I’m sure they would reframe that as learning.....we all do that. But wondering about your town could you move and start again?

I don't really know. My credit is terrible because I dropped the ball when I was sick, so I can't get a place on my own, even though I could afford it.

I rember in the past at one point you were talking about moving near your sister or something?

Either way sounds like your roommate is a piece of work....I’m not sure if you would do worse with a random roommate in some new city.

Moving in with my sister would be nice. But that could only happen after her kids move out if they do any time soon. My sister is having a real crisis right now. She's such a good person.

I have nothing good to eat and I have the munchies. Suckage.
After an hour of being irrationally pissy with everyone around me I’m feeling better.

Today I finally felt normal gastrointestinally. No nausea, and no diarrhea! At last!

So I ate. Otherwise, I'm hoping for the one bonus of having 'stomach flu', weight loss! They weighed me on the third or something but I was too sick to note my weight or care.

Actually, I have more than that bonus: I also got rid of the swelling of my feet and ankles in my dehydration. So that's good!

My hair got very matted and it took about 30 minutes to finally get a hair brush through it over the weekend. Handfuls of hair had to be ripped out, it was traumatic. So I'd better keep up with brushing it. I used to get so freaked out by my hair in my apartment, but I wasn't doing so well there in general.

My hair is the longest I've ever had it. I want to cut it really short but I'd look terrible.

I drank two 20oz bottles of Coke today, first in almost two weeks because the machine wasn't restocked at all a week ago. It tastes incredible. I told myself I could have a third if I really want it. But I'll just go get a pitcher of ice water instead. And eat a small amount of chocolate. Maybe not though, just a touch of nausea this hour.

The past two days, except for today, I had maybe a half cup of yogurt for my evening snack and I believe that's what made me get better. Wish I had some chocolate pudding and a huge milkshake, lol, @cog!

And I want french fries. I was thinking of asking my roommate if she would like to order in pizza on Wednesday maybe. If we order at like 11:00am, we could eat it all afternoon. I could certainly just get it myself though. Roll Call 142! I will see... I also want to order McDonald's. Does Uber eats have a minimum order?

Hey guys, just woke up. I went to sleep pretty early. Will probably take an hour or two nap later today.

Morning,

I’ve got a sore throat. I’m sure it’s a cold

Just going to take it easy today.

omg I'm so hungry. Trying to be careful with what I eat with the seroquel though. Normally I don't have much of an appetite. Now I wake up feeling like I want to devour a whole damn cake or something

I’m sort of just waiting for the cold to hit properly. Been to the shops and stocked up on food so I don’t have to go out tomorrow if I feel worse.

I remember when I started olanzapine I had sugar cravings. I’d buy bags of cookies and eat them all in one day. It did get better with time though.

Hey everyone. How are things going?

I'm doing pretty well. Finally have some downtime for a day tomorrow. Got back from my partner's yesterday after some very long holiday plans and events. Now I'm just recouping and getting back on track for the daily life.


What's everyone up to?

Went to see the hand surgeon. Definitely a ganglion cyst. She isn’t sure if the size and location is compressing the nerve or if I have a pinch somewhere else from my elbow to my wrist. So I have to see a neurologist then she’ll set me up to have the cyst surgically removed. She said draining it would leave an 80% chance of recurrence. And with surgery it’s only 20%.

Ew. 2 - 6 weeks before returning to regular activities. Good thing I’m right handed. Going to have to type one handed for a while.

I’ve been done with work since 8:30 but some guy called and will only speak to me. I called him back but he’s in the middle of something so I have to call again in 30. Like I have nothing better to do...okay maybe I don’t but it’s still a pain in the ***.

That's how the Rexulti made me. It did go away after a few months but it was horrible when it was happening.

Good mid-morning all. I'm procrastinating at work today. I don't have much motivation today. I should get going on some stuff but I've just been surfing PC for half an hour. Kit
