Managing Your Activities
July 15th, 2007Our condition often has a “mind of its own” when it comes to being able to plan our calendar and activities. Here are some ideas and suggestions for staying engaged without adding any pressure. Have anything that’s worked for you? Email us - we’d all love to hear it!
- Write “committed” or “tentative” on my calendar then stay in bed or rest at home a day or two before the commitment. I have told everyone I know and everyone I meet whether it is committed or tentative when they ask (other than doctors they are always committed). That way if I have to cancel no one gets offended.

I keep close track of my energy levels on a daily basis. This gives me an idea as to what time(s) of day I’m likely to be at my best, so I can schedule activites during those periods (and block out times when I know I’m likely to be “down”!).
