Viginti Septem posted:What do you enjoy doing? that’s a hard question because like.. i like doing a lot of things creative-wise. but with music specifically, i enjoyed music as a hobby because i used it as an escape. then when I started taking classes for it, and it became something i had to study and put more effort into, i started to despise it. it became work. i was spending my own money to take classes and i wasn’t even enjoying it anymore. i like writing, and literature, but i don’t think i could be a english/lit teacher because i’m autistic and I’m super not good with leadership. i enjoyed my psychology class last semester, enjoyed learning about the human mind, but again, i can’t see myself being a psychiatrist or a music therapist or really using that degree for anything.

I think it's a combination of the exercise and just getting yourself out of your physical location and moving through new ones. Being in a different place than normal helps change your perspective on all kinds of things.

I drew this 2day I haven't been able to escape distractions all day, I really struggle with noise sometimes and am incapable of tuning it out, when there's a lot of noise I can't function and just stare off into space and get anxious. Today there has been constant unavoidable noise - sirens, neighbors, dogs. And every time it gets quiet for a minute both of my cats suddenly appear doing their adorable but shrill and painful little "give me attention" cries and I have not had a contiguous five minutes to focus on anything all day

I really should be doing it more if just to get my joints and bones stretched. Plus it really does just feel nice to feel the sun and wind on your face if even for a few minutes.

Just had a breakdown and cried hard over a lot of poo poo. I was thinking I was getting past these thoughts, what with the therapy and meds and such. Now I'm wondering if I'm just really good at fooling myself. Kacie came over to me as I was crying and pecked the tears off my cheeks and was just so sweet to me that I lost it again. She was so concerned for me 😭 she's the greatest part of my life. https://i.imgur.com/9jTkSUL.mp4 |

in my experiance, rough times involve taking in a lot of pain, and not processing it because it isn't safe yet. you're still in survival mode and maybe you haven't eaten in a few days or whatever. anyways things start to get better, and you'll be watching a movie or listening to a song and something will pop up that is a key to pain, and it works itself out. again, in my very individual and specific diamond cut fractal self same as everyone's experience when i'm weeping at a gum commercial it means i'm getting better, as hosed as that it is.

I'm without my meds again because the new kind that my doctor switched me to (to avoid the original kind being out of stock constantly) has been out of stock for 2 straight weeks and I'm currently 18 minutes deep in waiting on hold to talk to my doctor's office about switching back to the old medication, which is in stock . I can't even explain how much I hate going through this every single month |

It's just getting so frustrating, I can't hold a job because I spend one week a month unable to work for reasons outside of my control but that don't qualify for any job protections because lmao it's prescription drug withdrawal. So now I'm falling behind on bills and everything is spiraling out of control  I spent 40 minutes on hold to talk to my doctor's office. After 40 mins I got through and the receptionist said the doctor was with another patient and would need to call me back. I set down the phone, walked to the kitchen and got a drink, and when I got back I realized they had called and I missed the call. So now there's another 40+ minute hold ahead of me to call and say sorry for missing that call, can you call again? I just want to never have to deal with this again so this might be the time where I just cancel my future doctors appointments and learn to live without meds |

My morning so far has been: Wake up, call pharmacy, wait on hold for 20 mins to find out if they can fill my prescription today. They say they can't but they can fill my old prescription if my doctor sends it in. Call my doctor's office and wait on hold for 40 mins to leave a message with my doctor's medical assistant. I miss their call back that came less than a minute after I left a message with the receptionist. Call my pharmacy and wait on hold for 15 minutes to see if they got a new prescription. They did! Except it was just the one that they can't fill sent in again, they sent the wrong one. Call my doctor's office and wait on hold for 10 minutes (currently) to ask them to send in the right prescription

yeah that sounds frustrating as hell. hmmm have you looked into the possibility of talking to a patient advocacy group that might be able to help you deal with the red tape/bullshit/etc to stop this from happening regularly? just if the meds are helping wehn they're available it really sucks that you're having to look at going off them due to this crap |

There's nothing that can be done, there's a national shortage of amphetamine medications and has been for about 8 months due to staffing issues in the packaging plant, the way amphetamines are scheduled means that the manufacturers are not able to produce extra to make up for a backlog, and combined with a huge surge in prescriptions since the start of the pandemic they can't keep up with demand. But they legally can't manufacture more without rescheduling amphetamines (which won't happen) or getting whatever authorization they need to start manufacturing more which isn't as simple as it sounds. The super long wait times and stuff are things I've experienced with literally everything healthcare-related since the start of the pandemic, and also because of the way amphetamines are scheduled I can't really have anyone talk to the prescriber/pharmacy on my behalf So realistically there is no end in sight I'm going to try switching to Costco as my pharmacy though, they might have better luck keeping meds in stock |

I've been awake for 6 hours and have been on the phone the entire time The current status is my doctor keeps writing prescriptions for 20mg doses, which the Pharmacy tells me they can't fill because they have no 20mg in stock but they do have 15mg in stock, then I call my doctor and he calls my pharmacy and they tell him they do have 20mg in stock, so he writes it for 20mg again. Then I have to wait an hour for the pharmacy to process it and tell me they don't have 20mg. This has happened 3 times so far today and every single time there's a 10+ minute wait to call the pharmacy and a 30+ minute wait to call the doctor's office (which is now closed for the evening!) |
