I got into the book I was reading and couldn’t put it down. I read until 4:30 am and then tossed and turned a bit. So got 3 hours. Ugh. My daughter is coming over today to help me get my email back. So I can’t go back to bed. Oh, it’s hard to keep my eyes awake. The book was captivating and a real escape from reality.

I ended up getting two classics in perfect condition for $6.48 total all together including tax.

Grimms Fairy Tales and Pride and Prejudice

Excellent buys blue bird.

Threw up a few times on a 2 hour long trip. Then I fell asleep the last 45 minutes. Now I'm lying down feeling achy and stuff. But my GI office did call me back half an hour ago and they are trying to work some things out with my insurance and a different med.

I got a whole bunch of Sprite chill zero sugar since Sprite helps my stomach.

Called pdoc’s office. Had to talk with someone from clinical coverage as I didn’t know 12-1 is their lunch time. So case manager wasn’t answering. Hence the clinical coverage person. Told her I want more gabapentin as it stopped putting me to sleep at 100 mg. And that and Vraylar are basically the last two psych drugs I can take. Pdoc said I might have to think about ect if these meds don’t work! Pdoc won’t be back till the end of the month. No idea why. I’m tired of only sleeping 4 hours a night. They’re calling me back. Might have to drive to the pharmacy today but that’s ok I guess. I don’t want anything else because I react to other psych drugs!

Possible trigger:

it is 2pm, I haven’t eaten anything solid today, and I’m too tired to get off my ace to fix something up or take my noon med.

This is ridiculous.

Blue_Bird · Nov 08, 2024, 03:10 PM

Got my seasonal teas today. Also got some boxes of regular peppermint tea, boxes of green tea, decaf coffee, and cocoa kcups. So I am all set for the chilly season 😀

I’m gonna read some of pride and prejudice today with a tea and my cinnamon vanilla scented wax melting. Feels nice and cozy

I feel pretty good. Been sleeping well. Gonna have some spicy chili for dinner later. Maybe watch an episode or two or Naruto as well.

Nammu · Nov 08, 2024, 04:05 PM

Well blank it y blank I still don’t have my email. They rejected my verification. Told me to try in a couple of weeks. If they don’t help me soon I’ll just have to figure out how to get another email account set up.

On good news I took my daughter out to eat at a mom and pop Thai restaurant. It’s authentic and delicious.

Victoria'smom · Nov 08, 2024, 04:29 PM

Just cut my parents out of my life 😭 I hope one day they understand.

Blueberrybook · Nov 08, 2024, 05:41 PM

I'm doing pretty well, having some seasonal allergies kicking in. I went to the pharmacy and the library (daughter drove...eek!). I wasn't TOO anxious today, but I think I was dissociating some and that might have been why.

I went to the dermatologist Wednesday to have an abnormal mole removed to hopefully clear the margins. It was fine yesterday, but overnight, it hurt a TON. It was even hurting in my dream! It still hurts today, I'm trying to be better about cleaning it twice a day and putting bacitricin on it. I really hope it will calm down and stay out of my dreams tonight.

Moose72 · Nov 08, 2024, 06:04 PM

Never got the text! And they are closed Monday! I went to the pharmacy hoping they’d have called it in at the last minute but nope. So I’m going to take two tonight and sat-mon too then hopefully i can get a new script Tuesday. I can’t go 3 or 4 more days getting up at 3!

HALLIEBETH87 · Nov 08, 2024, 06:43 PM

HALLIEBETH87 · Nov 08, 2024, 09:29 PM

HALLIEBETH87 · Nov 08, 2024, 09:45 PM

im in panic mode. ima have to quit shcool or rather get kicked out. eveyrone will be disappointed and laugh at me. i cant handel this. ive worked so hard.

BeyondtheRainbow · Nov 08, 2024, 09:49 PM

Did the assignment just not show up? Even if you missed one your professor may work with you. My mom is a professor and she would/does every single semester. I know it's hard when things like this come up on a Friday evening but it's not all over yet. Is Ben with you? Can he help you calm down a bit (note that I'd be panicking too)? Can you email the professor so maybe you'll hear from them over the weekend?

HALLIEBETH87 · Nov 08, 2024, 09:55 PM

im tlking to 988. my mind is going off the deep end. i just wanna quit life

HALLIEBETH87 · Nov 08, 2024, 09:55 PM

she siad shed look at it. no bens at his stpid AA meeting h goes to eeryn ight. i had perfect scores til now

Moose72 · Nov 08, 2024, 09:58 PM

Finally talked with a nurse who got ahold of the doctor who said to take 2 of the 100s and we’ll see if I stay asleep tonight. If not she’ll have the doctor call in a script for the 300s. So there ya go! And I know Walgreens pharmacy is open tomorrow.

BeyondtheRainbow · Nov 08, 2024, 09:59 PM

Judging from both my mom and sister who are both college professors your work to date will help them think this is a one time thing and work with you. I obviously can't speak for your professor but I do know this stuff comes up and asking for help immediately is the biggest thing. Keep breathing. Glad you called 988.

HALLIEBETH87 · Nov 08, 2024, 10:01 PM

i hope thye dont send police. im pertty upset but didnt say anythig about bng suicidal

Crazy Hitch · Nov 08, 2024, 11:05 PM

So I’ve been researching the tablets my gp gave me for my irregular periods. I’m 46. She’s given me hormone replacement therapy that has a small dose of ostregen and progesterone. I worry about the side effects though. It continually mentions breast cancer and stroke and blood clots so I will have to make a decision before my next period as to whether or not the benefits outweigh the risks.

Mountaindewed · 12:46 AM

I'm in so much middle right side and back pain. Tylenol is useless. The heating pad didn't help either. Idk if I should just go to the ER. I need an abdominal scan. I haven't had one in a couple years. Just the endoscopys.

Possible trigger:

if I had to choose between going in a year from pancreatic cancer or 40 more years of this pain I'd take the year out route

Moose72 · Nov 09, 2024, 05:42 AM

Well on 200 mg I made it to 5 am. That’s an improvement anyway.

Moose72 · Nov 09, 2024, 06:41 AM

I’m at starbucks! The nurse is going to call me at 9. Guess she doesn’t want to get up at 5 either! Then hopefully she’ll have the doctor call in a script for 300 gabapentin. I still feel just as crappy right now after getting up at 5 as I did getting up at 3!

I have a history of blood clots- one from surgery and one from an unknown source. They are serious! I myself can’t take HRT because of that risk so if I were you I wouldn’t take the birth control pills. But that’s just my experience. This also means I can’t take HRT when I hit menopause either.
