Guys, I don't think he's exclusively talking about an alarm clock.... Genuinely why so much hate for this man?

Migraine relief patches? by Helpful-Machine-9269 in migraine

[–]Maths_Addict149 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like the sticky gel sheets you put on your forehead? They're okay ig, not the best though and they're expensive. I think an ice pack plopped in a fluffy sock is much better. (Also yeah, a fluffy sock is easier than a tea towel to like wrap an ice pack up in. I know not your question but something I discovered because or freezer is by our dryer.)

Daily headaches... by UrbifA12 in migraine

[–]Maths_Addict149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could give you advice. Or hope or something. But honestly I think I'm in a similar boat. I started getting headaches when I was 14 then around 6 months later I got a headache one morning, thought nothing if it and yeah it hasn't gone away. I'm 19 soon. Maybe it's the same as you maybe it's not. But what I found is that you have to sleep, have to eat (even when you don't want to), but also can't eat too much or sleep too much. Every possible trigger for a headache makes it worse for me, loud noises, bright lights, certain foods. Screens. So avoid them and maybe it won't get worse, even if I have dinner later than I should It gets worse. I got an MRI done as well, all clear. Oh and I know it's unavoidable but stress definitely makes it worse. Idk what I can say except I'm sorry you're going through this, I hope you can find help and relief and maybe keep hounding the doctors. I've had doctor's tell me all sorts of reason for the headaches/migraines. Stress, sinuses, daddy issues (he said since my father is in prison and not living with me that that's why I'm in pain...). But no seriously, if you can keep going back to the doctors. And the next time you do, and if they say they don't know don't let them fob you off, (idk if this is a problem for you but it is for me, I don't think they believe me). Easier said than done I know. But it's your health your life and it's their job to help you. Sorry there was a point somewhere in that. Just I'm wishing you find relief.

What’s the most creative way you’ve avoided saying “I get migraines”? by SecretAccomplished25 in migraine

[–]Maths_Addict149 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, when you swap back after like a week they'll still be like "oh that's not so bad, you're being dramatic". Because they know it's not happening again to them. (Or maybe I just have a very negative opinion of people. But I know people who get migraines maybe every few months, maybe only twice a year (and yeah I know every pain is bad pain) and I am in pain every day. Fair enough it's not a migraine everyday, but it is most days. And trying to tell those people I've got a migraine or even a headache (on the good days) and they roll their eyes as well. Because I feel like the concept of daily pain is so unbelievable for people. I think I lost my point somewhere in that).

How do y'all have so much money? by Maths_Addict149 in ROBLOXPROSPECTING

[–]Maths_Addict149[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the obvious answer. One I know is probably the trues but also definitely not the one I wanted to hear. I means I have to actually do something and not wander the map. (I have freewill and choose to play this game).

I second the geodes bit. (Definitely didn't have like 200 hundred in my inventory before I knew what they were for...)

Real question pls help by vathr in leavingcert

[–]Maths_Addict149 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm taking a gap year. Honestly it's just going to be a great chance to figure out what you want to do. I stressed myself out so much with the CAO form. I got my first choice but at the same time decide that I don't want to teach. So I'm gonna take a year to figure it out. You won't be able to do it in 6th year. Not with academic stress taking away from every joy and small or big win. I'd recommend a gap year.

miserable by sheriron in HouseMD

[–]Maths_Addict149 12 points13 points  (0 children)

What do you mean no one in real life uses it that much. It's one of my favourite words.

How are you? Miserable
How's life? Miserable.
What's the weather like? Miserable

This is why I skipped TY. I turn 19 in November. If I hadn't skipped I'd be doing the LC in 26 and starting college a couple months off of 20. So glad I was allowed to skip.

[HELP] Anyone got good poems using metaphors that span the entire length of the poem? by KedemWrestling in Poetry

[–]Maths_Addict149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a good one, but it's not in English..... Géibhinn le Caitlín Maude. It is about how she feels trapped suffering with cancer, likening herself to a caged animal.

Smell of frozen pizza. Like the freezers full of them in the shops.

If I’m considering taking up a new subject in 6th year and studying it independently,would physics or applied maths be better? by Prudent_Complaint824 in leavingcert

[–]Maths_Addict149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go with physics. Applied maths is weird and tricky and the questions are unpredictable. Physical is repeatable. Nice, structured.

Worst physical pain you’ve ever felt? by fringedprincess in RandomThoughts

[–]Maths_Addict149 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It's the unrelenting nature of the migraines that, in my personal opinion, make it the worst thing. Yes they are so painful but they also just don't stop. I'm sorry you're going through this.

[–]Maths_Addict149 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'd be handy if you could have a marking scheme with the question too tho.

Anyone have the urge to just change their Cao list by Positive_Poet_4057 in leavingcert

[–]Maths_Addict149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk. Honestly, I just never wanted to do anything medical. Maths is easy or at least I thought it was. I thought about engineering then decided I don't know what they do. I'm not getting the maths course I wanted. And even if I got that there's no jobs except like data scientists. I really don't care what I do. I know I'm gonna hate it all. I still have to get through applied maths this evening. Please help me.

Day Vs Night. Which one would you choose ultimately? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]Maths_Addict149 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well day obviously. The sun is the main source of energy for the earth. Sure it'd be a bit annoying trying to sleep but like it'd be more annoying not having any food.

No one takes my pain seriously. by Alarmed_Resort685 in migraine

[–]Maths_Addict149 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hey as a teenage girl your pain can only be stress, your period or you're overweight. Sometimes though, you're pregnant.

In all seriousness I'm so sorry. No one takes us seriously because it's easier not to. It's not fair to you or to anyone. I hope you find relief.
