What's Bothering You?

[Croconaw]

The door to my apartment looks like it’s going to fall off and I’m kind of afraid my dad is going to blame me for it? Idk. I’m dreading the moment he realizes, although it’s not that hard to miss. The hinges are fine, just the border?

I think I broke my Wii Motion Plus... I was playing Wii Sports Resort Swordplay Showdown, and I got mad and hit my Wii Remote on my dresser. I guess that somehow messed up the Wii Motion Plus, 'cause now it's not responding...

Edit: Never mind, it's working again. :] I nearly got a heart attack from that, though... I gotta be more careful and NOT smack my Wii Remote on furniture. -_-

Mention of domestic abuse about my neighbours.

Spoiler

My new male neighbour is so mean to his wife and he scares me. I heard him scream at her today "look at you, you're disgusting". I started to walk over there and my partner stopped me. He is deeply disturbed.

 

[ZeldaCrossing64]

I love how I get angry about why my Wii Remote isn't responding properly knowing damn well that I chucked it at the wall 10 times yesterday during Swordplay Showdown.

I'm so tired and I've got another Math exam to do this morning. :,) My next (and final) exam isn't till next Monday, but I have unfinished schoolwork so I still can't catch a break. Please, I haven't watched Poofesure in a week and I'm going crazy.

 

[Violet Witch]

I just wish it was the weekend already, I feel like this week has dragged on.

 

[Alienfish]

What a drag this week indeed... Also the fact some delivery guys don't check where they should go so we got like 5 boxes of envelopes not headed to us at all, then we can to cancel the regular delivery cause they never picked up our stuff.. Meh.

have a rescheduled appt with my therapist today and idk I'm just worried about it. last time I went and I told her abt how the funerals I went to have affected me, she just went on and on about how she's a christian and believes in heaven and how "you can convince yourself that something isn't true if you don't want to believe it is." if she tries that again I'm gonna be so mad. I wish she would respect my religious view (or, I should say, lack of religion). a month later and I'm still basically traumatized and scared and I don't know how to deal with it, but her going on and on about religion isn't helping at all. I really hope she doesn't try that again.

Comment section on twitter of an ad that shows skinny and fat legs in exercise gear. Why I went to look in the comments is beyond me.

Spoiler: The internet weight Issue

So many many many people scream for people to lose weight and they also scream that fat people shouldn't ever wear exercise clothing. Ok... so what are they suppose to work out in? I mean what is shown is completely reasonable clothing. But these same people criticize a fat person jogging down the street because they are doing a healthy activity and are fat or because they can simply be seen. They get upset to see a fat person on tv doing yoga or leading a workout session. This is as dumb as saying sick people shouldn't go to the doctor. And before this push of fat people being seen in the media, the stereotype was fat people eat gobs and gobs and sit on the couch and never move. Now that fat people are seen, these people get mad because fat people can and do, do things.
I tell you this society is dangerously going down the path of excluding anyone they don't like out of society to where they pass away. Whether through jobs, accessibility, or mentally. Not because they are harming others and they refuse to stop, but simply for being different or simply disliked. This very issue shows up in other topics such as race, religion, lbgt, disability, ect ect and it is driving me nuts.

My doctor some reason gave me medication called Atorvastatin 10 MG to help lower cholesterol levels since they found out that it was a bit high. I taken this mediation and all of a sudden I'm feeling all these muscle pains all over my body, I'm feeling tired most of the time, and my blood sugar readings have spiked a bit. I did a research and found this Article that says that staking this medication increases the risk of insulin resistance. I am going to call my doctor about this because this is becoming more of recurring issue of doctors not doing their research.

This is a study based on people who DO NOT HAVE diabetes. Judging by your posts over the last few months your doctors seem to think you have (or are flirting with) type 2 diabetes.

abdominal malaise
diarrhea	0-4%
fatigue
headache	3-17%
hepatotoxicity
insomnia	5%
myalgia	0-6%
nausea	7%

Above is my chart regarding the potential side effects for Lipitor...so as you can see at most 6% of people who take this medication can have muscle pains, and while fatigue can be a side effect it doesn't occur in enough people to have concrete numeric evidence.

Constantly blaming the doctors for being 'wrong' or 'not doing their research' isn't going to help your situation...and honestly, from my perspective (a pharmacist) a statin drug for someone with early onset diabetes is a good call.

FYI: ANY statin drug CAN (not will) create insulin resistance, it comes with the territory with that kind of medication. You're either going to have to deal with taking this kind of medication if your cholesterol is a concern, or fix your diet.

Moving forward I'm just letting you know, if I think anyone is posting medical misinformation I will jump on them, because that can be dangerous. When dealing with medication, the terms 'CAN' and 'WILL' regarding the frequency/severity of side effects are about as different as night and day.

My brother is whispering things to me like "you're stupid", "you have no braincells", "you're ugly", "you have no friends", etc. It's so stupid but it's actually bothering me. Ugh, I wanna punch him in the face.

 

[moonbyu]

is it weird to feel guilty because of a grade you got? today, i got a 96/99 on my final assignment. this is seriously high, but i don't feel like i deserve it. its not like i cheated or anything, but my math teacher helped me w/ it. a lot. so.. i don't feel like i truly deserved it. maybe its cuz i've conditioned myself into thinking i dont deserve good marks in math, or anything due to my learning disabilities.. nonetheless, i'm not completely happy about it.

was fast asleep and all cozy and now I'm wide awake cause all the power is out

we've literally never had power issues before (except during heavy storms or the off chance when someone hit a powerline) but now that there have been powerplants closing across Ohio suddenly we are dealing with power issues. this is so stupid.


edit: power came back on, now I can sleep in peace again
so much for going to sleep at a decent time though

I definitely get that! And for your case I don't think you should feel guilty at all. Asking for help from other people isn't bad; it's really how we learn as people. I don't think anyone has ever gotten to where they are right now without asking for help from other more experienced people. At the end of the day, what really matters is what you've learned from all of this. If you think your math skills have improved after the tutoring session, I think that's a whole achievement in itself!

My self esteem has gotten better over the past few years, but sometimes I still wish I was better looking. Like I mentioned the other day I can’t look at myself in the mirror without my glasses on. People have said I looked better without them on. I’ve always agreed. They tend to make my cheeks look puffier and they obscure my eyes too much. As a result I’ve developed this habit for several years. I’ve also internalized all of those comments from high school classmates and people on the street who said I was ugly. It’s happened so much that I just accepted it. People say I’m ugly therefore I am. My relatives have said otherwise, but I always thought they were just biased. If I was better looking I wouldn’t have to spend time thinking about it, nor would I have to deal with the onslaught of comments I get about it.
