00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Hello and welcome to R, D and the In Betweens.
2
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:32,000
I'm your host, Kelly Preece, and every fortnight I talk to a different guest about researchers, development and everything in between.
3
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Hello and welcome to the latest episode of R Di and The Inbetweens.
4
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Now I say episode, but I don't have an interview with a researcher for you this week.
5
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:51,000
There's a number of different reasons for that. One of which was that I was due to record an episode last Friday,
6
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:58,000
but I was off work the end of last week because I was suffering from a migraine
7
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
and I was just going to put out a kind of alert that said no episode this week.
8
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Back in two weeks time.
9
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:17,000
But actually, I wanted to acknowledge something, which is that like, hey, everyone I'm speaking to right now, I've hit a brick wall.
10
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:24,000
I'm really struggling with all of the screen time, struggling with migraines and headaches, struggling to sleep.
11
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:32,000
And I just wanted to share that with you, just to remind you that right now that experience is normal and it's okay.
12
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:39,000
And also, if that's what you're experiencing, please, please give yourself some time and some headspace.
13
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,000
I had two days off work and another two days weekend away from the computer screen.
14
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:51,000
I still feel pretty kind of alert and stressed this week. I think it's my kind of fight or flight coming back into play.
15
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:59,000
But. I feel a lot better and I feel much more able to function than I did just a few days ago.
16
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000
So the phrase that I've been hearing a lot recently, when we ask each other how we are,
17
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:11,000
as we tend to do in that very British way, is people responding with pandemic fine.
18
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,000
So I'm not fine. I'm pandemic fine. These days.
19
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:25,000
I seem to have three moods. Pandemic fine. Pandemic breakdown or extreme cabin fever.
20
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
So this is just a quick message to say sorry, there's no epsiode this week.
21
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,000
I'm just finding it tough to sit down at my computer.
22
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:43,000
And if you're experiencing that, too, I'm here in solidarity with you and it's okay and it's normal.
23
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:51,000
You know, it's the new normal for us. And I'm I'm really hoping that things are going to.
24
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Continue to move in the right direction and change soon. And that's it for this episode.
