Recovery Emotions

Be kind to yourself Kate. I felt all over the place when i started Ex-Med cos it was just another new thing to cope with and also another reminder of all i had been through. I really wanted to do the program but at the same time i wanted it over so i could properly move on with my life. And i have. Though it took a good year time wise. Don't drop out, it's really worth it but you may not feel like it is until about a month into it. If you can, get there 15 minutes beforehand so you can have a leisurely warm up. By the end hopefully you'll feel stronger mentally as well as physically. Even after a year I still get emotional but it is no longer as intense and i pull out of it quicker. I think my body has settled, after nearly a year, drug wise, at least at the moment, as my hands have largely come 'good' (i use that word very loosely!) and my hip is not as dodgy. I just punished my body in the garden today and it's coped pretty well with a timely ice pack here and there. I'll see how I feel tomorrow when I'm back at the gym. Sending you lots of hugs Kate.
