I'm sorry it's all so hard, ita. Hope something breaks for you soon.
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
ita, a friend of mine just got in to see Andy Charles -- do you know this guy? He's pretty excited about new therapies that will come out in a year or so, says like three pharma companies are racing to bring it to market.
Was I too selfish? I would kill to be taken care of right now, of knowing I could explode and someone would stop me from scattering the pieces, but how can I not feel that ship is sailing faster and faster away? ANd I'm left with no autonomy, weak will, and n ot enough to get by on my own.
Not nice enough, not good enough, not in enough, not bright enough, not enough.
NO. It's not because you were "too selfish" or "not X enough."
It's not because you have "weak will." It's stupid biology, and you're doing what you can about it. It's not enough, but that's because of science.
I understand these feelings, because you're in constant pain AND you are fucking depressed and anxious. Would AD's or anti-anxiety meds be contraindated for any of your other meds? I wish to the PTB that I lived close enough to be a patient advocate for you, and help you out. If you ever need me to make calls for you, and get shit done, all you have to do is get ahold of me.
I ADMIRE you. Always have. Still do. You are worthy of admiration and love and friendship and help, no matter what choices you made about children -- THAT doesn't make you culpable for what your body does.

My brain is healing, but the huge holes in my memory are still wigging me out. And I'm still unsure how I will explain my absence to coworkers. Thank you so much for helping take care of me. I'll be forever grateful.

He's the other migraine guy in my neuro office. My doctor has mentioned "things to come out", but a year is ridiculously long far away.
I know I need ADs adjusted, but first I must find a psych who specialises in (or understands) chronic pain patients, and neither my pain nor my migraine doc knows of one. My migraine doc says that psychs treat people with my medication profile like addicts, and...you can see my hesitation.
All flights at o'Hare and Midway have been grounded for 2 hours. Happy Fruday anyone who is traveling today. (Fire at a radar station, not threats or anything. )
Midway going to be closed until noon. This is gonna be ugly.

Didn't that also happen a year or two ago?
I don't remember.
But this is getting weird. They found a guy in the basement where the fire was with a "self-inflicted injury".
Five Thirty Eight finally finished their Best American Burrito bracket!
La Taqueria, huh? All right...
