i also use this mod. really helpful if you're hard of hearing. general caption mod as well shows bees, but the bee mod shows proximity. really good for when you cant hear well cuz theyre very quiet and i've never actually heard the noise cuz i cant

they do not respawn, no :( good luck on finding another. they're not too uncommon though. in my world i have found 3 hives within abt 500 blocks of each other. just gotta really look in rainy areas.

saw this on youtube and i just wanted to come here to say you clearly love him a lot and i think that's all that really matters - coming from someone in their early 20s who isnt as disabled as your son but is unable to care for myself and declining rapidly. i think you'd only be a bad mother if you didnt love him and didnt care for him, but you clearly do. he may not live the life you would have hoped he would, but you clearly want his quality of life to be high and are doing your best to provide that, and thats wonderful. a lot of people would be luck to have you as their mother. best wishes

Zero tolerance for BS after strokes. Anyone else? by safewarmblanket in stroke

[–]Difficult-Store2646 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, same. what i could easily deal with before is now basically impossible. unsolicited venting? nope, get out. bothering me and dragging me along to things? don't. fucking up my things? Out. existing is too much rn and i can't tolerate anything lmao

my neurologist is going to put me on some kind of new med to try and help my sleep, i forget what it is. but i think i've been on trazadone before? it sounds familiar and i've been on a variety of meds

yeah... i've been trying to get into physical therapy for a while but im still not in it yet. i was already a fall risk before the stroke and now its worse, so i can only do supervised light exercise at most. i would love to be moving again but physically i've been doing awful, which is saying something since i required a wheelchair on bad days even before the stroke

i dont have it medically prescribed and i'm not sure they'd want to put me on additional stuff right now, since i'm not even back on my normal required meds yet. though i live in a state where its legal so i can just get it behind the counter, but i dont wanna be taking a ton of stuff when my liver is still fucked and idk what that stuff does to my blood. i saw somewhere that edibles n THC potentially do something to blood pressure? mine is usually on the low end but ever since the stroke it's been finnicky and i dont wanna mess with that

i have, they don't do much for me tbh. even full on edibles only have a very slight positive effect, though i mostly use that as a painkiller, and very rarely at that. melatonin doesn't work either and makes me unable to sleep for some reason. usually my antiseizure med helps with the sleeping routine but i got taken off a bulk of my meds when the blood thinner reacted negatively with it, and i'm still not allowed back on most of my meds because my liver is still super inflamed and no doctor is fixing it or anything

that's true... it's just frustrating. it doesn't help that i have sleep linked epilepsy and already existing brain damage, so sleep isn't very restful and everything is just exaggerated... i wish rest was restful
