They lack both the warmth and the depth.

We should all hop in and drink the coolaid together. Mass banicide sounds like a great weekend activity.

Gosh I'm fucking sick of this heat. Fan does piss all. Freezing jars of fucking coconut oil just to stay cool. Absorbing icecubes. Contemplating flooding downstairs and making it a swimming pool...

Went and bought a washing up bowl to fill with ice cubes and water and ice been sitting with my feet in it like a proper old woman. Feels glorious. You've gotta do what you gotta do

Feeling my health conditions today.

I was on a drug for them that kept them at bay for a solid 10 years but it suddenly stopped working a few years ago. They moved me onto another which stopped working last summer and I've been in pain ever since.

You don't need a lot of pain to drive you fucking insane, it just needs to be relatively constant and spike at the worst fucking times. I was lucky that it didn't take me out for the weekend of the listening event, but God, June has been a nonstop shit show. Can't get anything done. Bonus: at least two of the big OTC painkillers (Ibuprofen and anything with Codeine in it like Cocodamol) are actively dangerous to take with this because they make it worse.

Hospital next week, maybe they can do something, and I'm lucky I live in a place where none of this costs me to manage. But still. Fuck chronic health conditions, fuck em straight to hell.

Hey Negamuse, I'm so sorry you are dealing with this. I completely feel your pain. I was struck down with a chronic health condition in 2013 and have only recently gotten to the bottom of it. Sadly, the NHS have very outdated and blunt knowledge/tools and testing for such things is almost non existent, and so I took matters into my own hands, with pretty much daily research for around 13 years.

I am happy to say I am almost fully healed and have learned an incredible amount of information along the way. If you ever want to chat about it, to see if I can help you, please feel free to reach out. I understand talking publicly about it can be awkward but you are welcome to DM me if you want to chat.

I've helped a few friends through my knowledge and have improved their quality of life hugely. Don't worry it's not any 'alternative' crap, it's all rooted in the latest science and the cutting edge of testing. I completely understand if you'd rather not take advice from some random guy on the internet but I am now one of these insufferable dicks that fixed my issues and just want to help others. Chronic health issues are complex but there are some amazing basic things that can apply to many of them.

Thank you for offering, but it's not mystery pain it's a known condition and sadly it's just one of those things that doesn't have a cure. I have a hospital appointment tomorrow and I'm hoping I can convince them to throw steroids at it and that'll buy me a few months off.
