Buckfast as a cure for chronic fatigue: The Experiment
@mattgrayyes My normal reasoning is "breakfast, for when I should cook and eat something, but I really can't"
@mattgrayyes oh no
@mattgrayyes that's, uh, that's definitely something you can do!
@mattgrayyes I didn't even realise you were Scottish
Wired: Drinking Buckfast
Tired: Being sensible and resting
Expired: Pushing through the fatigue and paying for it
@mattgrayyes We'll start worrying when you get on to the Crème de Menthe.
@mattgrayyes As an American who had to look up what Buckfast is, I am now filled with even more questions.
@mattgrayyes there's a national wide long term study for this already.
@mattgrayyes Boosted for mentioning Buckfast... 🏴
@mattgrayyes An actual chronic-fatigue consultant once suggested I try nicotine patches.
I feel much better today and I’m going to blame that entirely on the Buckfast and not the resting and staying within my bounds
@mattgrayyes hey, if you can't make your own willingness to do self-care, storebought is fine
