Beginning jaundice again, just like I had September last year, still without being much wiser to what is actually doing this to me. Liver enzymes spiking up and down, and worst of all, the intense itching that makes me unable to get any rest at all. Back to medication and phenobarbitals in the slight hope of it calming me down enough at night to sleep. If it isn't the itching, it's the thoughts of what it can be. They tested me for everything in the fucking world at this point, scanned me with everything they got, and I am still nervous it is some kind of cancer or whatever. I can barely go out shopping some food as it is right now, so thankful I got my mother living close by. But also sucks to be dependent on her as much as I have been, especially last year when she took a month off work just to take care of me.

Are you okay now? That shit SUCKS. Don’t be embarrassed though, probably easier said than done but if anyone even noticed you’re most likely the only one who will remember it ever happened.

Been struggling with chronic pain the past few months, and the medicine I’ve been using to manage the pain is becoming ineffective. From what I understand, the only other drug for my situation is an opiate drug that they probably won’t prescribe me/insurance won’t pay for.

Talking to a doctor about it tomorrow, but his preliminary email response to my initial question wasn’t very promising.

My grandma was like that towards the end and it drove my sister and mom apart a bit. My sister couldn't understand why mom was treating it like she was basically already gone but it was like dealing with an entirely different person already, a stranger. Just be sure to be there for both of them, you have to be patient with her and your mother but don't forget to seek support for yourself as well. It hurts to see now but you'll be grateful for the small moments you guys share now, later.

Valkyrie · « **Reply #4036 on:** August 08, 2018, 06:40:40 PM »

Thanks for the kind words.

Sorry to hear about your grandma. :'(

It really helps that I live a 3 minutes walk from their house, so I can help them with cleaning, cooking and grocery shopping when I have time. We're applying for at-home help for them a couple times a week, which should be good because they can't keep their place clean anymore, and my grandma has problems showering by herself etc. I just try to spend as much time with them as I can tbh.

My grandma is really stubborn, she got a walker but she refuses to use it, which doesn't make things better. She always pride herself in her athletic past, and will hide the walker in a room whenever she has guests over.

agrajag · « **Reply #4037 on:** August 08, 2018, 06:43:42 PM »

That sucks, Val. My grandma was misdiagnosed with schizophrenia her whole life (she was actually bi-polar) and my mom had to take care of her since an early age. We've had some crazy situations to deal with, so I know what you're going through.

why are hometown friends so fucking nasty? Envious? hateful fucks?

Everything is a comparison/competition. Who is doing better than whom. Who has a better job. Who is making money. Who isn't making money. Oh he turned into a loser. Oh she turned into an alcoholic. Oh he's unemployed. Oh she hates her husband. On and on and on and on.

I don't get it. I don't meet anyone else so negative than my childhood/highschool "friends"

I can't reach out to anyone back at home anymore. It's sad. Even if i need something i can't fathom dealing with any of them.

Was having a drink with friends in the fenced-off outside area of my fave bar. Sun went down beautifully, but after it got dark some jackass drunk came around threatening to burn down our "cigarillo bar." Bartenders called the cops, there was a pair of plaincloth cops across the street that decided to do jack shit and watch "the fireworks" so to speak.

Drunk eventually fucked off after an hour of this shit.

Great stuff.

Kiss him from us and tell him we love him and appreciate him.

Glossophobia or speech anxiety is the fear of public speaking.[1] The word glossophobia derives from the Greek γλῶσσα glōssa, meaning tongue, and φόβος phobos, fear or dread. Some people have this specific phobia, while others may also have broader social phobia or social anxiety disorder.

Stage fright may be a symptom of glossophobia.[1]

My grandfather passed away in his sleep on Tuesday. It was unexpected, but at the same time not really. His body was just very tired lately, and just gave in. He fell asleep while taking a nap next to his wife of 57 years. It brings me peace to know he passed in the most beautiful way. I’m feeling all sorts of things. I’ve been taking it day by day, crying, laughing, distracting myself. Hugging my family and just taking it easy. I have a very good memory of my last meeting with him on Sunday.
