So for three days straight I binge watched the television show Supernatural.
That isn’t the strange part, as that is the kind of thing I find myself doing at least once a year. The strange part was that for three days, I didn’t eat much, I didn’t want to sleep, I didn’t drink water.
I was, for a time barely human and I still haven’t figured out why. I didn’t even really realize how bad it was until I woke up from finally having a good night’s sleep and I felt like I had been hit by a truck. All at once all of the symptoms of my hypoglycemia just jumped to life. All except for hunger and nausea. I was weak, shaky, dizzy. I don’t even know how I got down from my loft bed without killing myself or breaking a leg or something.
After this though, once I had finally eaten, once I got to the point where I was feeling human and aware of my body again, I became so relieved. I became so overjoyed to feel hunger, to eat, Hell, I was glad to poop. It meant I was in my body, I was aware.
I hope I keep this feeling of being greatful for every human thing. Feels good to be alive.
