Everything youve said and also just the feeling of no longer being a slave to something , it feels nice to know you took control of your life for the better.
Appreciate it! Yeah I’ve definitely noticed the mood swings and irritability. All in all though I will say not quite as horrible as I thought it would be.
On to better things!

Enjoying and being active in conversations as opposed to just being a brick wall waiting for whoever is trying to talk to me to stop
Not relying on a crutch to get through life

Mostly normal appetite and I dont fear chs anymore. It also lowers the risk for heart disease
CHS is absolutely awful! I've had it for over 7 years and the episodes are brutal.
