I’ve taken a few rides in my life on endocrine issues.  3 big ones, two caused by parathyroid tumors, one related to stress/exhaustion and adrenal insufficiency.

Sleep is your friend.  Hydroxyzine, magnesium, melatonin, whatever if you need help with sleep.  Get in the car and go somewhere else for a weekend to a hotel and rest as much as possible if it is hard for you to rest at home with work all around you.  

Get a friend to meet you or pick you up and take you to the gym and work out together.  Any reasonable small amount of exercise challenges the body in healthy ways (eustress).  Having an external commitment makes it more likely it will happen, repetition is key.

Eat clean.  Less sugar.  

Get your family or friends to take you to do something fun and unwind/relax mentally.

It your doctor thinks you were clobbered hard enough you can get direct hormone supplementation for a while, since excess cortisol screws up all your related sex hormones (testosterone/estrogen) until the system starts fix itself.  


You didn’t start feeling poorly overnight, give yourself some time to get better.
