Home From Hospital
2 years ago
I've been at the hospital sense yesterday morning. Glad to be home, and just... very tired.
I was having severe abdominal pain and had to go to ER. Basically didn't get any useful treatment until there was a shift change for doctors and I got seen by a different physician. I'm just... so freaking tired. The pain gets freaking unreal. So much of my time was spent just... crying and laying on a stretcher because they're not allowed to help you until a doctor sees you. I'm also autistic and agoraphobic so just BEING outside my house is a huge stresser...
Long story short I had a bad time and now I'm tired. Bugging the fuck outta me because my current queue project is sitting at like %80 completion.
Gunna get back on track as quick as I can! Just wanted to give everyone a heads up <3

FA+

Also I totally feel you on the autism+agoraphobia...
Take your time resting if you need it! Your health is important!!
UHG RIGHT like these people need to realize how great it is of me not to murder everyone and go home and go to bed -_-;; everything would be easier that way
Thank you <3 I am making little micro bits of progress but man it's slow going ^^;; I need to go lay down now uhg sitting up for this long was hard ^^;;
RIGHT?! Like bro, leave me alone, I'm already a step away from exploding and going home -.-
Of course! Please take care of yourself. While people may be waiting on you, you cannot pour from an empty cup. Take care of YOU FIRST.
OMG PREACH >_<;; People tend to stare at me a lot because the tattoos, shaved head, piercings, etc. and it's like... IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HELP ME KINDLY DEPART FROM ME THE FUCK NOW ;_;
LOL I had a huge nap, FINALLY FINISHED A THING, and now... I think I will return to nap LOL
Ngl I would probably also stare, but I stare cause I like interesting looking people. I'm a massive needlephobe so tattoos and piercings are very hard for me. I only have my earlobes pierced and I WANT tats, but can't get any... but tbf I would also offer help lmao
NAP GOOD ESPECIALLY WITH MS RONA! also drink lots of water, friend!
TBH I can kinda tell when people is staring because they are interested, vs. judging. We have a lot of heavy drug users around here so people tend to assume I am one, even though all I do is weed, legally ^^;;
Awww, you know, I am TERRIFIED of medical needles! Tattoo needles are very different, they barely break the surface of your skin, vs. medical needles that like stab you in the soul >_> You might be able to do it! Especially if you picked a very small, very fast tattoo on a less painful spot. My first one was a tiny one behind my ear, and then a semi colon on my wrist. It really helped a lot to get used to the feeling =3 But there's also nothing wrong with being too frightened to do it at all! Took me a lot of encouragement to build up to it but now I have like... 30 tattoos LOL
OMG she's a fucking BITCH XD -_- ;_;
I know that the tattoo needles are much different. I'm just... still really scared. It took me years just to be able to use sewing needles! >.<; my first tattoo is gonna be a ditto face on my left thigh. After that I think I'm gonna get a semi colon but I may get it elsewhere. Wrist tats I've heard are extremely painful since it's on bone. I'm just saving money up right now for the ditto. If i can make it through that, I think I'll open up more to more tattoos. Plus I do want a lot of piercings...
It's totally fair to still feel very scared! Sewing needles are also quite unnerving to me as well :( Ditto face sounds like a reasonable goal for a first tattoo! Thigh is also a good spot, one of the lesser painful places. I found the wrist burns/stings more than actual pain, but I didn't mind it very much. The BACK on my spine was like .... extra ouchy hell ^^;;
ahhhh piercings are fun too! I've got my ears twice, my eyebrow, tongue, and center lip ^^ also wanna do my bellybutton~ what about you?
My mom's got a butterfly on her lower back (her favorite creature) and said it was awfully painful but worth it.
I wanna get my tongue, septum, eyebrow, and maaaaaaybe my lip somewhere but I'm unsure. My current goal is just managing to keep earrings in lol
OMG small of the back was PAIN WITHOUT LOVE. I never want anyone to touch there or my spine again LOL
For piercings though, I found the eyebrow was more painful then I expected (no one realizes how much they use thier eyebrow LOL) and the tongue was like... nothing. I went to ask 'are you done already?' and there was a needle through my tongue xD so. That one was not so hard. The lip stung pretty bad but I did it right after my tongue xD I also did have my nose! That one made my eyes water... and I had to take it out because I get too many blisters in my nose >_<;;
I think it's perfectly reasonable to be frightened though, I hope no one makes you feel otherwise <3 It's okay if you never do any of it! I just also believe in you, that there's a good chance you can, because I was also very scared, and eventually did what I wanted with body mods anyway! The docs and nurses always laugh when I say I'm scared of needles... but I am! Very scared!
