#and the next appointment is in December

Sometimes things go so wrong for no reason and they can't be explained or faulted but you still feel guilt and pain and grief and I think it's just another way to process the lack of control we have.
#ive been waiting a year and 2 months for my top surgery consult#and today#everything worked against me#i left early i checked traffic i double-checked the gps#and i still missed the appointment#and i was so happy driving there i was in such a great move#and then everything went wrong#and i got there and the nurse said you just have to rebook it#and the next appointment is in December#i dont know how to explain how crushing today was and i dont know how to deal with it except for just moving on#becauase there is nothing i can do#and i just want to blame myself and hurt myself and kill myself all at once#but what good would that do....#cest la vie#have a cry dust myself and get back up#i dont know anymore#i dont know why it has to be like this

has it really been only one week since my last therapy session. feels like it's been a month
#in that time i have a) learned i will be kocked out of my apartment in less than three months time#b) come out to my sister with moxed results#c) realized that i need to look into buying an apartment instead of just renting somewhere new bc it actually might be more feasible#learned so much about the whole process. spent so many hours googling and looking for places and learning abt it all#oh and i had a research article/book chapter get published somewhere in all this#anyway this week i have four apartment viewings two financial advisor appointments and a realtor appointment. also work#at least I'm off work from next week until december#I'm dyig scoob

Halloween costume hint:
(The stitch marker and the word that describes this colour-pattern of yarn [or fabric] are 2 more hints.)
#i make no guarantees of finishing in time for halloween tho im going thru a lot rn#i DID finish a second pair of Scream yarn socks today tho!!#i just wanted to give my fingers a little break from knitting socks but i have other halloween sock yarn i plan on working on#(november is halloween 2 for me)#but yeah i saw a sample of yarn using this type of seamless cast on (provisional cast on / circular tubular cast on) last night...#...while half asleep and was immediately like Oh. I HAVE to do that costume idea now.#i flubbed the crochet part bc the way i did it made the stitches twisted when i knitted it...#...and i had to pull out every crochet stitch one by one. lol. but at least i know for next time how i gotta crochet it to be open stitches#also i knit backwards (mirrored) so i was surprised i managed to figure out the tutorial on the first go...#...bc the person filming described their actions instead of just showing it so i only needed to listen. it makes a world of difference to me#anyway. now that i got that started i have been shaking in pain all day i gotta try n shower before it gets too late#apparently my new back xrays show that my back does have an issue. but not on the spot thats hurting lmao.#so i get to do an mri and see a back specialist ughhh. also the pharmacy is refusing to fill pain meds for me. it sucks.#AND i finally got a physical therapy appointment.... for the middle of december.... guys i injured my back and#....have been trying to get in to PT since fucking MAY. its OCTOBER.#like fuck my life man i can barely fucking walk. i can barely take care of myself. the pain had been SO bad since i recently reinjured it#so yeah i gotta try n shower before i pass out from the pain.#knitting#Cori.exe#Image.exe#fiber art#horror#halloween#also like this yarn is the closest i could get to colour accuracy that i have in my yarn bin and i only have 1 skein of it which is perfect#bc it means i get to use up probably the whole skein and it makes a difference in the amount of yarn i need to use out of my bin lol#especially bc what other use am i ever going to get out of one skein of yarn? nothing but socks take one skein.#my worst yarn habit is seeing a cool yarn and then buying just one or two skeins. like thats fine for a hat or scarf...#...but i need to learn to knit and crochet more things. id like to make a sweater at least once in my life lmao#((sweater yarn gets so expensive tho bc u need so much. and we're back to me wanting to reduce my yarn stash))#personal

Huge vent
Yesterday was the welcome thing for the beginning of the school year, only from 15h to 16h30. Still managed to end up late. Nothing to do either, just sit there and listen to the explanation of how the year is gonna go. Still came back home EXHAUSTED
First day of school and I'm already an hour late
They also said that if we come late, the teachers aren't gonna let us in
So now I'm just frozen, sitting on my chair after finally managing to prepare, with no idea on if i waste the little energy i have going to school in the heat only to not be let in
But they also said they'd do that last year, and they never did. So maybe they're not doing it again and I'm just wasting time when they would let me in
I don't know and that's the problem
And even if i can, the mental image of everyone in class turning to stare at me and judge while i enter in the middle of the class, because i spent more than half of last year being hours late if not straight up missing "for no reason" is too much (because this country has dog shit psychology knowledge that has been studied to be around 50 years late, and they know nothing about invisible disabilities. Not like I'd ever even tell them. This class sucks in all minorities fronts)
But also I'm literally already thousands of euros in debt for this damn school and every class i miss is money wasted
I don't know what to do
#sent a message to admins to ask about the disability help i can get#think I'm gonna wait until afternoon class to go#and use that time to do all the other medical calls i need to do#hope we can talk about my help soon and i can explain the causes for why I'm late in the morning and why I'm struggling so much#and they'll actually listen#negative#HB rambles#i did brush my teeth! that's a huge win. and took a shower yesterday despite already taking one sunday#which thinking about it now might be the reason I'm already struggling so hard this morning.....#having to suddenly live with low spoons sucks. especially when you have huge memory issues#i keep acting like how i used to. just normal. and then being baffled when something as small as a shower wipes out all my energy for the#next day#i hate this. i hate this so much. i want to go back to being able to do multiple things a day and not ending up drained#i had 3 months of summer break. and only played animal crossing new leaf for like- 3 afternoons#never touched any other game. or my dsi. or my wii. or any of my books#played buckshot roulette for a few hours once#couldn't keep going. it's fun. but because it's a strategy game. it DRAINED my mental energy#i planned to fucking start sports and learn how to sew and crochet and maybe even skateboard#and instead i couldn't even draw a simple BASIC art piece without taking multiple days of only 3 hours sessions#an entire year of doctor appointments. and i still have NOTHING. no answer or help#my last hope is a mental exam in December....#if we don't find the answer then.....I'm probably gonna have to survive like this for the rest of my life#and i definitely can't get or keep a job in this state#vent#chronic fatigue#autistic burnout#probably#but it's not like i can get help for that. when the cure is YEARS of COMPLETE rest#no job or responsabilities whatsoever. yeah right. only way to get that would be to get sent to a retirement home or something#hate this

they should make a life where you don't have appointments, work, school and scheduled events every single day for months on end
#i just wanna spend like 2 full days rotting in bed is that too much to ask#december i'm going on a vacation with family + gf and we're trying to schedule a lunch/dinner so that we can go over the itinerery#and other stuff like my gf is diabetic so she's going to tell everyone the procedures in case of an emergency etc#and the soonest i'm available for that is oct 20th like bruh#every week day i've got classes 7:30-11:50 work 13:00-17:00 and then gym therapy or futsal practice at night#oh and sometimes the professor that i'm the student assistant (? monitor in pt) for wants me to go to her night classes#and then on weekends i've got futsal practice sat morning usually a match either saturday or sunday legal advice clinic 4x a semester#and then birthdays friend group meetups (with ppl i haven't properly seen in a WHILE so i don't wanna bail) family stuff or gf's family stu#oh and i take care of the finances of our futsal team so there's that as well#and then when i'm free i spend my time with my love (who i mostly see on either day of the weekend and sometimes for dinner on weekdays)#those are my favorite “appointments” i love spending time with her so much but even though we have quite a few staying in dates we also#pretty frequently go out to cafes restaurants parks meet up with mutual friends etc#so like... no bed rotting ever adfdsal#honestly i am not THAT busy compared to some ppl that i know#like i work from home most days of the week commute only 20 min to college am not a part of any study group etc etc#but man... that vyvense sure is working cause i do not think i would be able to do what i do now when my adhd was unmedicated#also i'm thinking of maybe getting a new internship next year cause even though i love my current one it's in public law which atm#is the field i'm thinking of getting into after school but getting into private law in brazil with only public law uni experience is#incredibly difficult. so i wanna be 100% sure i actually want public law. which means experiencing private law.#which means a private law internship#so i'm wondering how the fuck imma be able to pull that off next year#at least it pays much more than my current one! like probably double!#but honestly even with all the shit that i do and wishing i had more time for myself i've actually been so happy lately#i'm learning more at uni than i used to be able to i do pretty well at my internship i've got wonderful friends both old and new#my family is well and we get along like always i switched positions in futsal and am doing suprisingly good as a goalkeeper#and i'm in my first ever relationship. it's been almost 8 months till we made it official and it blows me away how good it's been#like we haven't faught once. disagreed on a couple things sure. but not a single fight and tbh even disagreements are very rare#idk we communicate and give each other grace and i just feel so loved. she knows me so well. i love her so so so so much.#like man just this saturday we were having an early dinner at a bakery. she stopped what she was saying and just stared at me smiling#and like i couldn't hold eye contact. cause she's so so fucking beautiful and she was looking at me with so much love and i had to look awa

Last Wednesday I went to the rheumatologist. Turns out my blood work was negative for lupus, but they forgot to call and tell me that 🫠 But that explains why I still have joint pain. Anyway, we both agreed that while I still have pain, it is pain is improving, and she was about to release me from regular appointments, just told me to call if I have severe pain come back. But she did ask me to run down to the lab before I left and give two vials of blood so she could test me for RA, just to make sure we had ruled out everything. So I did, even though neither of us thought anything would come of it.
She called me back one day later to tell me that my blood tested high for rheumatoid factor and high CCP. So, very positive for rheumatoid arthritis. Now we have to change my biologic (GI switched me from Humira to Stelara in April bc Stelara only targets the intestines and at the time, we thought the joint pain was a Humira side effect, then a lupus symptom) and I get to juggle two specialists and autoimmune diseases for the foreseeable future.
I took a couple days to be sad and mad, but I feel okay now. Even though this feels like a few steps back, it is still progress. I’m just so sick of the cyclical nature of all this, the try something new and then and wait for half a year to see if the effects of it give me any new issues or if my body develops any new diseases or if it actually helps me. I think I’m saddest because I thought things were finally going to stabilize and be normal for awhile. I know they will eventually, I’m just sick of the process.
#also I have to miss ender’s Christmas concert at preschool bc of my GI appointment#it’s in December and his next available opening for patients isn’t until the end of may#I hate it here I hate paying so much money for so little face time with doctors#and never when it is convenient to me just here’s your appointment time make it work#I cried on the phone to the receptionist yesterday lol

Oh fuck. Today marks 6 whole years since The Bullshit started. I mean. It'd Started well before then but that's when it officially started yknow. And what cosmic irony is it that a whole new bullshit that's basically just a worse version of the original bullshit is starting now too
#my autoimmune disorder fully kicked in on Feb 18. 2018 lmao#and like. I know it all started before then bcuz even that previous April I had what I realized later was a flare#and the December before that was when I had strep that spread to my ears and almost definitely my brain bcuz my doctor just didn't give#us the strep test results for a whole week#so shit was definitely going wrong before then but it didn't actually Do anything until that day yknow#we were in Seattle to see Hamilton live and I could barely even see the stage because the world was spinning too much and I was so nauseous#I spendt the entire next week in bed and barely ate anything. missed a ton of school. and it just never got better#and now here we are. 6 years later. and I've spent almost the whole week in bed and barely eaten. waiting on specialist appointments again.#it's like nothings fucking changed#last year I was almost over even remembering the day because I'd mostly stopped grieving the loss of the life I used to have#and now it's even worse than before.#idk man it's just. it's a lot yknow#armchair speaks#actually disabled#physically disabled

Hi Alex, I am sorry your mother is refusing to listen to you. I know there's nothing I can do to help, but I just wanted to reach out and reassure you that what your asking from them shouldn't be this big of a struggle for them, and it's shameful they can't find it in their hearts to show you basic respect and compassion. I can understand why blocking them may seem like too much, but you're not asking too much from them, either... 🩷 I hope the remainder of 2023 is kind to you. Be well.
thank you 🩷🩷. it does help to hear it from someone else. it's still unfortunately very easy for me to get caught up in the guilt tripping, no matter how many times I tell myself that asking someone to call you by your name is the most basic thing you can do. thank you for taking the time to send this 🩷🩷
#luckily I'm smart and i figured i wouldn't be able to make it through the holidays unscathed so i made an appointment with my therapist for#next week#I'm so done with december tho#alex txt

Aggressively promoting the bar where I work on all my social media
#i'm reposting the job ad everywhere on instagram and facebook etc etc we're not nearly enough people#next month is fucking packed for me i only got 11 days in november without any kind of appointment#i agreed to take over five shifts instead of the usual three bc i don't have a regular job yet so i can still do that to help#(and also hoping i can get some more free weekends in december so i can go christmas market hopping)#but i'll def attend the st nicholas day party which will double as my birthday party since i don't have anyone else i'd wanna spend it with#anyway pls before covid they were 12 people and now we're 6 😭😭 if you exclude the boss' mom who usually only works wednesday and thursday#sometimes the boss himself works behind the counter too but only if he's not the dj or if there's no concert#sometimes even his dad or wife and one of my coworkers can't work much rn either bc her son has cancer and she can't plan too far in advance#for anyone who doesn't live here i'm still promoting it for cheap international glam concerts. paunchy cats. you gotta have been there#mel talks

you never posted what i sent in about stigma and doctors and healing. it was kinda long but i feel rejected.
There are currently 110 asks in the ask box and I have (and have had for a little while) very little energy due to personal events in my life, which makes it difficult to draw up the spoons to manage the blog as I otherwise would. The queue is also (currently) at 8 posts per day and is 87 posts long as of right now. Some of those asks are from late December of 2022.
A lot of those asks are still there because they're in large paragraphs, which we struggle to read through and often save for later in favor of adding shorter asks which we can (more) easily read to the queue where possible to keep it running. (note this is not us saying to never send large paragraphs, this is us saying that the longer the ask, the longer it may take for us to be able to queue it up)
It's also possible that it was never received. There have been many occasions where an ask has reportedly been sent, but we never received it.
If an ask is sent but not posted, or if an ask was sent during late December or January and was never posted, there is a very high chance that it's not because we have anything personal against the ask/er or because we didn't like it; rather, the most likely reason is that we simply A) have not had the energy, B) weren't able to read it at the time it was sent because long paragraphs, or C) never received it in the first place because Tumblr is a webbed site.
#not cluster b culture#Mod Reef#anonymous#not queued#we (Mod Reef) are currently the only ones managing the blog right now since (as far as we are aware) the other mod is taking a break--#--from Tumblr#(for very understandable reasons)#we also have a lot of things going on outside of the blog and often cannot get to asks as soon as they're sent#or even a month after they've been sent (as has happened with the asks sent in November; December; and part of January)#for example: we had two doctor's appointments within four days of each other this week and are having another two on the 23rd and 24th#and then a third on the 6th of next month#as a result we have not had the energy or mental wherewithal to manage our non-personal blogs#specifically this blog and a daily fandom art blog

today i saw so many instagram stories of people going to the public health manifestation 😭. maybe there is hope after all
#for those who don't know#i don't know how it's in the rest of the country but in madrid the current conservative government has been privatizing non-stop health#centers#while closing public health centers and understaffing hospitals#for instance in my town of 60k+ inhabitants there is no longer an urgencies center#if we need to go to the doctor's for an emergency at 3 am we would have to drive to the next town (or pay for private health care)#i also asked for a doctor's appointment last august and i have it on mid-december#same for a surgery i had last year#i had to be changed hospitals to accelerate the process and with all i still had to wait nearly 6 months#i thought of going to the manifestation but i had too much uni stuff to do#i'm glad so many people mobilized

In one month I had two doctors appointments and they both cancelled the day of the appointment.
#first one was for my therapy and it was supposed to be in December#now it's next week#mind you it gives more time to do my tests the night before#and today was supposed to be for my back#and that's a bit more important right now#im not dying#but like if he keeps cancelling it it's gonna get worse#how the fuck are we supposed to not go to the emergency department when you can't have a doctor appointment in less than a fucking month
