I feel like I can't get myself back to my normal state. I come so close, and then get dragged back down. I'm trying to fight, but I'm losing the battle. It pulls at me relentlessly, and I can't stop it. I try to do things that I want to do, but have to rest. My energy keeps seeping away, after I start to use it. I love to sing, but it tires me out so easily as of late. I need to go to school, but it keeps sending me home. I want to be with my boyfriend, but keep needing to rest. I'm trying so hard to get back to normal, but I can't. Why is it so hard to be awake and able to concentrate? Why do I have to keep going back and forth all the time? Why do I need to repeat myself to doctors and teachers? I've been going through this for about three weeks now! I don't mean to yell, but I just want it to go away. I need to work on English, but I'm starting to shut down. I hate feeling like I don't have the energy to get stuff done. It feels like I may never be able to escape from this Anemia. Even though, it may be a chronic illness, I still need relief. All I ask for is some time to feel like my normal self again. I just want to be able to sing, practice Korean, and do school. I want to go back to my music lessons, and full school days. I hate having to confine myself to half days because of this. It's taking so much effort not to ask to go to the hospital. I don't know what good that would do, but I hate this. I just want to know why I keep feeling this way all the time. I need to find a way out of this fog, and back into normalcy. Sorry for ranting, but I just needed to get everything out. It makes me feel better, but now I'm feeling tired once again. I guess it's time for me to stop and rest for a little while. But I need to get going with my English work before I can. This is going to be another rough day, and I need to push. I'll go now, but before I do, I just have one more thing to say. If anyone else feels the way I do right now, you're not alone. I don't know when, but things will change for the better. And when it does, it will make you feel so much better :)

Fighting Against Exhaustion

I have recently been diagnosed with Anemia. I don't have it severely, but I do have it. I am tired all the time now, and it won't go away. I also tend to be dizzy, and have a lot of trouble concentrating. I'm writing this just to vent a bit, because it's been on my mind. If you read this and like it, please feel free to like and/or comment, and subscribe if you want to, thanks :)
