What's Bothering You?

I haven't been able to see my dentist in 3 years and I just learned we have a new one who my entire family hates so that's very discouraging and makes me scared of when I'll be going back. I liked the old dentist, she was so nice. This new one sounds like a terrible person you don't want even looking at your teeth...

Edit: Turns out it's so bad that my mom was already going to make sure I don't see that particular dentist. So that's reassuring.

my old charger broke, i was using it until my phone battery was regressing even though it was plugged in. i went to target and got a brand new one for $14 and it doesn’t even work unless i hold it at an angle 🙃 at least my grandma let me use hers because she doesn’t use her phone often.

i sure hope target accepts returns where the box was opened.
 
I have a cold sore in a familiar spot. It’s the exact same spot I had one over a decade ago that got infected and I had to get the infection removed by a doctor. It’s just a regular cold sore, but it being in that exact spot brings back memories I don’t want to remember. Luckily, I have cream for things like this. I always have cream handy for cold sores.
 
My head hurts from all of the on-and-off crying that I’ve been doing these past days.

I can’t wait for this weekend. Not checking my email for updates on my application will mean that I won’t have to think about my future; and the relatives who will move away.
 
hate that my body's natural reaction to a strrssful/difficult situation, even if said situation has been resolved, is lingering anxiety. like why am I still feeling this anxious? I almost feel like I'm trembling and I feel so uncomfortable even though I'm trying to get cozy.

but I sometimes forget that I need to be gentle with myself when this happens. that's just how my mind works, and there's nothing to be ashamed of because you can't just fix an anxiety disorder. you can try to work on it, but it's always there. I don't want to be made to feel like I'm stupid, or simply wallowing in my anxiety because I'm too lazy to do something about it. because I realistically can't, I just have to learn to live with it. sometimes that happens. and sometimes anxiety disorders really suck. I and others need to have some more compassion.
 
just feeling so sad and tired today. sad about a lot of things. tried to cheer myself up by looking at what my friends are happy about, and I just started to cry. I wish some things didn't have to be the way they are.

thinking about taking more time off from work since I'm supposed to go in this afternoon, but I hate using my sick time. but I also feel awful and so tired, idk if i can trust myself to even drive my mom 10 min to her appt, much less 40 min to and from work. I don't want to do anything, I just want to go to sleep.

I also miss my friends and I desperately don't want to be an attention seeker. I'm in a mood where I feel like I would be a burden. I don't know. 😞
 
Honestly I'm so tired of gamers defending the Switch like it's equal to Playstation and Xbox, when it's not. It's a great handheld console but let's not overlook the fact its hardware is outdated and can't run many games outside of ones designed specifically for Nintendo. There's a reason why the Steam Deck exists and why so many gamers rate it a lot higher than the Switch.

hey guys! just found out what the problem is!!!
i'm going through adderall/prescription amphetamine withdrawal :) so awesome that it's extremely difficult to get this medication from my doctor because of an absurd amount of rules and regulations on TOP of the manufacturing shortage so that they can raise the price on it.
 
My 43 year old brother decided to start acting like a child again this morning. His behaviour has been great since the beginning of September but he's turning again. So much so, that my Dad told him that he thinks it's time he looked for a home of his own. Seriously, I mean starting an argument at 7 o'clock in the morning, and he knew we were heading to an appointment.

Yep. I’m mostly a Nintendo loyalist, but I never ignore facts. Nintendo is only ever equal to the other systems with 1st party titles, because they know exactly how to cater to their hardware.
Playing something like Fortnite on PC vs Switch, the deficiencies are very obvious.

Switch is long overdue for an upgraded version, but they're dragging it out for as long as they can

Yeah I've been there a while ago when I was in high school. Haven't been on the drug since my senior year. Wasn't worth it for me, honestly.
 
I mentioned how much I appreciate everyone's kindness and respect on this forum yesterday. Today, however, was unfortunately not the case in real life.

Several high school students I transport were being extremely rude and disrespectful to me AND one of the principals this afternoon. I was told to wait at the school for a few minutes for someone, and everyone already on the bus lost their minds. They tried to yell at me (using some very colorful expletives) to just go and leave them behind, who cares about them, etc., and were continuously doing so when me and the principal tried to calm them down. Now, I like my job, but it really bothers me when people do not respect the things I do for them. Most of the students can't drive yet, and should be thankful that they get to at least go home safely on a bus that I (try to) keep clean almost all the time. I cannot safely perform my job if they are going to continuously treat me and the other responsible students like garbage.

I had an interview today regarding a promotion within the school district. Hopefully I can be considered, as I always try my best to put in my best effort. You guys can agree, right?
 
Has this place gotten boring to me? Ever since the Halloween event ended, I hid in the shadows for almost a month.

Moreover, I haven't even bothered sharing my thoughts on each thread as I have been too lazy to post on anything really.

I mean yes, I will be back when the Christmas event comes around, but that's a basic given. I could just come back now, but trying to resist the lazy thoughts is tough.
 
Ever since I got on my new meds my anxiety has been manageable, but now it’s impossible for me to do anything with my ADHD. It’s quite painful knowing I’m stuck in an unfocused, constantly moving loop. I can’t stay still, I can’t stay focused, I can’t do anything.
 
I really need to go in to work today, so I'm gonna go back to sleep for a little while and pray that my sinus headache doesn't come back. my day yesterday was pretty awful so I would really appreciate if today was better. 😔

edit: still not feeling well. I must actually be sick, though I don't know what it is because I don't have any congestion. I'm at least not as tired, but I still have a mild sinus headache, I'm coughing and sneezing, and I feel sick to my stomach. I know it isn't covid bc this is not at all what that felt like, I just can't imagine what it could be. I don't know but I don't like it, being sick leaves me pretty much incapacitated and that sucks when you're a caregiver and also responsible for most of the house duties. 😪
