Nobody has to say anything. There's really nothing that can be said. My mother didn't know me. She even argued with my sister and me that I was someone else.


I just wanted to report my day.

I now have a water pic and fancy electric toothbrush combo that they think might help, along with a special rinse and a prescription fluoride toothpaste which I've used in the past but had trouble not gagging on.
Lol! Me, too, re: the water pic, prescription toothpaste, prescription mouthwash. There is a lot of damage to my teeth, too. I avoid the dentist when depressed, which is often. That's been a big mistake.

Sweet dreams!

Everything is too loud for me...... The sun, trees, colors, the air.

Raging in my ears.

I just beg for quietness, I’m asking for too much, I guess.

Sorry to hear that. I know it's tough to see that happen to a loved one.

Can you bring family pictures next time? You can reminisce about the happy times your family has had together and maybe the photos themselves will help remind your mother of who you are? Just an idea.

Actually, I was thinking along those same lines. I already know some of the photos I want to take to her.

Had a T appt today. Went well. Talked about how to proceed and not fall back into a similar situation. I like this (probably temporary) T pretty well, though I kind of hope I end up with a little better match longer term.

Tell you what. Getting rid of ex-BF (aka mr. money pit ) and living in a cheaper place is advantageous. I just got another concert ticket. I'm LOVING being able to do that!! (Not that all of a sudden I've got tons of money, these are reasonably priced shows in smaller venues.) Ahhh, music, how I have missed you!! I play music a LOT, which is something that often fell by the wayside with you-know-who despite our high convergence of favorites.

5 happy face rating. That's where I'm at.

Well, I slept from midnight until 4 AM if that counts as doing better (my wake-up time was later). I think I'm going to get back to sleep soon which is good. Part of it is my mouth was hurting after all the dental work so I needed an ibuprofen.

I just miss days when I slept at whatever time, woke for the bathroom and got back to bed without fulling waking so i just fell immediately into a deeper sleep, or days when I just laid down at 10:30 and was asleep at 11 until I woke up without a clock at 4, ready for the day. This waking up stuff is ridiculous and needs to stop.

Time to read until I fall asleep. I hope.

I got sleep!! 6 hours, but whatever. Better than none like the pervious night.

Been building and fixing electronics still. I think I can make a profit of $20 on each item. I have 8 "good" items, so... $160. Woohoo!

Some jackass on eBay sold me a broken item without saying it was broken. It was supposed to be in working condition with bad cosmetic issues. (I bidded on it because I "knew" it "only" had cosmetic issues, nothing else.) So I had only intended to fix the cosmetic stuff. Thankfully I was able to fix the device, though. No extra money spent on fixing it either because I had the materials already. I had to spend 3 hours fixing it, however, because it was complicated and I had to find spare parts in my apartment. :/

Waste of time. I probably should've sent it back to the seller because I'm probably only going to make a $5 profit. (Again, I had to use spare parts that I had bought a while back. Obviously parts cost money.) Might as well just keep the device, I guess. People suck.

Oh, off topic... I'm now debating getting corrective rhinoplasty. It's an elective surgery that will give me back my sense of smell and allow me to breathe through my nose, but I don't know if the pros (regaining smell and breathing) outweigh the cons (paying world's best doctors to fix my nose). I think world top doctors will be very, very costly. But I don't want to go with a mediocre surgeon. I've read and seen horror stories about bad rhinoplasty surgeons. Then people need several surgeries to fix the original botched surgery.

Anyway, I have a dent in the left side of my nose where it was broken, and the bone healed wrong. (I knew that all along because i can feel it even if it's not very visible.) And then a deviated septum according to this different doc. (Makes sense since my nose was crushed inward. I'm guessing the crushed nose pushed the septum.) Plus turbinates are overenlarged. 3 things is a lot to fix at once. And if the doctors can't fix all at once, then I'm obviously going to be paying for multiple surgeries. Not fun.

Doing well...not happy but not down. That might be the blessing. I’d welcome a few spells of bliss or pure happiness. Wouldn’t we all? Some sleep disturbances (between 3-6 hours a night) but nothing I can’t handle.

I see my daughter in 2 weeks when we go hiking and in less then 3 when she comes home for Thanksgiving break. Yay! Missing her today.

I get my test results back on the 12th and am getting a second opinion on my hand from the top guy in town on the 14th.

Spending a quiet day at home cleaning and relaxing with a good book.

Warm wishes to everyone to have a peaceful weekend and sending hugs to everyone that needs them.

I had sinus surgery and they fixed my deviated septum while in there. My turbines were a disaster so it was a legit procedure and my insurance covered it. Double check about how they will “ bill” the services. As Mine put coverable surgery needs first as my ENT did so it was covered.

Still looking up to see the gutter but can’t get much lower so that is some how comforting a bit.

I see my Pdoc Monday for my normal 3 month visit. I doubt we will make Med changes as they typically make matters worse tbh.

Time to just white knuckle it and ride this filthy wave longer.

Someone tell the sun to be quiet , thanks.

I am so exhausted that I don’t have a word for it. I slept until 3pm just trying to catch my body up to working again. Stupid wonderful Seroquel! Went office supply shopping I think I am going to keep common referred specialties in a binder for quick reference. I did a bunch of school work today.

I feel the happiest I have felt in a long while it feels like everything is falling into place again. My relationship is stronger than it has felt in a while. We took the cousins shoe shopping and I uh bought another pair of heels. Why my stupid boyfriend be so tall. Oh well the are cute.

See my doc Thursday taking an early day from work deffinatly need a stronger dose of Prilosec.

Hugs to everyone
