Let's put it this way: after I put on my shoes yesterday I no longer had the energy to go out.

Long Covid sucks. 5 years and counting.

Generally something like 10/15 MJoules. Can go up to ~30MJ on Christmas or other family events.

Very precise I approve

I’ve made porridge in the morning, pizza in the afternoon, and also washed some laundry after that. According to a very rough estimate, all of that totals to about 5.5 MJ of energy. In reality, I’ve used a little more than that by using other appliances too, but I think that value is in the correct ballpark.

Today I didn’t drive anywhere, so the chemical energy contained in gasoline wasn’t included. Also, haven’t taken a shower yet (it’s cold in here). Heating the water and the rest of the building uses district heating, but I have no idea how much energy that is per day.

Barely enough to get through my day, then all of the energy when I'm trying to go to bed.

I'm bipolar, so most days I'm either the most productive machine of a person in the room or I'm burnt out to a crisp and want to kill myself

Currently replying from bed because I don't have the energy to make myself get up

[-] Corno@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Really depends! Lots of things can affect it. How much I've eaten, my menstrual cycle, heat, etc

[-] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Generally speaking enough.

Exercise helps a lot.

It varies. All last week I was exhausted. I thought “oh. This must be what being old is like.” But this week I have normal energy. I’m getting stuff done and not struggling just to stay awake. So mysterious. Idk why my energy level fluctuates so much.

[-] Wanpieserino@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

I have a lot of energy because I exercise daily, eat a lot of food, get enough sleep and take sipralexa 10 mg daily

Basically the opposite of depression, no idea if this is harmful aha but it feels damn good
