Where am I and what am I doing?

I'm back in PA and working as a screen printer still. It's nice to back in familiar places and around people of comfort. Moving around is always stressful and exhausting. It's rather hard to live in an apartment still considering my conditions and being able to work. I was hoping by this time I would hear back from disability but I haven't. It's a horrible and long process. I can't say how tired I am of this whole thing. I wish it could be sorted and finished.

However, being back in PA and focusing on myself. I've been able to keep my POTS under control and start becoming strong again. Also thanks to figuring out my gluten intolerance, I've been feeling better all over. I've been able to do more and eat without getting sick. It's improved my way of life. I've started going to the gym as well to work on my legs and endurance like the cardiologist told me. It's going to help me get stronger and be able to do more without getting so tired quickly. It'll also help me from passing out so easily. Because it's pumping my blood upward. I started at the end of December working out and I've definitely noticed a difference so far! I've got muscle building again! It also helps me with my job and standing for longer periods of time. The only downside is my Fibromyaliga acting up and hating me for working out. But it gets better as I go. I'm just sore all the time.

I've also picked up therapy again and have the best therapist I've ever had and it's been lovely!
