I've been sad because I know I'll never be able to retire, no matter how hard I work, but now I'm realizing I can stop being sad about that because there will be no world or civilization around by the time I'm old enough to retire. The earth and humanity will still exist but I highly doubt things will still resemble what they do today. One way or another, it seems like things are going to drastically change. We can't sustain this for another 40 years
You're welcome! I hope your mom can find something that works for her. Life with migraines is terrible. One of my co-workers got a migraine one day when we were working together and he looked at me and said "how do you live like this, how do you handle the constant pain, this is unbearable" and I said "what other choice do I have, I can't make them stop, the only other option I have is to kill myself." Finding the right treatment was just amazing, I never thought they'd go away. I've been getting them since I was a child.
I used to have 25-28 migraine days a month. About 15-20 of those were struggle through work while half blinded, come home and go straight to bed. My PCP put me on a beta blocker while waiting until I could get in to see a neurologist. It helped a small amount, in that I was having maybe 23-26 migraine days a month and they were slightly less severe, but when the neurologist put me on anti-seizure meds (topiramate) my world changed. Now I have maybe 1-2 migraine days a month if I have a migraine at all and I only have 4-5 bad headaches a year. It's been maybe 2 or 3 years since I've had a "lay in bed, dont move, dont think, dont open my eyes, if I so much as twitch a finger i will projectile vomit" migraine. I got my life back.
I dont have TT. I also don't have Snapchat. Therefore, I also don't have friends, or have any clue what is going on in the lives of those around me or the pop culture of my generation.
It is a lonely existence, but I refuse to get either of those apps. People have my number. If they actually cared, they could return my texts.
As an introvert with social anxiety I never call a waiter because I eat my food at home away from people like the rest of the losers
