And I was, I was staying at my parents and then I'd got the train to London and was just like, oh, I've got this weird headache in the back of my neck, like right round in the back.
Didn't think anything of it because I get, I got headaches quite a lot.
And then I arrived at the gym and was like, like we've all had those days where you're at the gym going...
I mean, I'd rather be anywhere else.
Like, this is really hard.
And it felt particularly difficult, but I was in a mode of beating myself up.
So you're like, come on, we're doing this.
We're going to do it.
So I arrived incredibly tired and we were doing the plank.
And then the closest thing to describe it is imagine an elastic band just snapping around your brain.
This like insane pressure.
And I stopped and he was like, where does it hurt?
And I said, my head.
And my trainer was like, that's not good.
And then everything feels like a blur.
I crawled to the loo and was just vomiting profusely with this
unbearable headache.
And in that moment, I knew I was being brain damaged.
Something clicked.
Tomorrow's world.
