Dragging myself through life

At the moment. Not sure what’s going on, but don’t remember feeling this low in a long time, anyone the same?

Any tips/small things to keep going/that make you feel better?

I feel much better when I make myself go out into nature for a walk with the dog and family. Most of the time it all seems an effort at the moment

How to get that spark back?

Me - menopause, can’t have HRT, live alone, WFH.

I feel like this at the moment too. Turns out I have low iron levels. Could it be something like that for you? Pretty sure I’m hitting perimenopause too which probably doesn’t help.

It's seasonal. I always find February worse than January because you feel that winter should be over already, and yet here we are. I always feel better around mid March. Would it be possible to book yourself a holiday? That's what I'm doing this year. I've booked myself one for early March and another for late May, and then will likely have another end of year. It doesn't have to be for very long, just a few days of some sunshine can work wonders.

Following because I'm knackered and life seems shit.
