It’s the not knowing when it’ll stop. The unpredictability. Wondering “will this ever get any better?” It’s the people close to you just accepting that this is how you are now. It’s the 24/7 nature of it all. It’s the not having a choice. It’s the not having a break from it. It’s the people around you thinking you chose this. As if you enjoy it. As if you actually chose this life. Nobody would ever choose this. It’s the having to play symptoms down. It’s having to pretend it isn’t as bad as what it is. It’s having people judge you, even the people closest to you. It’s having to live with symptoms that most people wouldn’t know how to even begin to cope with. It’s a lack of self confidence and self purpose. It’s staying hopeful when it doesn’t seem like there’s anything to be hopeful for. It’s a lot of things.

You might not feel it, but you’re one of the strongest people EVER. You put up an invisible fight daily. You do all that you can. You often survive second to second, minute to minute, hour to hour. You get through the day. You do your best no matter what obstacles are in your way. And it’s important to remember that even on the really bad days that you’re amazing. You’re strong. You’re tough. You’re fabulous. Lots of love xxxxxx

what illnesses exist on Cybertron?

There are certainly diseases associated with poor nutrition. There are viruses that can be accidentally downloaded if a Cybertrobian connects to an infected device/database. Not a fun thing. Diseases associated with infection of the body with parasitic forms.

The most common manifestations of various diseases can be weakened armor or joints, problems with power distribution, short circuits in the processor and other parts, disorders of vision, T-cog and other mechanisms/internal organs. Poor diet consists of overeating inappropriate or unbalanced food can also result in the equivalent of human deposits in veins and arteries.

Depending on the disease or organs/parts affected, the symptoms will of course vary, although they can build up.

And cosmic rust exist of course

OC culture is melting your brain reading medical papers on and searching out personal accounts of conditions you're considering giving your OCs. Finding good resources is so hard sometimes but even if noone else sees their stories I want to do them right.

World Building

Sicknesses mentioned (so far) in my stories

Colds/flu: congestion of air intakes that is uncomfortable but not overly serious, as they tend to resolve themselves with rest and medgrade. Coughing/sneezing is enough to keep the intakes clear enough to cycle air. These illnesses are caused by the same germs – "flu" is harder to clear than a cold and therefore results in overheating and the more serious symptoms that that often brings.

Cold symptoms:

Congestion of facial air intakes

Minor congestion in chest intakes

Coughing/sneezing

Sore vocaliser

Sensitive/runny optics

Helmache

Flu symptoms:

As above but with additions:

Fever (see below)

Thick, stubborn congestion

Harsh cough with violent fits

Pneumonia: caused by the same germs as colds/flu, but much more dangerous. Chest intakes become severely and dangerously congested. Coughing/sneezing does nothing – often, the sufferer is not even able to cough or sneeze to begin with.

Pneumonia symptoms:

Fever

Constant urge to cough that comes to nothing

Wheezing

Difficulty talking

Difficulty cycling air through facial (sometimes referred to as "upper") intakes

Chest intake fans unable to move or else make scream-like noises when trying to function.

Fever: impossible to regulate temperature due to various possible problems or ailments.

Fever symptoms:

Dangerously high internal temperature, causing tanks to purge anything that could catch fire or explode (excessive vomiting)

Fatigue/exhaustion

Chills

Pains in joints and pistons

Dizziness

Disruption of septic tank functions, resulting in possible "spillages" (incontinence)

Minor self-repairs become difficult to maintain

Physical sickness: illness that causes purging of fuel. May or may not be accompanied by fever. Usually caused by fuel sensitivity or consumption of contaminated fuel.

Sickness symptoms:

Nausea

Purging

Helmache

Tank pains

Dizziness

Septic system impairment

Inability to swallow (in severe cases)

Inability to keep even high quality coolants and oils down (in severe cases)

Fever

Migraine: severe helmache which can last days and leaves the sufferer severely impaired and unable to carry out even basic tasks.

Migraine symptoms:

Intense helm pain

Fuel sensitivity

Purging

Light sensitivity

Optic pain

Visual impairment

Audial receptor impairment

Audial receptor pain

Inability to concentrate

On Cybertron, these ailments have their own names. However, it is easier for humans to understand the concept of an illness when a Cybertronian uses human terms for them.

Sneezing (in some cases – caused by pain in helm, which may be misinterpreted as pressure/inability to cycle air in facial intakes)

Psychological shock: severe reaction to stress/fear. Can last hours or take weeks/months to resolve, depending upon situation.

Shock symptoms:

Confusion

Startling easily

Difficulty communicating

Self-loathing

Self-doubt

Lack of independence

Feeling chilled

Shivering – often coming in violent bouts

Chest intakes working harder than usual, despite the sufferer already feeling cold

Nausea and purging

Septic system impairment

Robin has the kink. Nancy has the snottiest cold in existance… leads to a long night of Nancy resting her head in robin’s lap whilst Robs is in charge of tending to her nose

(any chance of a short fic with that?)

Fuck yeah dude! I apologize for the lack of fem!snz in my fics. Despite being a bi woman myself, I have to be in a real specific headspace to write for women?? Which is? So weird of me, but that’s how it goes I guess??? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Pls enjoy this little fic of some R/onance. -KB

*****

Robin is splayed out on the couch watching Big Mouth on tv. Steve and Eddie had made her watch a few episodes at their place one night, and now she was hooked on the adult cartoon.

She pops a sour patch kid in her mouth when a very wet sneeze makes her jump. Nancy pads into the living room, rubbing at her nose with a tissue, box cradled in her other arm. She’s wearing her collared fleece pajamas, but has a crewneck over that.

“Can I sit with you, Robs?”

“Yeah baby, come here!” Robin scoots to the corner of the couch and then opens her arms as if waiting for a hug. Nancy knew Robin had an affinity for seeing her in this state, and despite feeling lousy, she was happy to indulge.

The pale brunette climbs onto the couch and lays down, head in Robin’s lap, hugging the box of tissues.

“Ehh … ii’KTCHyue!”

A small patch of spray settles right on Robin’s thigh, making her insides feel hot. She can feel a damp spot starting to form on her underwear.

“Bless you, sweetie! You sounded like you needed that…” She puts feelers out, wanting to talk about Nancy’s cold.

“Ngh, yeah.” Nancy says, “Sorry didn’t mean to mess up your pants. Just so tired… couldn’t cover.”

Robin bites her lip, “Let me help you then. You need your rest anyways.”

She reaches down and traces her finger around Nancy’s pink, damp nostrils. They flare as she moves.

Nancy inhales sharply and Robin hovers her cupped hand over Nancy’s face.

“essh’yue! snlff H’eTCHh!”

Robin turns crimson as Nancy sprays her hand. Smiling devilishly, she takes the hand covered in spray and puts it in her pants, moaning slightly as she slips her fingers inside.

“Robs I’m hhhh I’m gonna… k’TCHew! H’eTSCHuh! snfsnff T’ssiEW!”

Robin tilted her head back, hips moving with each shake release from Nancy. The younger woman had a tissue clad left hand clamped over Nancy’s nose.

“Blow your nose, baby.”

Nancy hesitated slightly, but could tell Robin was close. She took a deep breath and gave a thick blow into the tissues.

Robin moaned as she pinched the tissue away from Nancy’s face. Breathing heavy, she removed her hand and reached for another tissue.

Nancy looked up at Robin, “I don’t think I need to blow my nose again yet Robs.”

Robin laughed, wiping her hand, “Actually Nance, this one’s for me.”

New allergy unlocked: being sick.

Started feeling sick last Sunday. Quickly spiraled into the worst illness I've experienced in years. Fever, headache, body ache, chills, light sensitivity, noise sensitivity, definitely delirious at times. Even my eyelashes hurt. I spent 3 days just taking cold meds, hydrating, and staying in my dark bedroom cave. On the second day I noticed a rash too.

I think my fever broke Tuesday night? I didn't actually check it until Wednesday morning after taking more cold meds and feeling like I could stay standing for longer than a couple minutes. It was 100.6F then. Rash continues to spread.

Feel mostly human again on Thursday with just a headache and the rash. Friday I go to urgent care since the rash continues to spread and doesn't look like it's getting better.

I have hives.

I'm at the stage where all the doctors are telling me "It's viral. There's nothing we can do." And also "There's nothing we can get do for your fractured ribs". I'm really tired and I hurt. But it is what it is. I had a much angrier draft written around 3 am about my thoughts on the American Healthcare system but I'm just so fucking tired.

I did manage, after many phone calls, get the medicine I needed so that's something. Although I couldn't get the full amount due to insurance limitations. But it's something. Seriously, fuck you America. You suck.

My blog and all my creative endeavors have been seriously neglected and I have some catching up to do. I'll do what I can. Miss everyone for sure. *hugs the fandom*

Stay healthy, my peeps.

I am so depressed today… just everything weighing on me heavily. I feel I’ve had undiagnosed ADHD my entire life and it makes living very difficult. My brain never stops and I can’t focus. I’m messy and have to write lists of every single thing I want to do because if I don’t I will never remember I want to do that. It makes me feel like I am not good enough on top of everything I already deal with. And then it pisses me off that I’m 31 and no dr was ever like hey maybe we could try medication and change your life! But if I were a dude I feel I’d have been diagnosed early on. Everything is a fight all the time constantly.

Feeling physically terrible after gardening and I have so much to do this week. Like really… gardening!? I want to go on a run! I want to lift weights! I want to do it all! And I’m sooo limited. I want to be a boss ass bitch!

I’m planning on having a yard sale this weekend, gotta finish getting my plants in the ground and make some sample strawberries to sell for graduations. Doing this on top of working is tough but I know I’m good at it and I know I could get better and have it turn into something I can do and enjoy more. I get so tired of having to be so strong and push myself so hard. Some days I just want to quit but I know I want more for myself. It just feels so unfair that I have to work so much harder to do normal things I enjoy. Saw something on Twitter about how different countries kill dogs in insane ways to eat and now I’m like man this world is…. Too much for my soft heart. I’m too soft. Just wish the universe would let me wear pink and look pretty and make everything get easier. Fuck.

I know I will keep pushing and keep finding ways to move forward. Some days I just have a lil breakdown as a treat and then I keep on trying.

I feel like the mental impact of being chronically ill is not talked about as near enough as it should be. Our lives are turned completely upside down by something beyond our own control. We constantly wonder “is this it?” “Will it ever get better?” “Is it going to get worse?” On the bad days, we survive from moment to moment. We wonder whether we’ll actually get through the day. We grieve for our old lives & who we used to be. We feel like a completely different person. Our confidence is impacted. We can often feel worthless & like we’ve failed. We feel like giving up. Every single day is a massive struggle.

But because this is our life & this is our normal, or new normal, we’re expected to just “get on with it.”

So based on all of that, I just wanted to say that you are NOT worthless. You are not a failure. You are extremely strong. You’re actually stronger than most. Most people wouldn’t be able to deal with all that you do on a daily basis. You wake up every single day & put up a fight. An endless fight. An unpredictable fight. A never ending fight. But you still do it. You’re amazing, you’re beyond strong & you should be very proud of yourself xxxxx

We just got the news. My sister is diagnosed with breast cancer. She's got a malignant tumor. And chemotherapy will start before christmas....

I am... I don't know what to say or think right now. My brain is a blank space- but at the same time there are a thousand horrific scenarios battling each other. I just know that I love her and that I don't want to lose her. God please... PLEASE...

Okay stupid hc but I totally believe that Sirius Black has CIPA, like think about it, he's inbred as hell and he'd likely have some form of illness so why not the thing that makes you not able to feel pain, it's almost an oxymoron since the house of black is basically a synonym for pain. (Also regulus is totally deaf)

It's crazy how your relatives will speculate all types of illnesses when you tell them your symptoms. But when you actually show your symptoms all of a sudden you're lazy and "too young" for all that.
