For individuals with Parkinson's disease, establishing a morning routine can be crucial for managing symptoms and maintaining energy throughout the day. Here are some tips based on my knowledge base:

- Exercise: Engaging in morning exercise can help combat fatigue and improve overall well-being. One member shared, "I get up at 4 to 5 a.m. and go to the gym by 5:30 a.m. Work starts at 8:30 a.m."
- Stay Active: Keeping busy with activities like work, dinner, cleanup, and social interactions can help maintain energy levels. "As long as I keep moving, I stay perky!" said another member.
- Rest When Needed: It's also important to allow yourself to rest. Taking short naps can help manage fatigue and keep you energized.

As for working full-time, it varies from person to person. Some individuals with Parkinson's continue to work full-time, while others may adjust their schedules or reduce their hours based on their symptoms and energy levels.
