ER's are not as fun as they are on TV. IV's on the other hand, are not praised enough on TV, especially when you're dehydrated:D (And hospital food does suck, bleh)

what happened?
#1642
I have an exam tomorrow
Am I spending too much time here?
lol

I guess I was super dehydrated, probably from all the throwing up I was doing. The doctors couldn't figure out why though, they kept doing tests that proved me healthy and them wrong. As long as I'm not back in a few days I don't mind though.

yikes!

good to know you're ok

😮

You're feeling better now, yeah?

oh gosh vj, hope you get better soon!! have you tried eating salty food and such?
is this what working at McDonalds does to a philosopher? hope not, maybe just weird coincidence yikes..?

edit: good to hear it's better, hope it continues to improve!! Well, people can survive lifetimes without milk so I'm sure you'll live... maybe check some vegan recipes?

I'm drinking as much as I can, it doesn't help it's in the 80's today though :😛: What really does me in is sleeping for long periods of time, because I have yet to master the art of sleep drinking. (Another pro to the IV 😀)

Oh, pfft, it's easy. Just put a bottle filled with water in your mouth, close your eyes and sleep.

..No, no.. wait. My spider-sense is telling me that this is a bad idea. Back to the drawing board. 🙄

i don't think cow's milk was ever intended to nourish human beings - i think it was designed for baby cows

water, on the other hand, is good for every animal and plant species on the planet

Ohh haha, the IV is also a great hangover cure. Ahhh, that was a strange day.

I started seeing a therapist today and i really liked the session and surprisingly the therapist as well. Ive tried it a couple of times and theyve seemed either fake(the i understand and how does it make u feel approach?), or well just that, it unnerves me when they do that 😠. But today i met with a new therapist at my school and i genuinely like him and his company and the way he handled our session. I usually feel ambivalent about 95% of the people i meet but i think im actually going to enjoyy being arounf this person, i though i was emotionless there for a while so im glad the session made me feel sad, anghry, glad, excited (something). i dont know how to explain it but he knows how to analyze me overall without making me feel uncomfortable or like he got it wrong. This made my day grrrrrrreat, cant wait to go to session next week.

My self-consciousness has been at its worst lately. I think I'm going downhill. 🙁

I know how you feel, I had 2 psychiatrists before my current one, I think it's just a case of personalities clicking, and it's worked out really well since I started seeing him

Is it a horrible thing to call in sick to work when you're not really 'sick'???

When I called in to leave a message on the machine, somebody actually picked up! Nobody is supposed to be there this early! I had called 1 minute before to leave a message and hung up before the beep, and this time somebody picked up :O and it was one of my bosses. Well as soon as I opened my mouth to tell them that I was sick, my voice actually adopted a fractured-gargled-obviously sick tone.

I mean, I'm not calling in for no reason, I am having a bit of an allergic reaction, which I knew would come in the morning (which usually supplies me with enough mucus to fake SICK sick really well 😉 She definitely believed me) and I only got a mere 4 hours of sleep on top of it. There is NO way I can do 8 hours of physically demanding work now. I probably should have just used that reason....

I already feel guilty though.

No, it's not a terrible thing to do. It only becomes something bad when they're very understaffed, and they have to do something important that can't wait.

Besides, it's not like you're calling in sick to go to the beach or something. An allergic reaction in combination with little sleep has a devastating effect on a person. You're incapacitated, and recognizing your limit is definitely a good thing.

Does anyone else sometimes press their eyeballs moderately hard and stay that way for a while, watching blobs and weird shapes appear in their mind? And when you take your hands off, you can't see for half a second?

Sometimes when my head hurts, that seems to help somehow.

I always do that, whenever I rub my eyes I press them and do this. One of those blobs is my best friend too.

Really though, it also helps me relax a bit.

I used to do that when I was a child.

Not saying you're childish of course.

no but i did it now and feel i should have not. :🙁:

i think the little blobs are part the eye, unless i'm seeing separate blobs.
