hi everyone,
So about four months ago i went from a mild case to a moderate case (yey!). Initially i thought this was a crash that will go away in a week or two but looks like i have permanently messed myself up.
What doesnt help is that whenever i am getting better i try to catch up with work and it sends me back down. There was a short period that i felt like i was coming out of this but i started working till midnight and after two days i was back in the depths of hell.
So i have finally asked for a one month leave of absence from work and they have approved it. The only question is what do i do. If i stay in my tiny studio apartment in the Bay area i will lose my mind. Before my recent crash my life was work and then come home and pass out, so i dont have anything else going on.
Is there a place that you guys recommend i go to get better? I am afraid of getting too adventurous and going somewhere that might end up pushing me but i also dont want to stay in bed for two months.
I was thinking Esalen or an all inclusive resort or an Airbnb in costa rica ? I cant afford the whole month but at least for 10 days it would be nice. I wish i could do a meditation retreat but i dont think im in any shape to meditate all day in the lotus position!
@wabi-sabi @Bead Dog (do you guys have any recommendations?)
