what if explaining myself more thoroughly worked this time

since this is the "headaches and weird med interactions" website and my GP was less than helpful, asking here:

i take sertraline every morning. i was recently prescribed a triptan and naproxen for migraines.

monday evening i took one dose of the triptan and naproxen for...a migraine. tuesday evening (precisely 24 hours later) i had diarrhea with some spots of (bright red) blood.

do weird med interactions and/or triptan side effects turn up 24 hrs later? or was this more likely unrelated and i'm good to take them next time my head has caltrops in it

i think a lot about the "takes things literally/bad at metaphors" autism diagnostic a) bc i always fail it by taking the question too literally and b) bc i am very, very good at metaphors it's just that my metaphors are things that no one else has come up with bc my brain thinks abt metaphors Differently.

plsd to report that 12 sessions with a therapist has made not a single dent on a specific trigger, and also that when i blacklist triggers maybe i should stop opening those posts

there are several ways in which my autism makes being a dog trainer harder than necessary (and many in which it makes it easier, don’t get me wrong) but definitely i keep running into the advice that for my business to grow, i need to target the type of client i like

and i’ve done some thinking and come to the conclusion that i like clients who have the following traits

good vibes

understandably this doesn’t help very much

i deserve praise for vacuuming for the first time in 3 months even if it was just half a room
