#also muscle cramps

[ganondoodle]

i feel like my validation fueled drive to draw is running low so even tho i kinda want to draw non fanart or game dev stuff i cant get myself to do it bc i know it wont get much attention

#ganondoodles talks #random #not talking about numbers #like i know its wild to think about some shitty doodle getting seen and liked by 100 people #but i need like #direct comments #or something #at least thats whats keeping me going #idk #might also be me dealing with cramps and all the side effects of that shit too #i feel like my body is unable to un-tense my muscles #idk if thats from that issue or something else #but i hate it nonetheless #i cant comit to working on anything bc its not gonna get me the kind of feedback i need right now #perhaps it will be gone tomorrow but i hate sitting around doing nothing #been playing some game a little more but its doing a number on my thumb so i cant keep that up like this lol

I love being T4T. My gf has been on estrogen for a couple weeks now and she's been having a rough time with her mood so I'm teaching her about the ancient art of soaking in a bubble bath with a little drink to sip while watching shows on your laptop

#pro-tip for any girls newly on E. this is The Cure for PMS #(which accurately describes what youre going through btw) #other great cures include putting on nice smelling lotion and fuzzy socks and wrapping yourself in a blanket burrito/nest #also eating lots of chocolate or other sweets and drinking your favorite caffeinated beverages #my mom used to always put on lotion and fuzzy socks and drink dr pepper and eat chocolate #my cousin likes to watch netflix in the bath with wine and then get in a blanket burrito with her favorite lemonade tea #if youve got someone to take care of you then you dont even have to come out of the burrito. you can just ask them to bring you things #all of these methods help a lot. we're experts on this you can trust me (family of people with endometriosis) #also if youre having headaches and bloating and stomach pain you might try midol (generic works fine) #it has acetaminophen for pain + caffeine for headaches (like excedrin) + antihistamine for bloating #also to clarify: i said girls newly on E only bc i figured girls who have been on it for a while might have already figured this stuff out #but PMS is by no means exclusive to transfems who have newly started on E #many transfems have reported getting PMS symptoms and even cramps on a monthly basis after being on estrogen for a while #this is bc after a while on E your body can start naturally making more estrogen and this can come with its own hormone cycle #and as a result you can essentially get all of the symptoms of a period just without the actual bleeding #(this can include cramps bc even in cis women the signals for the muscle spasms can sometimes get misdirected to nearby organs— #unfortunately causing stomach issues as well) #so if anyone out there happens to not already know this information and youve been feeling like shit periodically for seemingly no reason #now you know 😅 #its your period #rambling

i have a question for those of you who have used floppy disks on computers designed for floppy disks: ARE THEY ALWAYS THIS SLOW???????

i cannot tell if the problem lies with the adapter i'm using, with my laptop, or the floppy disks themselves. all i know is my laptop is acting like it just climbed 200 feet of rope in 20 minutes

if anyone wants context i'm trying to process and archive a bunch of hydro data from the 90s that only exists on these floppy disks

#floppy disks #floppy discs #i can't spell #also i know what it feels like to climb 200 feet of rope in 20 minutes (it took me 18 minutes) and it's not a good feeling #i feel like the mix of like out of breath near panic and the frozen with exhaustion and muscle cramping really accurately describe how #my laptop is acting #also just like. the adapter itself. oh my god.

I’m in so much pain I’m having trouble breathing 🫶

#getting the strangest sharp ass stomach pains that are also making my back pain worse and my panicking from the cramping pain is making me #tense up and making my muscle pain worse I’m trapped in an evil vicious cycle help #☁️

Begging my body to cease with the hurts and sensations so I can go to sleep

#I’m Too Aware of the feeling of my flesh and how the muscles and skin move as I shift. laying on my back is too flat it hurts due to the #cramps. laying on my side is hell due to the I feel how stuff shifts for my shoulders to not be stacked one on top of the other bc that’s to #hard to balance and also uncomfortable #a.

Also I gotta be fucking honest I crave killing and maiming and destruction like a rabid dog everytime I remember the only treatment for vaginismus and vulvodynia is related to beign able to have penetrative sex and not some actual fucking care about the person's health. Truly think vulvodynia is actually more than one issue they just overlapped into a single label

#jorjposting #are you seriously trying to convince me it's the same issue for different nerve endings and pain sensations. #also WHY are you only giving a shit about vaginismus in people who talk about it in relation to sex i swear to fucking god #y'all never give a shit about it if the person starts getting muscle cramps from it or never use a tampon #it's ALWAYS because boo hoo pp can't go in without causing excruciating pain :( #i'm about to become the joker.

Hey y’all! Weird question time, below a read more this time because it’s medical related (it’s just questions about muscle cramps and muscle spasms but saying the word “muscle” too many times squicks out my sister so I figure it must bother other people too. Also some of these questions might count as describing injuries? Idk where the line is there)

I have a series of questions, because the very nice nurse said “you know that’s not normal, right?” but idk where normal is on this scale: - do you ever have an individual muscle cramp that lasts more than a day? - do you ever have muscle cramps so severe the cramp is visible to other people? - what’s the difference between a muscle cramp and a knot in a muscle? is it just severity? - I am assuming this is related to the muscle cramps, but do you ever have it where a muscle/tendon/ligament/I don’t know anatomy is so tight it feels like a pulling on your bones when you go to move? For me this happens most often with muscle issues either in my neck or under my shoulderblades pulling at my collarbones, but I’ve had so many muscle cramps in my torso today that if I move wrong I can feel a pulling at the front of my hipbone - do you ever get muscle cramps on the side of your neck or face that impact your ability to open your eye on one side?  - do you ever get those face muscle cramps as a result of food allergies??? I feel like that one is weird but idk *how* weird - do you ever get muscle cramps/spasms between the bones of your ribs that feel like they are trying to shove the ribs apart?  - without an injury or workout beforehand, do you ever get muscle spasms where it’s just a part of a muscle twitching visibly but painlessly that you may or may not be able to feel, for anywhere from minutes to hours?  - do you ever get muscle spasms in your ear? And if so, have you also experienced the like “oh shit” levels of instant vertigo/dizziness when that happens? I have only had inner ear muscle spasms a few times but they suck

#the person behind the yarn #tj asks weird questions #medical mention #injury tw #I mean not really an injury probably? not sure where the line is there with severe muscle cramps #...or if these count as severe muscle cramps? or moderate? #before my doctors figured out the whole sodium georg thing I used to get muscle cramps and spasms severe enough #that they thought I had a problem in my body's electrical system #and I am overall doing WAY better than I was then #but like...I think that might've broken my scale of muscle cramp severity? #because back then sometimes my muscles would cramp or spasm so bad I'd be walking and my leg would collapse out from under me #and like these last few days there's been a couple times when my leg clearly didn't want to take my weight #but it still could? so not as bad #also I suspect I might need to talk to my doctor about what i've been calling allergic reactions #because uh. I don't think allergies usually cause face muscle cramps?? #which means it's probably allergies affecting whatever's messed up with my endocrine system or something #so it's allergies + something else #and that might help them figure out what that something else is

ordered a really big water bottle that comes with like a special case that has a strap on it so i can go for my walks without having to either carry my water bottle in my hands (heavy and often times annoying because i only have one free hand to do stuff with) or bring my backpack with me (often times overheats me when it's warm out and like if i'm just going for a walk around my grandma's neighbourhood or the area around my house, it's overkill because i don't need an entire backpack when most of my things fit in my fanny pack) and i am very excited about it......

#the water bottle can hold like 2 litres of water..... #it's so funny like 9 years ago when i was in residential treatment the dietitian was always getting on my case #about never drinking enough water like i used to be super dehydrated all the time and often times would get nauseous and have bad headaches #and get really bad muscle cramps #and now i'm like I HAVE TO BRING A BIG WATER BOTTLE WHEREVER I GO!!!! I NEED TO HAVE MY WATER!!!!! #and i will not leave my house without a big water bottle #but also when i was younger i like didn't take my health seriously and now i like care a lot about my health #like i eat a lot of fruit as a snack and i try to exercise every day if the weather is ok like it's not pissing rain or snowing #and i try to stay hydrated cause when i was younger i used to feel sick a lot cause of dehydration and like the other stuff i mention #idk sorry i'm rambling i am just like so excited about my new water bottle like the case is really cute and comes with little charms!! #it's like a spooky sort of pattern like it's feminine but idc i'm secure enough in my masculinity to have a purple water bottle #with like a cute spooky case #i'm thinking of getting my sister one for christmas if i like it! #we'll see.... #anyways this is like what being 27 is like for me i'm excited about getting a big water bottle and carrying case and i sit outside and read

Knitvember day seven, got a decent amount done. Baby had a good, long nap late this morning. Unfortunately he complained and wanted a nap at 4 too, and so I let him. He didn't go to bed until 9, he's usually asleep by 8 at the latest. No more naps after 4 is now the new rule.

Tomorrow I'm going to load him onto the bike and go about two kms or so. I'm just getting back into shape. I found out that I have a range of 60km on my bike, so that's awesome.

#Knitvember #Don't want to accidentally cramp up my muscles by doing too much again #I also need to raise the seat on my bike #Because it's for short people of course

For those that get their period; does orgasming help?

Maybe it's cus of my pcos but I feel like the periods I m*sterbate through are easier than the ones where I don't (pls feel free to add your two cents!)

#tw: period talk #I've got a meaty thick undercarriage #and I think I'm general my bodies muscles are tight n hard like rocks #so I feel like the act of cmming opens me up and pushes shit out #I get sick sometimes cus it all gets trapped inside of me #and I'm like an extremely heavy bleeder #it's kinda the same feeling as throwing up or di*rrhea #it's gross and unpleasant but also it feels good cus you can feel the bad things leaving you???? #i probably sound weird I'm SORRY I don't have a therapist 😭 #yknow the scooper from the FNAF series? I feel like I scoop my insides every time I c-m #aggsdfffff tmi but sorry😭 #feel free to leave your experiences/advice/opinions etc if you get a period #it's gross but we need to talk to each other kinda like finding out y'all get paid differently before y'all decide on a union #I'm sorry I high and lonely aggssffffff #anyway let's discuss periods cus I never had that safe place in my life #scenario: my partner gives me forced O s to make my cramps feel better and they shush my sobs with my favorite chocolate #i don't feel like a woman🙃 #like...I feel so seperate from the concept todsy #God wouldn't give me these feelings pre weed if they didn't mean something #some days gebder is really hard and I want people to see -real name- not my gender :/ #like I'm one of those people who'd use my name as pronouns #I'm just a lil fella #the plots of muppets in space has been my entire life #I feel like it'd be eaiser if I was fully trans cus like #that sounds more legit than 'sometimes I feel different genders' #it sounds like I smoked at least I can see my dad thinking that #I wouldn't even make my dad or family use different pronouns or even involve them in that part of my identity #but I feel like by them not knowing it's a big lie and I really hate lying :( #that's what made me come out as gay even tho I was single #I just...I don't like hiding or lying I wanna share the real me

psyhosomatic pain is so fucking frustrating. what do you MEAN i can give myself cramps by idly thinking about it but can't fix all my problems by thinking about ibuprofen really hard?????????????????? fuck my stupid baka life

#'keeping a healthy diet and weight can reduce psychosomatic pain' good luck with that one bucko #my non mental conditions would love to have a word with you about their apetite-reducing and muscle-destroying tendancies #also i genuinely don't think i can do anything about the psychosomacy bc it MIMICS SYMPTOMS OF MY OTHER DISORDERS #ex. i get super bad cramps before i start my period almost as soon as i take my placebos #but the psychosomatic pain summons them at random. speak of the devil I HAVE THEM RN AND MY NEXT CYCLE IS IN *MARCH* #not that i could ask anyone about it anyway without them either denying it or claiming all my other proven stuff is psychosomatic #including but not limited to: my hormone inbalances and LITERAL HONEST TO GOD DEFORMED SPINE #not just my chronic pains

[gremlinbehaviour]

fucking. ow

#i stopped doing my pt while traveling but didn't stop moving all the time so now my joints are weak as fuck but my muscles are strong #but in the wrong ways and too tight #so they're constantly cramping up and pulling on my body painfully #i want to sleep more but my legs and stomach muscles keep seizing up and also jetlag #chronic pain #and my pain tolerance is such that I can't bear to try to massage out the muscles because it hurts way too bad

So I rented a saxophone as a reward for finishing my portfolio and I recently got around to figuring out how to make sound on it. So of course the first thing I do is play the Club Canach song

It's not perfectly played (and there's a lot of key clicking noises bc Idk how to edit those out) But just wanted to show because I've been having a lot of fun playing it.

#My rambles #I Had to physically stop myself from playing much more after recording this today #I've been playing this saxophone every night for the past 3 days #and I played it on saturday #my lips and cheeks hurt so much #Today is just me body hurt week #My mouth hurts from playing the sax #my arm muscles hurt (So much) from pole dancing #And now my hand also hurts from drawing a bit today #but it's all a good kinda pain like I was doing stuff #(except the period cramps those weren't good pain)

#boy I sure do love waking up multiple times in the dead of night because I’m in agonizing pain #fell asleep weirdly early then woke up at midnight to a headache and bad cramps AND achy muscles #and I couldn’t get my hands on any aspirin or anything #stayed up until after 2 and woke up multiple times after THAT aaaaarrreghh #I apologize in advance for my projected attitude today #also for the breakdown I’ll probably have sometime this afternoon #yeah sorry that was a rant #delete later #rambles from the floor
