I suppose we've been quite busy recently. Biggest news is no doubt that I did my first Twitch stream! Painfully missed my usual summer TR marathons with people so decided to finally start streaming and at least be able to talk to them that way. Might try and get Discord working next time so we … Continue reading The 30 degree night

We moved house again
I feel like I've been gone for ages. A lot of life happened, we finally found a place to live, the virus pandemic got worse, there was a bit of a delay before we could move in, but we eventually managed it. We were initially told we wouldn't have internet until June, because nobody was … Continue reading We moved house again
Viruses are scary and that’s OK
https://open.spotify.com/track/3FY4wCXHbQe5S5jAFNbAXr?si=dJTP7bFATqCgQcnDnywM3w Are you hearing this all the time? Because I am. I got slagged-off on the grapevine the other week for advising people on Facebook to wash their hands and stay calm. Apparently this is "telling people what to do." I mean, regardless of what I type anywhere, you are still free to be … Continue reading Viruses are scary and that’s OK
Christmas catch-up
This month has been very busy and exhausting. We've also all been a bit ill in a different way. I had a fever and some mad confusion, Will got a sore throat, my sister-in-law was sick and it looks like my mother-in-law might have got C. diff from work! So really not a smooth time … Continue reading Christmas catch-up
Headspace
Recently I've felt like there's not enough space in my head. When my injections wear off I end up with constant background migraines which cause a lot of head burning, and an intense swelling feeling, along with nausea and visual disturbances, even if I'm not crying and vomiting like I would be during a main … Continue reading Headspace
Wisdom woes
This is mostly gonna be about my mouth issues. I've got an update about my actual mouth that I'm slightly concerned about. I've pixellated parts of this photo because apparently it didn't occur to me not to eat a cereal bar before checking my teeth via photos. Not only is there visible pus on … Continue reading Wisdom woes
3rd molars are bullshit; change my mind
Frankly I think this weekend wanted to see how far it could push us before we shot ourselves. I had the yearly painful anniversary of something that I gave myself the day to cry about and lose my mind over. I woke up from a nap on Thursday afternoon with ridiculous pain in the right … Continue reading 3rd molars are bullshit; change my mind
My 3rd migraine Botox
I went to the hospital yesterday and had another dose of migraine Botox. I felt it wearing off around a month ago, meaning that I need to get doses every other month, as my previous one was in December. My headaches were getting longer and more severe around February 18th, and things like nausea and … Continue reading My 3rd migraine Botox
You do not want to overdose.
I said at the end of my last post that the reasons I gave for not killing myself were bollocks. Aside from the not having an accessible method that won't end terribly part. That was true, I did something I had access to doing and it did, in fact, end terribly. There is very frank talk … Continue reading You do not want to overdose.
The miracle of nerve toxins
Onabotulinum toxin A has once again come through for me. I finally had my second dose of migraine injections. The waiting period was still a couple of hours, but I was taken into a ward bay straight away and I came prepared this time, I didn't have too bad of a headache so I got … Continue reading The miracle of nerve toxins
