i can't relax.
literally.
whenever i try to relax my leg muscles they start feeling like they're randomly tensing a fraction, dozens of times a second, with less frequent twitching sensations. very weird feeling.
one of the diseases from which i suffer, hmsn, results in the breakdown of the myelin sheaths around my nerves. those sheaths function as electrical insulation. so i guess what's happening is that the affected nerves are effectively picking up random impulses from their surroundings. noise.
it's quite odd to think about.
