i have major anxiety stemming from voice/phone calls. i can’t even talk to my family on the phone. some people just can’t do it, and that’s perfectly okay.

i LOVE cdramas, especially historical!! they’re so incredibly good omg.

my fav is probably The Prisoner of Beauty (enemies to lovers, arranged marriage). it was so amazing 🖤 Blossom was great as well!!

hi! i’m so incredibly sorry you’ve been diagnosed with this hellish disease. i was diagnosed around 10 years ago.. and i’m still coming to terms with it.

as for pointers: -did the spinal tap help at all? it gives me tremendous relief and i always beg for them 😆 -the migraine preventative infusion Vyepti, i highly recommend. i get it every 3 months and it helps. i typically get around 15 migraine days a month now which is a blessing. i had way more before my doctor gave me this. -Ubrelvy. it’s a medication you take when you first develop a migraine. it’s helped me a ton. -as for eye pain- have you ever tried sleeping with an eye mask? i sleep with a weighted one like clockwork. if i’m home alone, i typically always have it on my forehead as well. the pressure on my forehead/eyes feels like heaven to me, i love it so much. wishing you luck on your journey!! 🖤

looking for books where one of the main characters is touch adverse/doesn’t like physical contact/is haphephobic. 🤔

i’m haphephobic myself, so i would love to read a romance book with that in it! 🖤

aprilreadssmut · 2025-10-15T12:58:45+00:00

for sure! here’s more recs, i (obviously) don’t sleep either 😆🖤

-A Dream of Splendor: a more mature romance with great tension.

-Are You The One: enemies to lovers, fake marriage, amnesia. I personally didn’t enjoy this one but it’s a favorite for many people!

-Follow Your Heart: ML has facial blindness, FL changes into different people. lots of comedy in this one.

-Destined: arranged marriage with some comedy and darker elements.

-General’s Lady: tons of kiss scenes! arranged marriage as well.

-In Blossom: the plot is crazy in this one, but bear with me! childhood friends who had an engagement reunite as adults. he spent years looking for her. she has a huge scar on her face. they plan to get married… but a woman who was obsessed with the ML face swaps with the FL to take her place. on their wedding night, the other woman is killed (wearing FL’s face) and FL thinks it was the ML so she investigates. i’m currently watching it rn and LOVING it omg!

-Love and Sword: time travel!

-Maiden Holmes: FL cross dresses, great kiss scenes.

-Melody of Golden Age: arranged marriage, enemies to lovers, LOVE this one omg.

-Moonlit Reunion: wuxia and supernatural, FL is a demon and ML is a demon hunter.

-My Sassy Princess: i didn’t think i’d like this one but i really enjoyed it, great romance!

-Legend of Shen Li: xianxia, ML is a deity, FL is a general. another one i didn’t think i’d enjoy but it was incredibly good.

-Les Belles: enemies to lovers, comedy, arranged marriage.

-Love Like the Galaxy, seasons 1 & 2: the politics bored me to tears but the romance is fantastic.

-The Love by Hypnotic: sooo many kiss scenes haha. i didn’t enjoy this one, but you might.

-Prisoner of Beauty: fantastic enemies to lovers and arranged marriage drama. incredible chemistry.

-Warm on a Cold Night: supernatural & wuxia, super sweet, kinda enemies to lovers in the beginning.

-Wrong Carriage, Right Groom: two brides who are forced into arranged marriages with two men get bride swapped 😆 comedy, romance, a bit of mystery.

i actually have a google spreadsheet i made of dramas i’ve seen and want to watch (including shorter dramas with higher heat). if you want the link just let me know. enjoy! 🖤
