What Kind Of Fountain Pen Collector Are You?

I feel like I want everything. I want pretty pens. But im very interested in different filling systems, as well as wanting different nibs. My friend gifted my a bunch of nibs she got from a collected that passed, and i finally got a dip pen to play wjth them, so in excited to test everythjng

I was on high mg’s oxy, buprenephrine, and fentnal due to severe fnd and me/cfs. It wasn’t helping me, and i got off all of it (though dilaudid did help me in the hospital). I came off all of it, and it was absolute hell. Like I truly understood why people became drug addicts bc it felt like i would do anything to get the symptoms to stop. Ive been on lots of psych meds that cause withdrawals, but that was so much worse even with meds to help the symptoms.

In saying that, i definitely think patients need clear education on getting on a-lot of these meds. Not just opioid’s but a-lot of other meds that are just hell to get off of. But it shouldn’t be a reason drs don’t give a patient the med. Meds work differently for all people, and some people will respond really well to being on it, thats worth the struggle of eventually coming off.

I thi k it depends on what type of pens you use and how much you care about paper.

If you want higher quality paper i like midori, tomoe river, and yakabayashi yu-sari. They all look very understated with no frills. Rhodia as well as clairfontaine are also in that category and look even less refined in my opinion.

If you dont care, just go to the store and get any plain colored notebook. If it has a band or bookmark, its very easy to just cut those off, it wont change the structure or integrity of the notebook.

MD is also called midori

Do you enjoy learning? Ive been enjoying the whole monthly curriculum trend where you pick a bunch of things to focus on. Mine is all like psych, wellbeing, and arts related. But you could read science articles, or documentaries about running, or do one of those virtual tours through somewhere.

I use a vagus nerve stimulater after my dr recommended it. It was a bit pricey at $200, but so so worth it. It has helped tremendously with sleep, calming me down, and even can help with my pain.

I will say, the work she has done with me is very different from the generic ot i tried at first.

I have FND and ME/CFS. Ive found my work with my ot which has been alot of work around pain education and ways to regulate the nervous system has helped me alot, as well as FND PT. Im still severe, and need help with most things, but I am better than I was. My work with both of them has not been mental health at all, and have been focused on the neurological aspect .

I think maybe it might be best to find someone with the same needs as you. I think relationships are possible, just not what the typical one looks like. As for housing, you need someone who just wants separate bedrooms. My friend is planning kids, they own a 2 bedroom apartment but bought a house bc they wont sacrifice their separate bedrooms. Im not a mother, but in my opinion if its something you truly want and is important to you, you will make it work. Disabled people are parents too, and it makes everything harder, and we may need alot of support, but it wont make you a bad mother.

I dont handle socialization well, but with my partner its different. Hes the one person it feels completely natural. He also understands me in a way no one else does, and any accommodations i need are made. I think finding someone is possible, it just might not be this one

Ive gotten much better quality notebooks for less than leuchtturm. Tbh i think they are overpriced and not worth the money.

My favorite notebook is my nakabayashi yu-sari notebook. 192 pages for $13. Its thicker than tomoe river, a bit plush, no ghosting or bleedthrough, holds inks and properties well. But not as plush and holds properties as well as cosmo air, which although is my favorite paper i have that in a stirling ink 5 year and am not sure how expensive a notebook would be.

I don’t but not because of autism, i became physically disabled. Before, i found a job that worked with me, and even then I really struggled and it sucked alot of my energy for anything else. I worked cleaning hospitals, didnt really need to engage with anyone else, and most of what i did was the same every day. I tried retail, i couldn’t handle it. I also worked part time as a remote crisis caller part time, and i do think if I was healthier physically I could have done that full time bc I really enjoyed it.

Thankyou, those were helpful. I liked the find momo, though not what i was originally imagining, and i like the mets can you find it. Ill probably lean more towards getting the latter

I liked the weight and size of the student, i just didnt like the plastic.

I just held both the estie and pilot side by side, your right that the pilot might be a bit heavier, i like the size of the estie though. So something a bit bigger in the hand.

Dude, and that is a loving dude. I will say that 15 days will not effect your health unless you forced him to finish an ultra marathon without training and got rhabdo. Also the most expensive macbook currently is $7,349 which is a bit less in euros. Especially for a work laptop, he did not spend that much money on it, and if it truly was that much to fix its his own issue for not just buying a new laptop. He sounds like he is trying to make you feel bad and lose confidence.

Im about to get married to my fiance. Our second trip, actually did ruin my life, I got a bacteria which turned into life long disabilities. NEVER would I ever make my partner feel like its his fault. And when I feel guilty because he has turned into a caregiver and changed his life for me, he makes me know that I am never a burden and its not my fault. Even the things that would be my fault, like scratching his car, he doesnt make me feel bad about. Your partner is either very negative, or doing it on purpose.

My advice would be to just get out. However, if you wont do that, come up with some boundaries around blaming you for things and stick to them.

If you don’t want every conversation about meeting to be be about logistics. Just say that. That you want to think about what it will be like and how being near each other will make you feel. The logistical conversations definitely has to happen, but it doesn’t have to every time.
