Nice post Larc. You brought out a lot of lurkers
, who we need to share experiences with. The more correlation we can find between symptoms, and the more consistent the issues are, the better a grasp we can have. C'mon out of the shadows stinky freaks!

I used to get "slow" or "not quite 100%" feeling, but I think that has stopped over the last few years. I eat pretty well, I work out (50% of the year anyway), and I keep stimulating my mind by learning new things. I don't know if that is what gives me energy, but I rarely feel like I'm tired anymore. I get good sleep most of the time, I'm less stressed at work, and I really try to not let this curse get to me.
Perhaps there are little things you can do to energize yourselves and pick up from the rut. For sure mental and physical fatigue are sure-fire signs of depression. Balance the horror of a BB life with something that you can enjoy. Otherwise you'll go crazy. I'm learning music stuff. It's something I can do alone, and BB is not a factor.

I get thirsty as hell too though. Even if I drank 2 litres of water a day! Especially at night time, my throat feels so soar and dry, it feels like it's going to shrivel away. I have no idea why. I also noticed lately, I'm getting these little white bumps on my lip in the same area every morning. Don't tell me the bacteria is making it's way outside the mouth now!
