Holy shit, bro, good on you!!! <3 It sounds like you and your mind/body are coming to terms with one another. I remember a few years ago when my hair basically stopped growing I was so malnourished; normally, my hair grows so fast I have to cut it every other weeks. It took 3 months before I needed a hair cut. I know how it feels to finally get your body to wake up from hibernation.

Also woooot hella yeah for an RN! I really think you have the personality and drive for it.

Good luck on your test aaaaauuugj!
