    Hey & welcome! Normal is really overrated. Healthy & alive is to be treasured. AND I still think its takes lots of courage to do this. Hang on - you're a warrior & can conquer! All best!

    Welcome. In my opinion, normal is boring. I'd rather just be my quirky me and enjoy my life. You've just had a major life change and your old normal might not be your new normal. I know that's exactly what happened to me. If you'd like to give more detail I know that we can give our input on it. If you don't want to post it in public feel free to message me.
