🪫

I feel so alive and I hate it so much at the same time. Also I'm unintentionally masochistic about this every time. Somehow I don't realize the reason I'm being a bitch is because I'm in pain. It comes on so slowly I assume I just need food or some water.
I'm like a frog being placed in cool water that is slowly heated to boiling. I just let it happen until I'm gritting my teeth and wincing when I swing my head around too fast. Then like the genius I am, I go, wow, I think I have a headache.
Now I'm laying on the floor as the acetaminophen slowly works it's way in. This will inevitably happen again. I probably am actually dehydrated.

moonbeams I literally never remember to drink water and I’ve been dealing with migraines and denying myself relief for them until the suffering is unbearable since I was like 12!!! Drinking water is always good lol…

@moonbeams

taterhole ugh so real, and the thing is that people like this piss me off, just take the meds, why are you suffering, but alas I am a hypocrite of the worst kind, water is just the hardest thing to remember to do

@taterhole

moonbeams Literally same and yet here I am!!!! I have to trick myself into drinking water by drinking several sparkling waters throughout the day

@taterhole

moonbeams on top of regular water… just to maximize my water intake…

@moonbeams

taterhole if I didn't hate sparkling water I'd take up this approach, I try with herbal teas but I think this is just a skill issue I need to learn to take head on, at least when I was bored in class I'd hydrate, now it's hopeless

@taterhole

moonbeams keeping a glass and a pitcher of water in my immediate vicinity helps too… sometimes

@moonbeams

taterhole yeah sometimes, my water bottle is half accessory at this point, but on occasion I remember it's primary function

Not having a headache

I have a headache rn and it sucks. But whenever I don’t have a headache I forget how much having a headache sucks and I’m not grateful for this moment without a headache. So this should hopefully serve as a reminder for that

HYPOCHONDRIA

I’ve had migraines as long as I can remember but every single time I’m convinced that this is the time when it’s not actually my a migraine and my brain is bleeding out of my ears but I won’t recognize it because i’ll think it’s a migraine

suffering

nauseated. sweaty. in a confused haze. limbs feeling like jelly. pulses of cold. room spinning. just totally feeling like shit is when i feel closest to god. i love suffering. just absolute pure bottom of the barrel of human emotion. to be chewed up and spit out by this realm. dragged by the hair through the primordial soup. incarnating just to touch the wound. so fucking funny to me. all i can do is laugh

THE AIRPORT

It's so lawless. You’ll see the weirdest things and no one will care. People are so unabashedly human here. Dead expressions, exhaustion, boredom. You’ll get a coffee, someone else will get a bloody mary, the time is irrelevant. Your priorities will be tested, everything costs at least three times as much as it should, it won’t matter. I love liminal spaces.
