Work is very stressful the past three days. I am having problems with irritability and insomnia. I wake at 3:30 a.m. and can't get back to sleep. I emailed my physician and asked if I should increase particular supplements on stressful days.
Anyway, I have the next five days off, so should be able to decompress a bit.
Had a nice, long conversation with my older daughter last evening. It reminded me of the phone calls I used to have with my mom. We would just talk and talk. So nice.

Decided to break fast. Am not refeeding with carbs, though.
************
Ate almost 2000 kcal. Yuck. Then I took a hot bath and fell asleep in the tub. Haven't done that in ages. Last time I took a bath, my hips smooshed against the sides of the tub, forming a dam behind me. I had to be cautious of making waves whenever I changed positions.
Now, I can sit in there and the water flows all around me.
My physician emailed me back. Said to increase my B6, P5P, Zinc, and Magnesium when under stress. She said to try Hops and Ashwagandha to help me sleep.
