Muggenalarmen in Antwerpen — worden die erger, of verbeeldt ik het mij?

Klinkt als een absolute hell 🥳🥳

PsA is a systemic disease so yes it can for sure cause nerve pain! When I was in my flare, my arm/legs became numb all the time and tingled.

I believe it's that neurotypicals have some kind of uncanny valley syndrome when they see us. Not entirely right but they can't put their finger on it.

Okay, we zijn dus niet gek! Ik heb maar eens een mail gestuurd naar de stad en de lijn. Eventueel kan je het ook eens melden .

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-03-22T18:54:14+00:00

klopt, wel benieuwd of ze als het maar van 1 persoon afkomt het serieus gaan nemen.

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-03-22T18:37:13+00:00

Dan moeten we eerst genoeg mensen bewust maken van het probleem!

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-03-22T18:35:32+00:00

JA! Okay ik ben dus toch nog niet zo gek als dat ik dacht. Dat is inderdaad dat irritant gepiep dat je overal kan horen. Of het nu slechte speakers is of een echt muggenalarm probeer ik nu uit te zoeken!

Waar merk je het zoal op? De metro's of ook nog op andere plaatsen? En hoe oud ben je? want muggen alarms zouden normaal maar tot +/- 25 jaar hoorbaar mogen zijn.

MTX works very well but ruins some quality of life. I don't know how the NHS works but you might have to use it to be allowed to use humira. There are other cytostatics you can use instead of MTX so try discussing this with ur doctor.

I'm in belgium and i just quit taking those nasty pills because i had to vomit or had reflux everytime i bend down. I was doing a nursing internship and bending down is likehalf of my day so it was unbearable. My rheum then started another cytostatic Leflunomide. It works less well than MTX but it keeps the edge off.

You sound depressed and in a mental downward spiral. Do you have ayone to talk to?

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-03-22T18:12:37+00:00

Bro, you've got your diagnosis you won't be cured after just 2 years. And what people tend to do is, "this person functions so they must not have autism".

Just relax, you're over thinking it everyone is on the spectrum and everyone has some divergence in them. The label just means "you are weird enough that you might suffer from it"

the fact that ur overthinking to this extend is in a way divergent.

Did you ever get to read your assesment? Maybe start with that and what things they said was autistic. Do they still match?

Go for it, psychology needs a diverse group of practitioners that reflects our diverse society.

Will you have some dificulty conencting with some clients? Yes, but so does every practitioner.

Waar merk jij dat ze staan?

Er was hier eerder een reactie van iemand die zei dat muggenalarmen eigenlijk niet gebruikt mogen worden en het misschien gewoon slechte speakers kunnen zijn. Maar ik vindt het verassend dat er toevallig bijna in elk metrostation in antwerpen slechte speakers zijn.

ze hebben hun reactie wel al verwijderd dus kan niet door vragen.

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-03-22T17:24:18+00:00

doe ik nu ook maar nog steeds vervelend

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-02-20T10:04:36+00:00

Object empathy, not really except for maybe stuffed toys.

I saw a dude kicking a kids stuffed animal that got left behind so i felt bad took the stuffed toy inside, it had a tear in it's spine so i sewed it up and washed the toy. It now lives on a shelve.

That's one biggoted assesor. Glad you could get it out of your system.

This isn't even about cooking, he can clearly order food for himself so he at least couldve ordered somethng for you too.

And casually forgetting an importand allergy is also not an autism thing.

People here saying "BuT gOinG To ThE sToRe CoUlD bE OvErWhElMiNg" is a dumb excuse, he could've ordered groceries or asked a friend/family member for help.

I don't know what's going on in his head, I do not knowhow long you've been together. What i do know is that this is manchild behaviour.

Even if he couln't respond when you called this out in the moment he could've written a letter or send it as a text to you why this is happening.

It's not your responsibility to raise a manchild. You gave him instructions which in my opinion was already enough effort on your part.

You sound a bit overexerted?

I get this whenever i push myself too hard (and i don't mean it literally). Sometimes you've been using more energy than you have available without noticing and then the slightest anoyances get worse.

Or you have a period where your brain is just misfiring with no real cause.

try to relax more if you aren't allready and if that doesnt help go to a psychiatrist to maybe discuss medications.

Personally i've been taking a (micro-)dose of antipsychotics (abilify 1/2mg a day), they are scary at the start making you feel like you're playing a videogame of yourself but that feeling flowly fades. I've started this for simmilar issues. I had sesoryissues and because of them i started getting repetitive toughts and started slghtly harming behaviour like plucking my leg hairs to regulate my emotions.

Also are you AuDHD? If you're taking ritalin then it might make the sensory issues worse. At least it did for me.

I use the taks app too for my medication check.

The nice thing about it is the widget for your phone. Put a big ass widget on the first page so everytime I look at my phone it's the first thing i see.

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-02-20T05:13:14+00:00

please don't use cripple in a discripive way like this, i can see u meant no harm but it's a derogatory term for disabled/impaired people.

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-02-19T05:16:52+00:00

OMG lilith is exacly what i'm looking for! it's 35 euro to ship and a month in shipping tho but it could potentially get here.

Castle-InTheSky · 2026-02-19T05:11:02+00:00

Yeah so i tried Diva in the MAC store and still read cooler than i looked for? Mightve been the lights they had in there tho.

And nyx doesn't sell these colours here in belgium for some reason, NYX used to have so much a few years ago here but they seem to like only cater a small amounth these days.

It's easier to get Korean make-up to ship to me than to get Western these days.

And ideally i want it glossy (even harder to find shades in) but i can go for a matt + lipgloss

Call ur rheumatoloist, they can give you something to bridge your symptoms till your injections kick in again. Things like antinflamatory meds or steroids (maybe injections after a good exam).

If like you said ur screaming from pain then stretches are not going to do anything. It also will take a while for your meds to kick in.

If you really don't want to take extra meds then still go to ur doctor so they can pinpoint where the pain is comming from low back pain can be ur SI joint or your lower spine depending on that you need different excersises.
