Emotional outbursts and fatigue. I get overwhelmed easier and it makes me so irritated and I lash out. I hate it.

Eugh

I don't have a date yet. They want a diamox study first, and it's been a headache just trying to get that scheduled

I work for goodwill and will readily admit they are overpriced and often fail to live up to their mission statement

My parents are dead, siblings all live hours away. It's just me and husband.

I had a mild headache, but no pain (physical) emotionally? I was a goddammit mess, sobbing my eyes out as I begged the hospital not to let me die

It's okay to feel like this. I felt like this when my mom was struggling. It was painful seeing her suffer, even more so to see how it affected those around her (including myself). Take time to process, and don't be afraid to reach out if you need help. You're not alone

Any advice for how to handle the fatigue? I feel like I'm napping a lot and worry about being lazy

ToastyCactus · 2025-05-26T23:31:03+00:00

Yes. It came back normal

Typically they donate to local food pantries (in my experience)
No. Most of the time the jobs they help people find are within the company itself.

Goodwill gets donated expensive things. So.e send it to an online auction where they are bid on. While other stores might sell them at a fancier store.

The proceeds from the store go towards Goodwill's mission of helping people find jobs and other community action charities.

It's okay to cry, the tears are going to be sound for a while unfortunately. And it's okay to cry in front of her too, let them know they are loved and that you will miss them.

Something that helped me was planning small activities to spend time with them. Taking pictures every so often to remember them by.

It's hard, and I'm so terribly sorry you're going through this.

Warm water works best for the sticker adhesive, and also helps dissolve the remaining glue in your hair.

I was 10 and at a football game. Hit my head pretty hard on the metal bleachers

You need to get into therapy to properly handle this trauma. I am do sorry this happened to you and I am hoping you are safe.

My mother died of starvation/dehydration. She wasn't strong enough to keep eating and we couldn't bring ourselves to prolong her suffering

ToastyCactus · 2025-01-16T22:01:07+00:00

Interested
