"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

avoiding home improvement projects

I think this is a global recommendation, regardless of whether one is in need of prescription meds. I think there is a UN resolution to this effect.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I've been trying to keep my brain super busy so it won't collapse in out itself, so I've been finishing a painting project, cleaning the kitchen, and sorting through clothes for Goodwill. It's been tough in that I'm not capable of handling mistakes well, but checking items off the To Do list has been putting scratches in the feelings of worthlessness.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Well, that's good, truly. If I attempted such projects, I would be in the pit of despair within 2 hours.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Allyson, are you still having IBS/gastrointestinal issues? I ask because about 90% of the body's serotonin is made in the gut, and if your guts are having issues, it stands to reason that it would affect your serotonin production/uptake, which fucks with your brain quite literally.

What, what? I don't know if I knew that. Huh.

Yes, Steph. It was particularly awful yesterday. I had a bad experience with a doctor who told me I needed my gall bladder removed, and the surgeon said my pain wasn't connected to that, and suggested a test for ulcer bacteria.

But then my brain went haywire, and I've just been hanging by my fingertips, so I've been unable to do much to take care of my health.

Allyson,

(I've had gall bladder surgery)

Why do you need yours removed?

I totally understand that. Getting your brain back in order is the most important thing (and does qualify as taking care of your health, IMO).

Absolutely.

There were stones found in an ultrasound. The surgeon said most people have stones, and that my symptoms were not gallstone related.
