Very much so. Its got worse over tbe years too.

Its like I havent got enough energy.

Immediate improvement after first few hours of beginning but still no energy

energy gets better after couple of days and I have a few days when it is at its best (provided I have not had a relapse) and then it starts all over again.

I have also noticed that I am full moon sensitive. I am more prone to having trouble getting to sleep on a full moon and tgerd is more energy however I am having a relapse - tgat additional bit oc energy provided by the full moon jyst wipes me out completely.
