My life hasn't improved, BUT, my outlook and perspective has, which by extension, ameliorates my mental health....So, I guess you can say that my life has improved after all.

This is the second worst cold I've ever had. Or maybe it's worse than the other one I'm thinking of. Point is, it's AWFUL. I've never had a cold before that prevented me from sleeping. I could always take Nyquil and sleep through most of the runny nose and misery. Not this time. I took Nyquil but I slept shallowly for 8 hours, and now I'm awake at 4 am with a godawful headache and my entire body feels terrible. Please, someone shoot me, it's truly awful :sad:

I've been crying and crying. I've been really depressed for the past few days but I won't give up.

Awww.... sorry yer feelin' that way, Srijita. That's how ah've been feelin' as well. :sad: Though, feel like givin' up. Ah've feel souncomfortable around ma own family - cannae hide ma true feelings behind a fake smile anymore. :crying:
 
Sounds like a sinus infection maybe, Opal? Hot steam helps a lot, neti pot and drink lots of water. Nyquil is not good, mostly booze and drugs.. Also try garlic. Lots of garlic as it is soo good for infection raw garlic. Also ACV apple cider vinegar.. this looks helpful. Try homeopathic it's the way to go.

feel better!

Thanks. I did take more Nyquil, though, haha. I think it's fine if you're just looking to knock yourself out so you can sleep through your misery. I had a cup of tea and took a second dose and went back to bed around 5 am and slept until 11, woke up feeling much better and my nose isn't as bad and headache is gone. I think the worst of it is over, now I'll start to recover. Thank goodness. This is one awful cold.

The other day I was shopping and there was an extroverted salesman who really put me on edge. His hands were always flying around and he was always in my space and he kept handing me things to test them out.

I had a hard time concentrating on what he was saying because I can't stand taking things from people and I hate it when someone hands me something... I can never take it without trembling and I basically have to force myself to put my hands out and pretty much every step of the way I'm worried.

Even now I'm thinking about it and getting kind of stressed out about it... it's pretty stupid and irrational to be afraid of things like that but there you go.

Everyone is very upset lately. Is it the holiday season?

Naw... it's f**kin' Easter, ya bawbag!* Of course, it's the Holiday season. Sorry, that was'nae nice o' me, Mickey... Hawd on, a minute. Awright. Deep breath. Calm doon. Huv a shortbread biscuit & a cuppa tea. There, see... everything's fine.

^ *Wuz that me, there. Am sorry. Gettin' back tae yer original question...

Am usually depressed around this time o' year. Mainly because ah cannae be arse write oot Christmas card, there a waste ah money, man. Yet ye huv send them every bloody year. Here's an idea: Keep the yin that ye got fae me last year. That way, ah save a couple o' quid and a tree.

But then, the winter, to me, is like cheese - ah f**kin' hate it!

But what's really gettin' ma tits as of late, is the fact ma white, arrogant, "Right-about-everything. Head up 'er arse!" step-sister doesnae see any problem wi' comparin' me, jokingly - in her mind - to a Middle Eastern sterotype - Clue: It's starts wi' the letter "T" and ends in "...ist" Correct, you guessed right! You win a years supply o' condoms. In your case, four - fur the EIGHTH F**KIN' TIME! :kickingmyself:

Geez! Racist much, Casper...?! Ah mean, joke's a f**kin' joke. But that... That's takin' the pure piss, so it is. Same racist joke, 8 times. Bugger me, how original! Either that or some women aren't funny...? But that's another thing, entirely. It's no' gettin' on ma nerves. Honest! Despite remind me o' some bad school memories ah thought ah'd suppressed. Actually... Right folks, listen up. Here's joke tellin' advice fae the aggressive-shite Scottish gobshite who isn't aw that funny. Don't want tae hear it, well... tough-titty! ::p:

Ready...? Bagpipe drone, please... If ye say or tell a joke once that you thinks funny, and it DOESNAE get a laugh. DON'T repeat it in the hope it'll get a laugh the 2nd or 3rd times! Too soon. Or tae put it another way: Ye don't f**kin' hammer away at it repeatedly, like Peter Sutcliffe tryin' tae assemble a f**kin' Ikea wardrobe, ya stupid, f**kin' ranga*!

Oh! And if a joke get an awkward laugh, followed by a narrowed-eyed look. Yer either weird or you've just pissed somebuddy off. Friend, family member, a supporter of certain rival football team which you, yerself, don't support, a religious faith, deity or person... Wait, why did ah start writin' this?

* Nae idea why ah said "ranga", by the way. Ma sister isnae a even redhead. Ach! Ye get bored o' callin' some (c)unt a (c)unt, don't ye? Oops, there's that word again! Hope ah don't get ban fur speakin' ma harsh, native muther tongue? Though, tae be fair, when ah say the c-word, ah actually mean "idiot", really.

** Pejorative words sound funny, especially in an angry Scottish accent :sarcastic:

By jings, this rant's actually pretty effin' terrfyin' - and ah wrote the f**kin' thing - if ye imagine it spoken in accent as ye read it. Goan, ah dare youse! Sorry if ah spit in yer eye, by the way.

I SO hate that too. I know it's a tool they use to make you stay and listen to what they say, and it makes rejecting them so much harder. And when you try to give it back they ignore you completely. You can't blame them for doing their job well, but arghh them!
