I'm sorry, sj. My only techniques for combating that have been powering through on sheer willpower, sleeping a whole lot, or stimulants. Can't say I really recommend any as a solution.
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

Yeah, I'm drinking lots of tea and powering through because ltc needs me to and also has been getting me up ridiculously early.

Our wings are not tired.
When feeding yourself is what you can manage then maybe try the breakfast for dinner or pizza for breakfast thing to shake it up. Not sure how ltc likes that kind of thing; my boys alternated between being amused and rolling their eyes.

ltc hates all food at the moment. Everything is icky.

Sorry, I'm being so whiny. I'm at least trying to eat healthyish in the hopes of getting some energy.

I have a hard enough time dealing with my depressed and avoidant self. I can't imagine trying to do it with a toddler.

Yeah, Dana. Then add some guilt for being an awful mother to the mix.
I'm drinking more tea. Last time I had coffee I was sick for a week. So, I can't do that.

I just saw an ad for a Women's Sexy Goldfish Costume.
It was actually kind of cute, but I don't want to encourage that sort of thing.
Vortex, you were watching The Good Place on the treadmill? That would make a great reaction video
