Life Updates

i hope i can use this thread also to load off some steam.
godddd. im stressed out.
im studying for 9 finals due in two weeks, one of which is a choir assessment. it has 9 memorization sections and I have to sing in front of people. im selectively mute so this isnt gonna be easy for me. especially considering I hate HATE other people hearing me or precieving me half the time. anyway. i hung out with some friends today during lunch and we talked about five nights of freddys and other general stuff.
i did get to walk a bit during my physical education so thats fine. i like the fresh air sometimes. today was kind of fun. i got to eat some popeyes and a nice warm mammon with cheese on top. i also got to talk to my boyfriend since we got home and i played some genshin. to wrap it all up i read over 30 chapters of Heavens Official Blessing and some Mo Dao Zu Shi. I guess today was okay. I dont feel so well though, maybe im sick. tomorrow ill talk about the walk out im attending. if anyone wants me to continue updating let me know! sorry this is a wordy mess of some kind, i usually never unload my feelings or what happens on a day to day basis to people.
 
Back at it again, with a Friday summary

God. Friday was crazy to say the least. We had a walkout in most of our schools; and a large student-led protest. It was pretty cool to see my classmates exercising their rights. Anyway, I could not go because I thought I had COVID. So I got sent to do a test, luckily it's the weekend and if the negative test was wrong I'll be alright. I went to the thrift store yesterday and got like what two shirts? And I went to my local boba store. I've been going there since they opened August a year or two ago. Their food is amazing, I usually get the brown sugar milk tea. I spent the rest of the day with my boyfriend before se both went to sleep. I got a lot of things done also! I turned in my work for class, traded on ACNH, did some comissons, and talked some to the people I love.
8/10 overall
 
just very stressed lately. Second semester is usually the hardest for me and my math grades are already slipping away. School is also just awful lately thanks to having awful teachers in the subjects that I need most help in and I usually end up having to teach myself.
Been zoning out a lot lately and my mental health has been at its worst for the past few months and i'm not even sure why.

On the happier side, I finally settled on a first and middle name for myself. I haven't tried them out yet but I really hope they work out and I won't have to stress about it anymore and go by my last name.
Jazz Band also started up at my school for second semester and its been a lot of fun, especially since i'm not the only one on trombone anymore. Very nice to have friends who I can help out.
 
i’ve been incredibly sick the past week or so (and we’re not sure what exactly it is) so i’ve just been recuperating. :’-) it’s really taxing because I’ve been too tired to stay awake for long so I haven’t gotten to talk to my friends much. I miss my girlfriend so bad or do my homework.

once i have a little more energy to do things again i plan on picking the yoga routine i abandoned last year back up though :’D new year new attempt
 
i'm actually super grateful something like this exists here. i've always had a lot of illnesses but mostly all chronic - asthma, endometriosis and anxiety with a good ol' spice of depression. i am seeking treatment and am under a therapist but still just taking an antidepressant which doesn't seem to be doing much. i have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow pm so i'm hoping he can give me something else to try.
i've already been diagnosed with endometriosis via surgery which is the only way to diagnose it, and because of worsening symptoms i've been fighting to get another surgery for just over 3+ years now. last week i had an appointment with a new consultant and have been put through so hopefully within the next few months, i'll be having another surgery which is super exciting for me.

other than that, gaming and working is all i do, lol. i work in a pharmacy and have done since before covid, and it's just got so chaotic. i'm wondering if that's why my antidepressants seem to be not helping imo. but i think life is going a little bit more in a good direction for now. i'm hoping, fingers crossed, that it continues.

i've just basically used this thread to rant oml i'm sorry, i don't have anyone in real life that i can open up to so this is quite new for me lol
 
Hey, it's me again☆☆
God I'll be honest this weekend was so uneventful. I'm probably gonna get some online work done. But nothing remarkable happened through the week. All I've been doing is some art trades, I developed my Genshin Impact OCS some more, plaged some Animal Crossing New Horizons, read some Heavens Offical Blessing, spent time with my boyfriend, and watched episode 2 of Sasaki to Miyano. I have today off so I guess I'll just do my leftover homework. My mom lied to me so we're not going out. That really sucks but hey, I can't just go out by myself. I could, but there's no point in waiting for 10 buses just to go to a Target. God, everythings at a stand-still. Atleast I made it through the week. :) As for something I did that was good, I atleast finished most of my school work during the week and I took some time for self care.
 
i’m getting all 4 wisdom teeth + 2 other teeth removed on february 25th. i’m kind of scared because this is my first surgical procedure even though this is a minor thing. at least i’ll be in twilight instead of being fully asleep which was something that i was afraid of. a month after this i’ll be able to get braces which is something im happy about.

It's nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be. I was expecting to be in so much pain, I'd cave-in and take the painkillers my doctor prescribed me. I didn't need any of that. Just be careful what you eat

I feel that. I try not to bring my health issues around friends unless I have good news mixed in. I don't like downloading all my problems onto loved ones, and I don't want to ruin the vibe in group chats. Outside of IBD support groups, I only feel comfortable talking about it on forums and imageboards.

My mom is sick and we still don't know what it is. She has been reluctant to get through the examinations, as she fears what she can have. But today she agreed to do what it's needed. I really, really hope it's something simple and not too dangerous or life-threatening.

It's also stupidly hot here. Today we had a feels like temperature of 50.8C, which is basically the same as getting cooked...
 
Okay so wow I feel really stupid but also very relieved at the same time.
My professor gave me comments on the case paper I was writing and said "the diagnosis should be a pain diagnosis", and the way I understood that was that I had to do a major overhaul of the diagnosis part in order to cater to the pain aspect. I didn't bother to look at my notes until today and now that I did, I realized I didn't need to do any overhaul, I literally just had to change one sentence. At least that's over and done with.

Not my life update but my boyfriend's: his dog gave birth the other day, and he's been preoccupied since. I just find it funny whenever he'd randomly count to 7. It's cute hearing him counting the puppies every now and then.
 
I had to have my cat euthanized yesterday and I am absolutely devastated. I feel like I can’t breathe. I can’t afford to spiral and I don’t know how to cope. She was my best friend. I was already severely depressed.

I'm so sorry for your loss ❤ :(
 
I'm going to be spending the day with my friend on Wednesday, it's been like several months since I've hung out with anyone, I haven't had much social interaction in person really at all recently so it will be nice. We're probably going to play the Arkham Horror LCG.
I'm trying to eat healthier, and start getting some exercise. Not much else going on this week, I just have two appointments at the end of the week, one with my therapist and one with my psychiatrist but that's about it. Have a lot of cleaning to do in my apartment. Also need to stop by the library to drop some books off.

I am so very sorry. I know how devastating the loss of a pet can be and I hope that you will heal with time.
 
This week has been so stressful, honestly. My boyfriends had covid for TWO WEEKS and I'm extremly worried for him. He's coughing up blood and his parents aren't doing much to help him. I've been doing so much homework and finals all week. Not to mention there's so much arguing and drama in my personal life. Either than that I had some of my favorite resturant over the weekend and atleast my boyfriends still around. I can't say much positive about everything but I'm doing my best to stay strong and power through it. Finding optimisim is difficult but it's my best for now. Either than that I've been reading Tian Gan Cing Fu again as well as drawing a lot. I'm trying to keep my mind off of the stress, I guess.
 
I had an appointment with my psychiatrist today, she is going to help me get into a vocational rehabilitation program so I can start working part-time. She's going to give the info to my therapist (they work in the same office) and I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow so we should be able to talk about that. I'm excited, I will be so proud of myself once I'm working. She's also making an adjustment to one of my meds, so I'm hopeful that goes well.

Super happy that Pokémon Legends Arceus is coming out tomorrow! I'll probably order a copy soon. :)

I'm going to try getting myself back on the treadmill. I'd like to lose some weight and get in better shape.
 
talked to my uncle a bit ago. my grandpa's funeral will be held sometime in May, in the meantime he will be cremated. I asked my uncle if he had the old Casio keyboard and the pic of my grandpa standing next to his '70 VW Beetle, and apparently the keyboard is long gone but he still has the picture so he's gonna give it to me. I'm really happy about that, it's unfortunate that the keyboard is gone though.

I'm honestly still in disbelief that he's gone. I know he's been bad for a few years with his dementia, but my depression has kinda made everything since 2017 seem like a blur so I really can't believe he got that bad and now he's gone.
 
I went to a studio ghiblli exhibit nearby on Saturday, and it was really cool. I'm absolutely obsessed with Studio Ghibli, so this place was extremely exciting to go to. I bought a Hayao Miyazaki concept art book, another Totoro plush, Totoro playing cards, and Totoro chopsticks.
