I’m noticing a natural cycling of energy. Up for a week or three and then down for a few days. I don’t think I’m ever really set up to experience this. I’m either depressed and recovering from a manic episode, or things start getting normal, and I spiral myself right back into the hospital for another period of depression.

It should be noted that my “depression” is not what someone with clinical depression might experience. I’m usually just different levels of checked out. At the lowest level, I’m staring at the ceiling, and at the highest level, I’m deep into gaming.

Anyhow, the only other time I can remember having this energetic cycle is in 2007 when I was in an apartment at my mom’s house going hard on YouTube. I’d be slamming videos and internet for weeks at a time, and then BAM fetal position for some days, just totally out of it and lots of sleeping.

I slept for 8.5 hours two nights ago and 10.5 hours last night. Before that, it was all 7.5 hours with most days waking up only to see I hadn’t slept enough before going back to sleep.

With all of the apps I’m using to track different things I’m not tracking “energy level”. I want to start tracking that to see if I can see a pattern. I’ll look for an app to use, but I can’t find one. I’ll just do it in a Gemini chat.

The other thing to report is that I’m testing the “Enter the 108” CustomGPT and it’s AWESOME! 😀 I have this who Story, Dream, Flow system, but I didn’t have a systematic way of generating these documents. I just kind of fumbled in the dark to create mine, but I wanted something better than that for other people. I did “deep research” for Story and Dream creation and was able to borrow from systems that have been scientifically tested.

I just went through the Story component myself and I’m really happy with the results. I could have shared this version, but I wanted to go through it myself to find weaknesses and I found a lot of small things I want to adjust.

I’m testing v1.1 right now, I’ll update it to v1.2 and test that, and then I’ll share v1.3 and get feedback from some real people.

Hmmm… 🤔🤔🤔 I just had a thought about how the system “requires” having an accountability person (or pod) but I’m realizing that some people would probably be able to check in with a chatbot… They might even prefer it… Hmmm… Just a thought. This AI PRESENT is strange. 😂

Some AI art for ya.
