Hey all - what a strange year huh. The last 2/3 months feel like a blur. I was doing ok until September and then it felt like winter struck, lockdown was looming and my mental health took a nose dive off the highest board into a vat of concrete.
Good news is that I talked to the doctor and have upped my anxiety medication (considerably), I finally have some plans to see my family (which in itself is also making me anxious as well as very happy) and I also finally have a diagnosis for why my body has been falling apart for the last 3 years - I have ME/CFS. I don’t quite know where I sit with that yet - I’ve been through the ‘finally a diagnosis’ stage and now I’m sat uncomfortably in the ‘shit now what??’ stage - bordering on the ‘fuck fuck fuck’ stage haha. I guess I should state that it isn’t anything fatal - I’m not dying - but there isnt a cure either - so I’ll be managing this and dealing with whatever else it decides to throw at me for… well, forever.
However I guess if I can get a first class degree whilst being chronically sick - I can do anything right?? I hope so!
Anyway, so yeah, a strange year. How are you all? I have no idea who still pops in here - but please drop me a comment below with how you’re doing - the one thing I’ve missed the most with not dipping my toes into blogging is my blog friends.
Camera: Canon EOS 750
Film: Fujicolor 200 (developed and scanned by my new friends at Take It Easy Lab in Leeds- I’m never scanning colour film again ha. Also looking at their insta when I sent me films, I’m pretty sure a member of The Kaiser Chiefs developed my film - thats pretty cool)
Location: Yorkshire Sculpture Park
p.s. can you see the text in the photo above? I though it was a good fit for this year ha!
