# yip - the last 4 years of my life on and off
combos of
SAD
stress
too much cocodamol, paracetamol and caffeine
if you get a headache - just drink water
if you feel tired - don't drink caffeine
if you feel dizzy - don't eat sugar
take more (some) exercise
avoid pollution, especially diesel fumes (train stations & traffic buildup)
avoid close proximity to printers, photocopiers ( VOC)
avoid aerosol deodorants and domestic cleaners such as spray bleach etc
get fresh air

it all works

# fuck that shit
although I thought sick-building syndrome and all that stuff was bunk until I started suffering from it

at its worst I thought I must have a brain tumour or something. Turns out just to be environmental and dietary

# B_E suffers from an awful lot of symptoms
including IBS, chronic fatigue, nausea, so on.

I wondered if it might be environmental - but then she confessed that she'd never slept a full night's sleep since she was 12.

I'm getting her to a sleep clinic soon because I reckon lack of sleep could be causing all of it.

# You're quite right
there's nothing like a bit of fresh air and exercise. I'm a bit of a pansy when it comes to rain though.
