Tw vomit + sickness

So I may not be on here for a while erm you see after talking to my bestie about the discord situation I got a migraine.

And usually when I have a migraine I curl up in a corner, feel sorry for myself and watch Dan and Phil. I don’t know why but they’re the only thing I can stand to watch when this happens.

Which is kind of funny because they are not quiet people.Anything else at that volume absolutely not I’ve left the front room because my parents were talking too loud but not these two.

I watched the golf with friends one in the middle of a migraine…I dunno there’s just something comforting about “Phil! You hit it right into the dead guy!” I guess.

And I was gonna do that but this time I got nausea and unlike the normal kind I get with migraines this was so bad that I could not move my head off the pillow like at all. And well one thing led to another and I threw up pretty violently.

Which was fucking rude, fucking uncalled for and my tummy hurts.

The best comment about this situation came from my little brother who went “really? At your big age?” Sorry I forgot you stop being sick after the age of 7 my bad.

I do feel better than before but still bleh and my head is still fucking killing me…might be time for Dan and Phil.

So yeah I’m just having a day? A week…I dunno how long has it been? I’m on my period too which is just the cherry on top…I’m just having a life.

And as you may expect my thoughts are somehow less coherent than usual my brains like a slushy and I cannot string an analysis together if I tried.

We’re not gonna talk about how long it took me to write this.

Head empty no thoughts which is how you know I’m unwell lol

So yeah I’m alive not well but alive and I’ll see you guys when the world stops trying to beat with a stick.

Whoever’s praying on my downfall take a lunch break maybe.

My kingdom for a ubrogepant prescription

Discord??? Why??? How???

So many people claim to use it, but *how*? and *why*?

It's full of animation. And last time I tried it, yes, it had an accessibility setting to turn off the animation, which was hidden behind animation, and then did not, in fact, turn off the animation. Since then, isn't it requiring identification documents, which is also an accessible nightmare, and a privacy violation?

Now I don't know about you, but the animation left me with migraines, which *hurt*, and make it harder to see or hear.

It's like Xitter, and Google Docs, and Google Migraines, and most Gis systems, and most standard dangerous safety signals, etc.

As of last night, I meet the criteria for chronic migraines.

[lemonycrimes]

I often feel quite terrible when I have to be alone in my room, because I have a migraine, and the rest of the house is too loud. It's a mix of guilt, shame, and just general misery, because I love being around my family, and I don't love being bedridden, because any movement could make me throw up or fall over.

Something that's recently brought me a lot of comfort is my brother's cat. My eldest sibling has a tabby cat named Rocky, I've shared pictures of him before. He brings me so much comfort and happiness when I can't do anything but lay down and stare at the ceiling, because he likes to just lay there with me. He is so cuddly, at times, and that's so nice for me, because I'm a very physically affectionate person, but people can sometimes be too overwhelming, so a cat (who is usually quiet during cuddles, besides purring which is a constant sound that is even) is very comforting.

Anyway, here are some pictures of Rocky being snuggly and eepy.
