snap me out of the funk I am in. If not I may see if I can go home early. We shall see how it goes. I would hate to take off when I had Monday off for my birthday but my brain is a weird and demanding thing. After the year of non-epileptic seizures I listen to my brain. Even if means being over cautious.
