me: *still can't concentrate but now not concentrating while vibing*

It took me way too long to realise I genuinely needed more rests and sleep than other people because having four learning disabilities (including one that made moving my body more tiring than it needed to be, one that made reading anything more work than it needed to be, and one that makes focusing more draining than it needed to be) exhausts you faster than not having any of them or even only having them in moderation

My brain was out here being exhausted by the act of reading, moving, and concentrating on anything, and I never connected it to the fact that I constantly disagreed with people over how much sleep we needed

People would be like we 'only need 8 hours sleep', and my tired ass would be like 'um, actually...' and it's like 8 hours was probably true for them but not for my severely dyslexic, severely dyspraxia, and ADHD ass

My brain was exhausted just from existing let alone actually having to do stuff

Of course I need more sleep

Annoying how symptoms of depression and anxiety dovetail so neatly with symptoms of anemia.

(TW) Here’s the thing I’ve been struggling with something for more than 13 years without knowing what it was. Ever since I was 12 or 13 year old, every time my period was near, it was a living hell. I felt suicidal, I have no energy to do anything, I have trouble sleeping and concentrating. I just wanted to exist but not really be alive, I would snap at anyone or I would feel an intense anger at them even though they haven’t done anything to me. For 13 years I’ve been left in the dark, not knowing why I would get like this and why it would happen when it was 2 weeks before my period arrived. I honestly thought I was going crazy or maybe the doctors were right and I was being overdramatic. After I had that attempt on my life in 2017 (that day I was feeling really suicidal and I just wanted to end my pain) I thought I was the only one who would get like this but now in 2022, I finally learned that this has a name, a reason and that many people suffer from this... it is called PMDD...

It is such a relief knowing that I wasn’t going crazy or exaggerating like those professionals told me, I just didn’t know of PMDD!

Zero appetites, medically termed anorexia develop as a complete lack of desire to eat, often signalling underlying health concerns. Characterised by a loss of appetite despite hunger cues, it can lead to severe weight loss, malnutrition, and compromised immune function. Causes range from physical conditions such as infections, hormonal imbalances, and digestive disorders to psychological factors like stress, depression, or eating disorders. According to research, around 0.9% of women and 0.3% of men will experience anorexia at some point in their life. It means that approximately 1 in every 100 women and 1 in every 300 men will develop an eating disorder.

People face diverse challenges in life. No one is exempted from it. Whether we like it or not, it is the reality. We are all prone to encountering different obstacles on a regular basis. Learning to deal with them in a healthy way is essential for people. It’s a basic principle when it comes to behavioral health care in New York. This is why healthy stress management is a must. It doesn’t only protect people from mental illnesses, but it also enhances their overall quality of life.

RwD season 2 finale and listening to Austen get it half right with the cooking nonsense

#day musings #rolling with difficulty #he disclaimed he didnt know whats up #and its not that deep #Like yes a reduction would work #but that's not so much that it's purifying #its essentially creating a concentration #Yummy twilight flavor #yk #That was all lighthearted of course #its truly not that deep

The feeling you get after finally finishing a book, after a long time of not being able to do so because of various issues with your focus, is indescribable

Couldn’t be happier!

#the book was watership down - fitting for the first month of the year of the rabbit lol #and i finished it in less than a month too! #i know it sounds like such a small thing but with the difficulties i've had with concentration and stuff this feels like such a win #personal

percy jackson was extremely important to nine year old me who had behavioural problems, had trouble reading, had trouble writing, and had gone through six schools in six years all while everyone was under the delusion i was smart and i felt the delusion was starting to crumble

#shout out to my sixth grade literature teacher #for being the first teacher in my life to go #this kid needs help #even though she couldn't legally do anything unrelated to literature #so she told me to go to the teacher's lounge after class #i thought i did something wrong #i'd been failing to read her short story assignments and couldn't exactly write anything down #i was also a huge disruptor in her class especially #but instead of getting mad or punishing me she lent me a copy of percy jackson and the lightning thief #and told me to read it and return it bu the end of the month #and i could've pretended to have read it #it did feel like extra work she was making me do #but i read the first chapter #and thought #oh percy's just like me fr fr #and kept reading and thought #annabeth is even more just like me fr fr #and the part of me that i was always ashamed of #my difficulty with words and concentration #the fact that my dad died when i was young #these were things that happened to these characters #and i guess a lot of things had to have went right for me to turn out like this

#ive been having... strange health problems? #i hate health problems because i hate hospitals and doctors and most things of that sort #(ive had my fair share of bad experiences with health professionals) #(btw when i share this here im not looking for a diagnosis. just venting about my bad body and dislike for doctors) #okay so the wackest thing: this summer (working at summer camp) i had the strangest thing happen? #in the morning i was flapping (fun stim for me) bcuz i got to teach something i liked. but then it was hard to stop #and from then on i kept flapping and shaking and like. tensing in my neck and shoulders? and i couldn't stop it #so i was uncontrollably shaking and moving and kind of. seizing i guess? #and i was stuttering to the point of not being able to hold a conversation or even talk really #the only thing i could say clearly was 'fuck!' which is kinda funny ngl #i went to the health lodge and they gave me ibuprofen because the tensing was giving me a bad headache and they didnt know what else to do #after taking the ibuprofen and lying down for an hour my soul stopped trying to escape #but that was obviously very perplexing! #and also. i have medicine. going off of this medicine cold turkey can be very bad for me #some fun side effects have been: dizziness. sleepiness. zoning out/difficulty concentrating. difficulty speaking #just all around makes it miserable and hard to function. i looked it up and it may be a focal aware seizure caused by withdrawal #and thats kind of what ive been going off of. it is likely a focal aware seizure because thats a side effect and my symptoms match #but then it started happenig even when I'd been consistently on my meds #i remember one night (at camp) i had a really terrible seizure? i could barely function or stay alert.i felt like i was only half conscious #and two nights ago it happened again. and at least once weekly for the last month or so. it doesnt last more than 15-30 minutes #but its miserable. and i kind of want answers and help but id rather die than go to a doctor. i don't feel like ill be taken seriously #i know that if i go to a doctor it wont ve an easy process if they take me seriously and try to figure it out. and itll suck if they dont #i hate when this happens. it feels like death and i dont want it to keep happening #even though im kind of getting used to it im always afraid of when itll happen or if itll get worse #or if something like the stuttering+seizing will happen again. that was terrible. a friend brought me lunch and stayed while i ate #cuz he was afraid id choke. he made me go to the health lodge and made me rest and i owe that asshole a lot. hes a great friend #it was scary especially since i dont know what caused it! the health officers didnt knowand just said if it got worse i should go to the ER #this is scary but tbh i might be more scared to seek answers or treatment #god i hate doctors. and hospitals. and anything medical. i didn't even want to see the damn camp health officers but my friend made me #idk what to do or anything i just wanted to complain cuz this is miserable

Researchers have discovered that leaky blood vessels, together with a hyperactive immune system may be the underlying cause of brain fog in people with long covid. They suggest their discovery is important for the understanding of brain fog and cognitive decline – difficulty with thinking, memory or concentration – seen in some people with the condition. It is hoped the findings will help with the development of treatments in the future.

To Summarize:

Long Covid sufferers experience symptoms like forgetfulness and concentration issues due to leakiness in brain blood vessels, according to research findings.

Scientists from Trinity College Dublin and FutureNeuro confirm that Long Covid patients with brain fog have disrupted blood vessels in their brains, making the neurological symptoms measurable.

Blood vessel leakage in the brain, along with an overactive immune system, may be the key drivers of brain fog in Long Covid patients, leading to potential changes in understanding and treating post-viral conditions.

I can't find a single right-wing news source covering this.
