Thats fantastic that you got half the job done, I'm impressed! I never did finish my novel :-( I went into a sitting at home reading mode, not too productive. I think you should be rightly proud of yourself!
Also good to hear you made it to the weekend class and interesting that you felt better being around people. This is something I push myself to do, but I need to do more of. I thikn me and you are quite similiar in that we tend to spend large amounts of time alone, at home, with cats, cogitating.. where we feel safe.. and I too stay up late and find it hard to go to bed (but I make myself by 1ish as I do have work some mornings). When I dont though.. I am up till 2.30 and then in bed till nearly lunchtime and get all annoyed at myself!
I thkn if I had more structure, or more people to go see, it would stop me falling back on old comfort zone stuff, like hiding in the house. I recgnise its a hiding to nowhere.. so I do understand. Hey lets both try .. get out a bit more, get to bed earlier.. ? Make a pact!
Sorry you are so tired all the time.. is that partly to do with your ADs? And yes, the last 18 months of being on eggshells may have caught up with you!
You thought anymore about setting the alarm.. so you have to wake up like 8/9am, to reprogram your body clock? Especially now your H is not there to hog the alarm... Thinking of you as always and sending hugs, Al x
