#TAKE. YOUR. INHALER.

Ong you had Asthma that badly??? That's scary af are u OK now?

~🪀

Hey, Yoyo! Don't you worry, I'm fine now, thanks for asking 🥰❤️. It was many years ago that I experienced a similar attack. I haven't had an attack in a long time now since most people grow out of their asthma. It still plays up sometimes, and I need a puff, but nothing that's had me hospitalised like the big one did.

I was 17-18, and in college, doing a costal hike with my class. It was cold and damp, and we were all carrying HUGE bags with tents and everything. I was sweating like crazy despite the cold. We stopped at a small tourist toilet spot to have a drink and whatnot, I went to the bathroom, and that's when the attack started. It was a cough, then, I couldn't get a breath, as usual, after literally seconds, I couldn't see to unlock the door.

Luckily, my friend heard me banging on the stall door from inside. She crawled under and unlocked it. By the time the teacher arrived, I had thrown up and was unconscious. I don't remember much, but I remember being cold and feeling gravity suddenly vanishing.

My teacher resuscitated me and I remember feeling like I had been asleep for days, even though it was literally seconds. They told me when I woke up that I was seeing things, talking absolute rubbish about sand or something?? Unfortunately, I also wet myself. Come on, as if an asthma attack wasn't embarrassing enough XD

The attack itself only lasted about a minute. Less severe ones can last longer, since you won't pass out.

Sooooo, yeah, not fun XD I passed my exam though! I think they just felt sorry for me! Lesson here kids! ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR INHALER!!!!

Operator, I gotta know. How is the sleeping situation? Does Ingo snore? Does Emmet? Do you get enough sleep at night? Should I get you some ear plugs?

i don’t think it’s the operator that you should be worried about.

Paparazzi: Please we just want to interview you all! Korra, holding the door down: Damn it they found out about us! Kyoshi, helping her: So uhhhh what do we do? Yangchen: Sigh, we could just answer their questions. Korra and Kyoshi: Yeah no our public image isn't the best, and we really suck with that type of stuff. Aang: I'm a child. :) Kuruk: I don't deal with people. Roku: Something tells me we'll regret talking with them. So, no. Yangchen: FINE! I'll talk to them. What's the worst that can happen?

Reporter: Yangchen! Yangchen! What's it like being the only Dom in a long line of Subs? Yangchen: This panel is closed!

✦ 7. - 12. 5. 24 ✦ 📓 ✦ School break/ trip!! ✦

One of my very specific dreams came true!! I could study in a skysraper (the hotel I was staying at) with a fantastic view!! It was a perfect sitting width window sill with pillows - journaling there with the night city lights was the biggest vibe.

It was a vacation after all, so I didn`t commit much time to studying, except during the train rides. Now I am technically behind my 'schedule', but the 5 museums were worth it.

🗒 What I managed to do is:

finish history summary

continue eco summary

find a ton of inspiration for art (sketchbook ideas)/ took many photos to draw, so I won't run out of ideas for a long time

I have seen some horrors, so here's a PSA to all my homies who have asthma/use inhalers.

I have seen too many people use their inhaler improperly, essentially making the medicine useless, and it makes my own chest hurt just watching it. 🥲

Shake it first before you use it

Exhale as deep as you can before you take the puff, and inhale as deeply as you can while you are pressing down on the canister. A normal shallow breath won't get the medicine in your chest, so it won't do anything to help.

Make sure your lips are closed around the mouthpiece when you take the puff! Treat it like a kazoo or a harmonica. If your lips are not all the way around, some air might escape out the gaps.

After you take the puff, hold your breath for ten seconds if you are able. If not, try for at least 5. It's important to hold the medication in your lungs so it can do its work.

Wait a bit and take deep breaths in between the first and second puff.

I hope this helps. Stay healthy and take care of your lungs! Mucus buildup can be torture sometimes, so we gotta make sure we aren't making things harder for ourselves than we already are. :D

so i may have done a little self needed splurgeee for myself at bath & bodyworks today (they had such a great deal today that I simply COULDN'T refuse! ugh I love themmmm!) and I can't stop thinking about how you'd buy a couple of pretty body mists/sprays and wear it faintly around back at HQ. Receiving a few compliments from your fellow spiders and what not, and eventually, it leads you to catching the big brooding guy's attention himself.

steals a few glances at you, always slyly lulling in closer to you, like suavely leering over the strut of your right shoulder, angling his nose to hover over your open skin — just to inhale that delectable sweet aroma that resonated off of you (one whiff and that man is on you like a magnet). mumbling out how nice you smelt and how that particular scent suited you, perfectly (which, you totally didn't mentally freak out from his sudden praise of likeness to your new perfume, due to his sensitive senses you'd thought it would actually irritate him!).

[paranorahjones]

i just.

why do i even try at this point.

spent last night hanging out at a game night with some friends. a certain guy was there, one who i have talked about recently, and we clicked pretty immediately and i felt like there was definitely a vibe going on.

woke up this morning to find out that one of my friends who was also there learned that he has a girlfriend whom he recently started dating.

i'm just done. i'm so done. there's always something. every time i think there's a chance, the rug gets ripped out from under me and i'm humiliated once again. i give up.

Has Raven/Jersey ever broken a bone?

alright, *cracks knuckles*

this one goes out to sickfic princess ana and whumpwhiz rp.

*blows a kiss to the heavens bc they're angels* MWAH!

but aaaaany-knee-ways:

...it's interesting, actually.

( or at least, it is to me, darling. )

because of how he's written, you'd think probably think, 'oh, but nina! jerseykyle gets in all these fights. he's all big and tough and strong! he prolly breaks bones all the time!" and that's precisely IT, my dear!

jersey breaks bones;

he does not get his bones broken.

EVER.

and i suppose that's because he is a seasoned fighter. ergo, he knows how to throw a wicked punch, where exactly on your body it will hurt or humiliate you the most -- probably a combination of the two if he's feeling particularly pissed that day ( everyday ) -- how many times to do it, where you're vulnerable, sees everyone as a possible adversary and thus, weaponizes the moment he sees you, surveys you, sizes you up, indicates what kind of threat you are and…

Promptly Neutralizes You.

he takes all these precautions, runs all these tedious, elaborate tests and intense, premeditated processes of elimination ( literally ), not just because he does not like losing, which he doesn't...but because he literally can't. simply put: he does not know how to lose or get hit.

see, jersey does not cope with pain very well. mentally or physically. that's why he inflicts pain, because he is secretly scared of feeling it.

on the outside, he is a harsh, frightening, impenetrable, menacing thing covered in barbs and wires and armed heavily, because on the inside he is extremely fragile and should even the smallest chink in his armor form, his entire fierce façade will shatter into smithereens.

he does not like to get hurt, to feel weak, to feel unpleasant and horrible things, so he does everything in his power to be powerful so that he will never feel powerless. it's why he learned how to fight, it wasn't to hit people, it was to avoid being hit by other people. it was a defense mechanism because of how often he got bullied and how weak he constantly was from swimming out against the current of all his chronic illnesses. a lot of people would just let go of that short stick that life gave them and drown, but not kyle. not my baby. no, his life belongs to him. so he sharpened that stick into the shiv...

stuck it straight through the gut of life,

— and made god beg for HIS mercy.

but yes, it's all a perfectly placed show. because my boy, scary and frightening as he may be swinging those freckled fists of fury...

is a fucking WUSS.

who has not broken a lot of bones actually! not his anyways! because when he does lose a fight, he is a sore fucking loser indeed because he's suddenly hit with all this pain that he does not know how to endure or deal with and literally is such a baby and a princess, omg.

i /swear/ that WHOLE divorce whumpshot para and the one of him barfighting is him acting really tough and cool, but hes really like hooly shit, this sucks so fkn Bad, i hate this, i want my mOM!! :'(

riiiiiiiiiip, lmaooooo.

spoiler alert: jersey kyle is dainty and spoiled. he is a champion complainer and if gets a papercut...

you will hear about it.

trust.

conversely, however...lead singer ravenstan,

is very Quiet about pain.

ravenstan knows pain like the back of his hands, he, unfortunately, has had hands on him his entire life and where kyle learned to kick and claw and bite, stan just...internalized and endured all that pain.

he isn't brutal or vicious, he is kind and forgiving, he does not hurt things even if they are hurting him and has been hurt so much that being hurt is as easy as breathing to him…which is horrible because he has asthma and a lot of smoke-related respiratory damage.

but yeah, i actually ( god, i love you ravenstan ) want to scream because where jersey is hard outside and soft inside, raven is soft outside and hard inside and is extremely good at being hurt, ( a child weaned on pain thinks hurt is a comfort, rip ), will take pretty much anything you throw at him and because he literally does not want to inconvenience you...will not even indicate that he's hurt to you.

like he is very passionate about protecting and taking care of other people, but he does not care at all about himself or what happens to him, so if you're hurt, he is on his hands and knees, comforting you, placating you, doing whatever he can to help you...and he might have three bullets in his back, you wouldn't know until he started bleeding through his clothes and fell over. that man is a fucking TANK, guys.

the universe has tried to kill ravenstan...several tries.

( suicide tw, he has also tried a couple times </3 )

no such luck.

it helps that he actually has a surprising amount of off-hand medical knowledge because sharon transferred a lot of it onto him during stan's childhood when she was patching him up because he was a fkn disaster child who tracked mud and blood into her house 25/8, spent three days in a tree and took a hockey puck to the face.

i genuinely think that a large part of why stan was able to survive and endure a lot of the horrors he had was because sharon scolding him in spanish and teaching him stuff literally saved his fucking life.

but yeah, ravenstan is my selfless, accident prone king. he is such a mess, pilots his body so carelessly that it is legitimately frightening. he is constantly covered in bruises he doesn't remember getting, scratches he didn't even notice, does dumb shit and gets hurt and like literally can’t tell he's hurt until he is like abt to pass out.

tldr: rave gets hurt often and has broken a lot of bones.

usually because he's doing stupid, heroic shit.

for example, i am not sure how it got broken, i like to think it was at a concert or an event and he SAVED SOMEONE from something falling or what have you and broke the fuck out of his arm. so his arm was in a cast ( i need it to be hot pink ) and he was super bummed out and felt hella bad because he had a meet and greet and couldn't sign autographs so he just let everyone else...

give him Their autograph instead.

so no one got a personally signed picture of raven of crimson dawn, but much cooler, imo, was that they all personally signed his cast.

my eyes are leaking, lmao. branch in my eyeeee. ;-;

gods...sweet...sweet angel. uGh.

THIS IS SO LONG, BUT I HOPE THIS ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION! idk why i got so invested in this, omg, but thank you for asking and being curious and thank you all for being so lovely and asking me things. it means a lot to me that you care and know i adore you.

Goddammit.

Look. I love modern medicine. It's great.

But can Albuterol please fucking not with the shakes. I am trying to figure out whether the whole mystery breathing issue is getting worse thank you and the anxiety-adjacent side effects are not helping knock it off.

[killerandhealerqueen]

How I know it's spring/getting closer to summer...I'm coughing like I've Yu Tangchun's throat disease

[caffeinatedopossum]

So apparently, for years, a handful of my spontaneous "panic attacks" have actually been from asthma. O_O I was panicking because I COULDN'T FUCKING BREATHE

"It's just anxiety" I hate you + hammer car explosion + dungeon for 2 thousand years + ratio

"Just breathe" well NO FUCKING WONDER that wasn't working for me!! My dumbass thought I was just doing something wrong but I literally physically could not breathe

[thethingything]

our mum's boyfriend has been telling her to avoid going to a doctor about her asthma symptoms for as long as possible because "once you start on an inhaler it's really hard to stop taking it again because you can't breathe when you stop taking it" and like??? yeah no shit, if you stop taking the meds that help you breathe you're gonna start struggling to breathe
