#this be a congestion headache

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

my mom kinda isn’t keen on taking ibuprofen and other stuff like that bc it’s not good for your body overall in the long-term but i read that James Herriot story about the dog who was sick and not getting better and in the end just needed a dose of painkillers for long enough for its body to rest so it could actually heal at a very young and formative age and that honestly affected a lot of my mindset on painkillers and things like that

#like. my mom doesn’t approve. she’s a bit crunchy. but if i take a dose of sudafed+ibuprofen bc i have a bad #sinus-congestion triggered earache and headache it’s actually going to help me sleep which will help my body heal right?? #like i don’t take this stuff that often and ONLY if it’s affecting my sleep! i have no issue with that #and i actually do think of the james herriot story every time kdsjhskjghka. i think it was a poodle?? #idk. just… thinkin #Lu rambles

lesson learned this week: if your teenage niece asks to throw a party at your house, say no because you might end up feeling trapped in your bedroom due to not wanting to encounter a group of teens in your own home so now you’re thirsty, and being thirsty triggers anxiety and anxiety triggers nausea and nausea triggers more anxiety which triggers stomach cramps which triggers more anxiety which triggers more nausea and i’m still thirsty on top of that. i am fighting for my life in here 😭😭 i think i could start crying i’m having so much anxiety 😭😭

#i am so tired of the cycle of anxiety 😭😭😭 like bro my body is TIRED #it’s tired of being in an anxious state and hurting and feeling nauseous and throwing up and i am constantly dying #i’m also wearing makeup and i need to take it off but i can’t bc that requires going to the bathroom! #and going to the bathroom means encountering people! #i need a xanax #maybe 2 or 3 actually #i also need a hair tie my hair is starting to drive me crazy #i’m getting a headache #i’m also congested bc my allergies are bothering me #i’m also shaking i cannot with this rn #i am overstimulated #and i have to pee #we are just not doing well team 😭😭 #strawberrybyers text post

aside from getting freaked out that I couldn't breathe as easily last night I didn't get any other sense of dread or reason for health anxiety to fixate on so I'm completely normal now so yeah.. I'm completely immune to th3 effects of things basicslly

#my chest hurts less and I'm starting to get less congested. it's just my cough and headache now

Sometimes it's like. Ok, cool, small town, I can usually get a doctor's appointment same day, real quick and easy

And sometimes it's like well shit, small town, everyone is fucking sick, busy signal 4 times I call, get through and "oh, sorry, the earliest I could get you in is on the 22nd"

It is the 12th

#personal #i am Sick Again and have missed 2 days of work which is hell for my finances #i think i need to finally say goodbye to my savings account tbh nothing is going to be left in there #i don't think this is covid again i think I'm getting a sinus infection #had one of those afternoons where suddenly the post nasal drip started and i got a headache and it was like. hey what the fuck!!! #probably allergies.... but I'm uncomfy and my head feels like it is full of wool #congestion hell over here #thought I'd be ok to go to work today but i nearly fainted in the shower so.. don't wanna test my luck driving #thought 'oh no I've missed 2 shifts in a row I'd better have a doctor's note on hand and maybe keep this from getting worse' #not gonna happen i guess hsgshsgshsg #and I'm going thru the usual 'I'm at home all day i wanna sit outside i wanna draw i wanna paint' and i don't have the energy for it #it sucks it sucks it sucks

When you . wake up in unbelievable pain . and you feel resentful and frustrated and and and

But then your pets are happy to see you're awake . your dog wags her tail and trots after u to the bathroom, your cats tails are all curled into that cute S shape that indicates they're glad to see you, and when u put fresh food down for them, they take a minute to rub against you and purr before they start to eat

And then it feels like actually, you can deal with the Horrors 👍🏻

#erin talks #text #it's da back pain and also a headache of unknown origin #I took one of my migraine meds 5 hrs ago & it didn't do shit #so I'm trying zyrtec in case it's my allergies giving me a nightmare congestion headache #but I got up to take that and eat a little so I'm not a cranky asshole later #after this post I'll be going back 2 bed #goodnight once again gay ppl in my phone

Last few weeks, L and I have been counting sheep to help her fall asleep. I describe a beautiful pasture on a lush green hill, with a wooden fence at the bottom next to a riverbank. We have one hundred sheep, and they are naughty sheep, you see. They like to hop over our fence and play down by the river. But they usually hop back over soon enough.

Often the sheep hop the fence several times, and she's still awake and wants to recite Backyardigans for a while instead. Sometimes they all come back over to our side of the fence, and she rolls over and drifts off to sleep. Tonight I didn't even make it to 60 sheep before looking over and realizing she was sound asleep.

Counting sheep. Sometimes you just gotta stick to the classics.

#this is like record time for her falling asleep lol #in fairness shes had a stuffy nose all day and even though thats all she has #like me. she apparently has her whole day ruined by a stuffy nose #i dont blame her i cant stand being congested and my nose constantly runny #ill honest to god take a bad headache over that shit #but yeah shes not been feeling her best today and apparently she was exhausted #asleep in about a minute. dang girl

EXCELLENT NEWS Y'ALL IN MY COMPLAINING ABOUT THE HEADACHE I FAILED TO REALISE THE SORE THROAT IS GONE

#THAT'S ONE OUTTA FOUR now we wait for the headache the cough and the congestion to go >:)

Rushing water sound and tinnitus in my ears save me.

Room spinning around me like a dance, keep me alive.

I’m begging, unearthly feelings of discomfort and disconnection from myself due to prolonged illness, do what you can.

#I have been very ill for several days #cough and cold #upper respiratory infection #a prolonged illness #tinnitus #cough #congestion #headache #phlegm #dizziness

I hate this cold so much

#sick of it hurting every time I swallow and my nose running nonstop and feeling congested #and the headaches that come with it and the general uncomfortableness
