Most of the week I&#8217;ve given it a 9. I felt great. Today I said a 1. It came on for what seems like no reason. I can&#8217;t keep having days that feel like a 1 or I don&#8217;t know how much more I can keep fighting. It&#8217;s so discouraging to know that it&#8217;ll come back no matter what I&#8217;m doing. I wake up some days and I just feel terrible. I&#8217;m not sure what to do- I don&#8217;t want my life to be like this. It hurts so bad that I can hardly stand it.
