Migraine Update

#Migraine #ChronicHeadaches #postconcussivesyndrome #SleepApnea

my neurologist was very kind and prescribed me some vitamins and rescue medications. She also wants me to have a sleep study to rule out sleep apnea as a cause of worsening migraine and tension headaches.

I'm having less headaches and migraines this week which almost makes me feel like an imposter. Does anyone ever feel that way?

Making Presentations, Convincing Goldfish & Ending Controversy!

Making Presentations, Convincing Goldfish & Ending Controversy! - #DwhellOnIt Episode 65

📺 - tinyurl.com/pm9phwyx

🗣 - "I can't be optimistic that we're going to solve it all when it comes to #trans #individuals . The conversation, and the controversy, all come from the same place. It comes from the same people, the same reasons and gets promoted by the same behaviours. It's all identical. If we can solve racism, we can solve transphobia, so I'm doing what I can. I'm not optimistic, but if I don't do anything about it, I don't have any right to complain about it happening either."

Being Common, Being Famous, the Past Life & the Real Life

Being Common, Being Famous, the Past Life & the Real Life - #DwhellOnIt Episode 64

📺 - tinyurl.com/2p988rxn

🗣 - "Sure, there are #trans #individuals who had their sex assigned at birth by a doctor who has never known them. And accepted by people who assumed they knew what was best for you. And then followed office administrators #stamping papers and typing on keyboards. Assigning a gender identity to someone who never even had a voice in things, let alone having a voice, period. And then, #saying , 'No, my gender identity does not align with my sex assigned at birth.' Thanks for that, by the way, everybody."

Upright and conscious

This is how I now reply when people ask if I'm ok or how I am doing, mostly because they often don't listen or want a truthful reply. And mostly these days it's the most I can fully achieve.
I am in a very uncertain and complex stage in my life right now.
Earlier this year I went sick from work long term and while off sick I was made redundant. This not being the worst news and shortly after that I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and told I may have had a heart event (such as a heart attack) at a previous unknown time. Since then my housing situation which has not been the best is now threatened as a new company takes over turning it into supported housing and while I have yet to receive official notice to vacate I know it has already been encouraged for us to move on from the property, the difficulty being I am no longer in work and have been told I will not get private housing without being in employment, self employed, a student or retired. I am essentially in a loophole. The building I am in for the past two years has also been reclassified and has asked for me to pay back taxes of over £2000 which is crazy, I don't have anywhere near any money, currently living on full benefits. Nothing is going well. This week I found out an acquaintance I helped once by giving a good parcel personally ended her life. It really does seem such a simple and peaceful option. I know she is no longer suffering. I always read those post stating if you could say 3 words to your younger self what would you say and I often come to the same conclusion "kill yourself now". I have suffered so much in my life and it just feels like a game, I'm on a level I am not equipped to play I am consistently underwater and have little reason to complete this game of life except to be able to complete it. But is that much of a reason to live? I'm not actively suicidal but I do question why do we put up with being alone and struggling just to die eventually anyway.
In much need of validation and positivity.

a little introduction

hi! i would prefer to go by void on here :) my pronouns are he/him, and im transgender. ive been struggling a lot with isolation due to mental illnesses/my own issues with autism and adhd. i was told that this is a space for all sorts of people with those types of struggles, and from what ive seen, it is!

i would like to try and make some friends through here, and find some sort of community so i dont feel so isolated all of the time.
thank you for reading, and its nice to meet you all :)

(here, a picture of my cat as compensation for reading)

🗣 - "I acknowledge that there are failed systems. I don't go to bed worrying about it. I don't lose #Sleep over it. It's because other #people are failures. Other #people are emotionally intolerant. Other #people are incapable of being compassionate, understanding, educatable, or competent, or however it goes. That's all them. Every time I get deadnamed or misgendered, I stand taller because I'm the better person."
