As I was fighting for my life back, and my energy started improving, I decided I needed to fight to find "me" again.
I had been a coffee drinker for at least ten years on a regular basis. I was one of the people who would get a head ache if I didn't have my morning coffee.
Coffee was my way back to normality. I grabbed a cup one morning thinking that it was my first step back to being "me" again.
Shortly after I drank the coffee, I felt as though someone released little firecrackers in my brain. I wanted to cup my brain and scream. In addition, I was having a hard time breathing. Caffeine did not agree with my body anymore.
At that time it was easy to blame it on anxiety. I blamed EVERYTHING on anxiety. My entire life, I tended to lean more towards the depression end of the scale when I would go through difficult times. Anxiety was never a big part of my life and I was so confused as to why it decided to show up.
Now it all makes sense. Lyme. It's taken a hold of every single function in my body. I will not be a victim to this devastating disease and I will find my way back to good health.
