Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Yes, sj. I get all sorts of vision symptoms with my migraines (actually, I get those more than bad headaches, when I get migraines). Sometimes, it looks like the rays on the top half of the sun (but I can't see the sun). Sometimes, there's just no vision in one eye. Sometimes, it's like a flashbulb went off. I can't say I've had the lightning bolt shape, but it still sounds like a migraine to me.
It's interesting you had it about a year ago. That makes me think there's an allergy trigger or tie-in, or else you're eating more of something at Thanksgiving, than you would at other times, that is triggering you.
sj, sounds like it to me.
ION, decorating by yourself isn't nearly as fun as decorating with other people.
Thanks Cindy and vw, I am glad it sounds at least like something people have heard of, because I went into a horrible panick attack when it happened. The original doctor thought it might be related to the dryness of winter last year, so I think it is seasonal. After it went away I got the headache and nausea that I have heard people mention with migraines. I still feel kind of crappy today.
yay
hugs internets
it was all gone. luckily I checked the cable modem , which some how became upplugged
All my best friends have been girls/women. All my guy friends have eventually ended up making moves on me. Based solely on my own experience, I think that guys only befriend girls that they are interested in dating and hope they get lucky one day.
I have more male friends now than ever.
I think I'm too much woman for most of them, though.
sj, I would take something (I got them a lot when pregnant, so I still try Tylenol first out of habit, but there are better OTC medications), lie down in the dark, then have coffee before I came back into a lighted room. I would wear sunglasses around the house, if they hit when I had to do something (feed a baby, etc.) and couldn't lie down.
I tended to get the headache and sick feeling afterward, but the headaches were not unbearable.
Very few of the guys I know more than passingly ever make moves on me. Perhaps it's the unsparkle of my personality. Guys who are going to make moves, it seems, make them right up front, so I can deal with it as appropriate and move on in the applicable manner.
Which is nice...except that I never make moves on guys, so it kinda sucks to know I won't be rescued from my own cowardice/issues by someone I've known a while.
If you don't count friends garnered from b.org, or relatives, my friends are predominantly male. Face to face, it seems that's what sticks.
When I was younger, my friends were about a 50/50 m-f split. Now, they're mostly female, although most of them are married, and I consider their husbands friends too, so... I dunno why I thought I had something to contribute to this conversation.
