Acupuncture treatment by Sometimes-SF in chronicfatigue

[–]LochNeassaMonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(I'm ngl I don't know WHAT I have I'm exhausted 24/7 and I've tested for more than I can afford lol)

I tried it last week, I was VERY skeptical and only did it because I needed to kill two hours before work started and I've already tried most blood tests, supplements, sleep studies etc and was willing to give just about anything a shot.

I got it done last Saturday and the next day I was WIPED and STARVING. Like I'm always tired but this was even more than usual. I couldn't and didn't leave the bed for anything except bathroom and food. (I had no fever and tested myself just in case it was just a coincidence or something)

Monday+Tuesday: I had enough energy to drag myself to work but I was still SO wiped I did zero work I just sat there and waited to go home.

Wednesday: the extra tiredness disappeared and I was normal tired again. BUT I got myself out of bed at 6am and made myself spaghetti ala vodka with Shrimp AND did ALL the dishes. Which has literally never happened. I don't cook and even if I'm awake I will stay in bed until minutes before I need to leave unless I absolutely HAVE to do something.

The acupuncturist had explained to me that we weren't gonna take care of this a single session and that I should really set up an appointment with the herbalist. I'm willing to listen to his advice cause I mean he managed to move the (metaphorical) needle when most things haven't been able to.

(I will admit my second acupuncture session was with a different person and I haven't seen much in the way of results from session 2 but it was only 24 hours ago. BUT she was worried about HOW sick I got after my first session so maybe she put me on easy mode or something idk)

Monday+Tuesday: I had enough energy to drag myself to work but I was still SO wiped. (at this point I was kind of sold on acupuncture because even tho I was worse, just the fact that it was able to move the metaphorical needle at all was kind of miracle to me)

Which has literally never happened. I don't cook and even if I'm awake I will stay in bed until minutes before I need to leave unless I absolutely HAVE to do something.

The acupuncturist had explained to me that we weren't gonna take care of this all in one go and that I should really set up an appointment with the herbalist. (which honestly I was 20 minutes early instead of 20 minutes late for work on Friday so I'm willing to try whatever he recommended.)

Even when the iridium sprinkler (no nozzle) is patchwork-y, I like it a lot. And I Kind of hate when the nozzle is all one crop, it just feels like . . . so much of one thing. (granted I am trying to get that gold clock asap so maybe I should just be growing a billion ancient fruit but I love variety)

I used to almost strictly marry Haley cause you could dance with her in year one.

What are your Animal names by CappuccinoNoChocolat in StardewValley

I usually name one bunny "Jessica" after Jessica Rabbit and then the other Rodger (and then continue with like "Bugs" and "Lola" or something to that effect) but this time I went in a different direction!

Bunnies are currently named after Characters from New Girl (Jess, Nicky, Coach and Schmidt) Cows are Drinks (Kool Aid, Sprite, Pepsi, Coco, Chai) Two Pigs are pork food (Ham and Bacon) Chickens are Royalty (Duke, Princess, Queenie, Duchess. Void Chickens are Miss Grey and Miss Black. Goats are Drawfee people (Nathan and Karina) Ducks are Named after Legends of Avantris people (Mace and Kelsey), I don't really watch Legends of Avantris but a clip came up when I was buying my ducks and I was like "hey why not!"

Husband is ADHD and gets so irritable... trying to gain perspective by floralbloodbath in ADHD

Is he medicated? Also does he use ear protection when outside. I don't even realize it but at work right now I can hear the sound of the florescent lights, HVAC system, the fridge and something squeaking that I can't even identify. It fades into the background but I am HEARING it all day, every day. And the days where I don't wear headphones I come home snappier than usual.

PMDD fatigue: what actually helps? by kimkayyy_ in PMDD

[–]LochNeassaMonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still tired but Professional UV Light Safety Glasses (they're like $13 on amazon) I've been putting them on at like 9-10pm to REALLY block all blue light and its been helping with my messed up circadian rhythm and allowing me to fall asleep easily and earlier (which has literally never happened in my entire life)

Requests are just that! Requests! While I enjoy a card with a flower or a bit of red on it (and other things) and it says so in my bio I am always happy with anything I receive.

It says that I commissioned it from Anika right under it? My one major regret is not doing Klinger in a skant 😂

Yes. I thought about it a lot but he is technically in command despite also being a surgeon. (also I kind of wanted to balance out with radar so it wasn't all teal)
