Should make a pain killer that actually kills (or even touches) pain
#not that I have access to ultra hardcore stuff#but even when I had... pretty sure it was vicodine for my wisdom teeth; it didn't do a thing for me#cbd based stuff seems like it maybe helps; certainly does more than nsaids which do nothing for pain (great for inflammation though)#but I just... I'd really like something that actually makes my muscles and joints feel like... good; unpain#I'm sure it would be classified as addictive whatever it was but like... fuck man... I just want to not hurt#I can't tell if I have chronic pain cause... I kinda forget to pay attention when I'm hurting a lot of the time#I'll just... kinda realize I've been hurting bad all day and just not really focusing on it#and I also don't know how often it happens; if it's once a day or once a month or what; not great at noting that stuff down#but man... I don't even like most meds; so many meds either do nothing for me or make me feel like shit#like... benedril? however you spell it; someone gave me some once said it would help me sleep... help me be awake feeling like ass more lik#but like... love to see if muscle relaxants actually like... relaxed my muscles; but you get it; you get why I'll never be able to try it#though honestly I think therapeutic massage might help me a lot#but my doc says that really only gets authorized by physical therapy and... well for me physical therapy is useless#cause I forget to do the exercise; like it's me failing a physical therapy; not a probably with physical therapy#if I ever think I can keep up with it I'd love to try physical therapy for my back again; but I don't want to waste all my chances at it#not when... I descriptively didn't do it when I was in it before; I'd never remember to do any of the exercises#anyway; bonus story from when I was in urgent care when the infection came back (that's still never been solved)#I tell the doc 'last time it tore open a drainage hole it was the worst pain I've ever felt'... cause it was#I said 'I'll need something a bit stronger than an nsaid cause the nsaid did nothing but cut inflammation last time'#she's like 'don't worry; I got you'... wanna guess what she gave me? a newer nsaid#it didn't do shit; I was just lucky and it wasn't as painful... maybe the old drainage hole tore open easier this time#but I didn't even take the nsaid she prescribed; so I'm gonna say it wasn't that med helping#like I get it; you don't want to give opioids... and would it shock you to know that wasn't what I was looking for either#there's gotta be something between nsaid and fentynol man#...well... maybe the cdb has almost got my muscles... hurting less at least; only taken all this time I've been writing#they still hurt for sure... I don't know... get tired; you know?#mm tag so i can find things later

will return to posting on aro culture is. medical bullshit continues unfortunately :(
would be super neat if my body was functional, but alas... if it is not one thing, it is another. it is also usually more than one thing. my body is like an apartment complex that looks alright on the outside, but is hot garbage when you look inside. you're not just gonna find one problem.

MCYT ; wisdom teeth removal
includes ; tommyinnit, ranboo, badlinu & maxggs
warnings ; language, substances (laughing gas), me not really knowing how this works ig
masterlist
Tumblr media
TOMMYINNIT
absolutely cackling everytime you speak
"I wanna listen to gay music, tom" you whine
"what is gay music?!??!"
"CHAPPELL ROAN"
"WHY ARE WE YELLING"
offers to get you yogurt on the way home
"pretzel"
"i know the soft pretzel addiction is tough, but they're too hard for you right now"
"what the fuck, mate"
you proceed to only say mate for an hour cause it doesn't sound like a real word anymore
pain in the ass
good for content!
his first video to reach 1m views in months LMAOOOO
RANBOO
has to get the whole crew in to help you
like whole crew as in harry, molly, tommy, and jack
"stand up in 1, 2, 3-"
you crash immediately to the floor
"i don't think that's standing"
"i don't think so either, harry"
literally loads you up on milkshakes
feels so bad about how you're complaining about being uncomfortable but he can't do anything so... suffer ig
he's just nodding along to the dumb shit you say
very embarrassing to be on the public bus though
everyone's quietly giggling trying to not laugh up a storm as you mumble about harry and something about vapes
you might as well be on crack
FREDDIE BADLINU
literally like teaching an infant how to walk
baby gloves are on, asks the dental surgeon what he needs to do and writes it down
constant hugs cause you ask for them every 3 seconds
actually laughing like hell when you say something weird/dumb
just hands you your earbuds and let's you play music if it helps the woozyness at all
"listen to megan with meeeee"
"okay, well I need an earbud, pal"
"oh, yeah"
takes a picture of your swollen mouth while you're taking a nap on his shoulder on the bus
"I'm convinced this is what raising a toddler is like"
"I'm a cool toddler though, right? cause I'm awesome and cool and awesome, right?"
"yup"
MAXGGS
you actually confuse him for tubbo and it was over (he was streaming w tubbo for tubbothon)
"okay, bye. get home safe-"
"mAx-" voice cracks are insane what
was worried that they performed surgery on your vocal chords while they had you out
nah your jaw wasn't used to being so strained for so long
loads you up with milkshakes and ice cream
you're mostly only getting around on his back cause you're too woozy
like taking care of a drunk person
"i have to change the towel-"
"what towel?"
"the towel in your mouth, y/n"
"THERES A TOWEL IN MY MOUTH?'
he's literally never laughed so much in his life
made a joke about being pro getting high on laughing gas
"whatever makes you happy, gang"

The filling that fell out almost a year ago has finally come back to haunt me... could hardly sleep last night cus my face hurt so bad. TWO naproxen didn't even touch the pain. (Tho that's nothing new tbh). Don't want a long aas post clogging up anyone's dash, so rest is under the cut.
Also didn't proof read this super well cus now that I'm not as sore I'm getting sleepy cus I didn't sleep much last night so if it's a Lil choppy I apologize lol.
Over the years, I noticed pain meds never really worked, so I didn't bother with them. The option was to take the max dose, or potentially more to get relief, but doing that consistently was just not something i was down for. But at the dentist for the filling that fell out more recently, dude dipped into multuple syringes of the lidocaine, and had to numb the nerve in the hinge of my jaw for me to not feel him digging around in my face.
Found the same when I had an iud inserted, took meds before as instructed, even brought a joint lmao. As well as going for the discomfort of that giant ass 10g needle stabbed into my cervix, and it did NOTHING... I've got a fairly high pain tolerance, but I stg I had a better time when I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed at once... and those were ALL infected, two were impacted, and when treating said infection, I had a freak reaction to the amoxicillin for the first time in my life... go me...
ANYWAY, shit I tried off Google and how it worked...
Sensitivity toothpaste rubbed into my gums/teeth helped a very short time. Sent the bf for orajel the next morning n honestly it worked about as well as the toothpaste, just for longer.
Also strongly mint?? Like specifically just peppermint antacid in my mouth helped rhe ache?? Apparently it's a thing lol. Honestly was just looking for a distraction from the ache n felt like the minty feeling might help.
Salt water rinse helped a little too. Did a rinse but a VERY gentle swish, better to puff out your cheeks and roll your head back n forth. Kinda burns but it will help kill any infection as long as it's minor.
Had some tea earlier on with sage, lemon balm, clove and rosemary. As all of them have geberal anti inflammatory or anti bacterial properties. Weirdly another tip I found was just a damp black tea bag placed against the affected area, actually felt FANTASTIC but the downside was it made my spit SUPER bitter if I swallowed it, so my option was wanting to gag at how gross it was, or be in pain... and obviously couldn't sleep with it in there cus that would be dangerous. Might try just drinking some black tea or brewing the black tea with the other herbs for some extra kick, no honey sadly but I'll have to deal with the bitterness.
Acetaminophen worked a lot better than the naproxen here. Was told by a Dr for a different pain I was in, that I COULD take them together tho (as in one of each), but since the naproxen didn't seem to do fuck all I'm gonna just do 2x extra strength Acetaminophen. Which also isn't ideal long term, but I CANNOT sleep with the pain I'm in so for a temporary situation I'm just gonna have to drink extra water or sum...
Other option is the T3 I had leftover after my tooth removal, had some ibuprofen too but left those when I moved away from fam. I'd rather take an extra Tylenol than the codeine tbh. Just feels a Lil less harsh on the system.
Fingers crossed the boyfriends work insurance goes thru so I can get this delt with... otherwise I might have to just have to be in pain to give my organs a break from all the drugs 🙃 gonna try my netti pot to hopefully clear any gunk out my sinuses as the ear on that side is a Lil plugged too (tip. Take a deep breath, close mouth, plug nose, and swallow. Works WAY better than plugging your nose and blowing).

UPDATE: I mention a bacteria thing and teeth hurting down below but this is an old post and I'm all recovered now ♡
y'all I had planned to go back to posting my fics regularly but so much has happened lately, including me going to our public 24/7 emergency care (don't know how to describe it better in Eng but we call it UPA) last night and getting scared (both me and my parents lol) but thankfully it was nothing major, just some bacteria or something similar I got from food and the doctor just prescribed me some pills and I was back home in no time. I feel better already ahahah also, my wisdom teeth are SCREAMING in pain lol but it's not as bad as it could be, at least not for me as I have a real high pain tolerance bc of fibro 👁👄👁 anyways... I'm really busy still, just focusing on living life, having time to relax, taking care of my cat, focusing on my relationship, spending some quality time with my family and friends and working on my new small business. So, idk when I'll be back to some kind of routine when it comes to posting my works but I just wanted to give y'all a little update. I'm enjoying my break, tho ♡ even with some challenges along the way ahahha hope u guys are doing good 💌 and thank you SO much for all the recent likes and comments in my writings. Makes me incredibly happy and proud of the effort I put into my art. <3

Elaboration on why you think you already know why your face is hurting? If you're open to it
Bad teeth, horrid teeth, I kind of ramble. Heads up I briefly mention mental health stuff and child neglect but I dont really dive deep into it but you guys know I like to add warnings just in case
Saying this now, admin does not know any terms when it comes to tooth stuff or dentist stuff so take descriptions with a grain of salt + when future plans for my care were discussed it was while I was still all fuzzed out on the gas they give people sometimes <\3
Very likely I'll probably delete this since this is a bit of a touchy thing
Got my dad's small mouth/jaw and my moms fucky teeth- idk what or if theres something running genetically in the family but the afabs on my moms side have teeth there are very susceptible to rot. At one point it was so tight in my mouth that a tooth just. Started cracking?? Said tooth happened to also have a cavity soooooooo.... and it was one of my front teeth too so triple bummer...
Add in the fact that when the cavity first formed my parents werent. Really around.. so uh.. no dentist visit for YEARS until the tooth cracked further, brushing can only do so much in this case + horrid mental health made self care hard. Bed rotting is very real and its horrible- will get onto just how bad the tooth was in a sec
Didnt get taken to the dentist til I was 17 when the crack worsened. First trip had to get a tooth pulled because I had two and a half teeth crammed in one space. Baby tooth never came out. Now one of my adult teeth rests mostly under my tongue. But the tooth removal DID relieve some of the pressure on my lower jaw!! Yay!! Theres still a gap but it's a little smaller than it was before. Dreading my wisdom teeth
Anyways back to the fucked up cracked tooth. Details are fuzzed since this was about 2ish years ago and I was on that funky gas because anxiety + literally the first time I could consciously remember going to the dentist + body sometimes jerks so... yeah!
Anyways
Apparantly the nerve in that cracked front tooth was nearly exposed. Like there was just a thin layer of... tooth.. stuff.. in the way, according to the dentist you could easily see the nerve behind it?? How I wasn't in constant pain was beyond me because jesus fucking christ
Dental plan! Sealed the tooth/glued it together because the main reason I got taken to the dentist to get the damaged assessed was! Graduation photos were coming up very fast and my mom didnt want me to have a cracked fucked tooth in my photos, but she also didnt want to do anything that could make my face swollen
So cue a "we're gonna come up with a plan later, for now we're going to metaphorically and literally hold this tooth together with glue until it cant keep it together anymore!" Soooooo
Here we are!
Reason I think my tooth is the problem is because it's on the same side right above that tooth, though now that I sit here aggressively breathing in through my nose to try to pin point WHERE it hurts (because unfortunately its ine of those "general areas but not exact" things), it feels too high up to be the tooth.. I mean I'm not gonna rule it out because I know bodies are weird but
Yk
Idk I'll probably bring it up to my mom, I'm kind of on edge since I know mouth tooth stuff can escalate quick and cause some NASTY complications
At least my actual teeth dont hurt at all??
If not the teeth its likely a sinus infection, I have been having a fucked up nose (running and stuffy) though I've mostly been attributing that to the weather... shrugs.. guess we'll just have to see!

TLDR: no rent money, last time i was late w rent by 2 days i got an eviction notice, my cat needs urgent medical help, i’m out of work due to severely debilitating pain. extremely disabled, indigenous lesbian desperately in need of help. also a paragraph about how much i am sorry
my friend said, “nah bestie asking for help isn't shameful in any way. there's strength in knowing what you need,” but i still feel like crud
i am literally sobbing as i post this because i just feel... i feel like a loser, i feel worthless, i feel so many emotions right now because i’m so terrified and tired of asking for help. i’m terrified of people just being sick of me because i’ve needed help before, and i don’t know. i would never shame anyone else for needing help, and i know realistically it shouldn’t be shameful, but i personally feel shame because i feel like a failure. i feel like a loser/worthless/failure because of something that’s completely out of my control, and yet, the feeling is still there. i’m exhausted. i’m exhausted from being in this stressful, urgent situation. so i’m sorry. i’m so sorry i’m asking for help again, i’m so sorry. i feel horrible, i really do. i feel guilty for needing help. i feel sick. i’m trying not to, and i’m trying not to cry, but i’m typing this through very blurry vision rn.
as i’ve mentioned on my blog, i’ve been out of work due to severe chronic pain. i was able to work through my other disabilities. narcolepsy, my shitty mental health auDHD/bipolar, etc. but this chronic pain has been completely fucking debilitating. medical fatphobia tw incoming: i saw a neurosurgeon today and they won’t give me surgery because of “my weight being a risk for post-op complications, such as stitch rips”, so i just have to deal with the pain until i can lose enough they’ll operate on me ????????? i dont know what the hell i’m going to do........... this sucks so fucking bad i just wanna go back to work i hate living like this
my fiance needs her wisdom teeth removed really badly, but we had to cancel her appointment because the money we saved for it had to go to our cat.
possible animal death tw: my cat has bladder stones now................................. last time he had stones it costed almost $1k in surgery. the bladder stones will kill him if not treated, because toxins build up in the body and if he cannot pee... just sldfksldfkj i don’t wanna talk about it. he’s miserable. 
Tumblr media
i’m going to have to dip in to our rent money, which was actually our tax money because i’ve not been working so tax money was our saving grace this past month, to keep taking him to the vet. however, last time i was late on rent just 2 days, they gave us an eviction notice and only 7 days to come up with rent. that was a fucking disaster. so i’m TERRIFIED!!!!!!!
i need help so bad. with just surviving being out of work, and now my cat... i’m super annoyed because i was desperate to get my baby sister a doll for her birthday but there’s no way that’s happening now. 
anyway, i’m sorry. i’m sorry for everything. i’m sorry i need help. i’m sorry if you’re sick of seeing me on your dash for like the 3rd time needing major help.
i have set up a gofundme here https://www.gofundme.com/f/uwkhj-help-my-family-survive?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1
however, if you’d prefer to donate directly, due to the fact that gofundme takes a big portion of funds, here are my accts:
pypl: [email protected], v: @oraclelauren (3177), ca: $selinaaakyle
every donation is going to be greatly appreciated, and i promise to pay the kindness forward in every little way that i can
please don’t put yourself out to help, but if you can help, my heart goes out to you with forever gratefulness

how would Tony (young and regular/older Tony) react if you need to have your wisdom tooth removed and he's gotta take care of you? like, calm you down before the surgery, accompany you to the orthodontist, take care of you during post-op? and you're all sensitive and upset and feeling shitty and miserable :(
It’s been 8 years since I got all of my wisdom teeth removed but that shit was awful and sometimes the scars flare up and hurt to this day 😭 also my fav story to tell is that after my surgery I was so fucked up on those pain meds for a while (mine took a lot longer to heal than normal and hurt so bad so I took the hard stuff longer than most people lmao), and I played Mass Effect 1 all day every day, and completed it like three or four times over the course of a week 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 my two friends got theirs removed during the same summer as me, and there’s went so smoothly??? Like one had no paid after day 2 or 3 and was eating like normal on day 5, and my other friend took a while before chewing felt more normal but she said her pain wasn’t bad after the first day??? And I literally felt like I was dying for almost two weeks 😭
Young!Tony might have gotten his removed too! 3 or 4 years ago probably, but he’s been through it! He’ll drive you there and back, but on the way he’s probably not the best at comforting you 🤧 He’ll tell you it’s not that bad, and then proceed to tell you all about how he woke up mid-surgery 😭 he thinks it’s kinda funny, but it’s not when you’re about to be in that position :( If you’re anything like how I was after mine, instead of being loopy and stumbly afterward, you walk to the car (mostly) on your own (only stumbling a little bit) after being very grumpy and mean to both Tony and the doctor 😃👍 who thankfully think it’s funny, and Tony only annoys you further when you’re staring through the window with an angry glare and he’s busy asking you how you feel or if you remember anything. Yeah, you feel like shit! No wonder you’re so grumpy! He tries to stay quiet for the rest of the ride 😔 but he’ll put on your favorite songs :D He also made sure to put a towel on your lap maybe or maybe not after Maria advised him to beforehand…
If you don’t already live together, he’ll pretty much try to live in your house for the week even though your parents might be right there to also take care of you 🥺😅 buuuut blood makes him a little squeamish, so helping you replacing those first cottons balls might be a little bit of a hassle, meaning: he’ll be wearing gloves and will be visibly disgusted 😭 but you’re too out of it to notice anyway! The first day, you’re probably doing a lot of sleeping :( but he’ll sleep with you :D propped up with you on some pillow and just watches every movie you own! You probably can’t talk really good either that first day or two, which sucks because all Tony does it talk 😩 well, maybe it’s not so bad then? You also won’t be alone in having to eat things like Jello and pudding and mashed potatoes, because he’ll probably eat them too 😋 It kinda gives him an excuse to only eat vanilla pudding all day 😅 He can’t really help you feel any better besides being surprisingly on time for any medication, and while he promises to take you to your favorite restaurant as soon as you think you can eat real food (which is hopefully after the first week unless you’re like me, then it takes almost two 🙃), but that might kinda make it worse because it gets real boring only eating the few soft foods on that list 😭 And it’s frustrating honestly. Don’t feel bad about randomly crying when he brings you a cup of jello 😔 He’ll be like “wait, was that the wrong thing, I’m sorry 😰” and then he has to sit through your mini rant about being tired of feeling awful 😞 and there’s nothing he can do so he also feels awful 😞 But, at least you kinda have an excuse to sit in bed all week and watch movies or play games? Each day will feel a little better :)
Now older Tony, he’s been through a few surgeries, though it’s been years since this particular one. You can rest assured, at least, that you’ll have only the best doctors and best medical advice and stuff? Nah, it’s still stressful ^^;; Tony’s been through lots of surgeries, and he’ll assure you this is one of the easier and most routine ones! It’ll go fine! You won’t be able to eat normally for at least 5 or so days, so he’ll be sure to take you wherever you want to go the day or two before, too 😘 If you’re super freaked out, he’ll try his best leading up to it to avoid any mention of it unless necessary tbh. He’s suddenly around much more, trying to butt it on daily routines and work, chores or cooking, asking you’re opinion of blueprints or about vacation plans. But it’s pretty unavoidable when he’s driving you there :( He’ll ((technically)) be with you the entire time! He’ll be there when it’s done! It may not feel like it in the moment, but he was right when he said you’d literally be out of there within five minutes! Well, from your point of view anyway. You’re probably a little wobbly on your feet, and hopefully not trying to wriggle out of his guiding grip on your shoulders 😅 And sorry to tell you, while you won’t film it, he’ll purposefully be trying to get you to say ridiculous things and asking you all kinds of ridiculous questions 😔 And tell you all about as soon as you’re feeling better!
He made sure to buy all your favorite yogurts and he’ll even make some soups! Luckily he’s seen plenty of blood and had plenty of surgeries, so blood doesn’t bother him and he doesn’t mind having to help you clean up. And though you’re on bedrest for a few days (the surgery may just be in the mouth, but dental pain really takes out all your energy 😭), at least that means he (finally) has to take a break from work to spend all day with you 😁 though, it’d be better for both of you if you weren’t in pain and so over it :( He feels really bad that there’s not much he can do to help you feel better :( You may get a little snappy with him because you feel so bad, and he tries his best not to let it get him down 😔 But he’s still persistent in trying to find way to keep you entertained and keep your mind off of it (sorta). Puzzles, video games, napping as best he can with you- whatever helps! And when you start complaining about having to eat the same stuff all day, he’ll promise to pick up whatever you want as soon as you can eat better!
And either way, the biggest challenge for him is trying not to instinctively kiss your cheek before bed when your laying next to him 😭 those first few days everything hurts, and he hardly knows what a gentle peck is, so he’ll have to remember to swoop to your shoulder of top of your head that first week 😅

Diary 2/26: life update cause it's been 6 months at least
Hi 👋🏼, It's been a long time, about 6 months about. I'm 23 now
I have a lot of up and downs and haven't felt like writing, and my main creative outlet has been TikTok because to be honest, I feel less alone when I can see that people saw my video, and maybe ever gave it a like or comment
I guess I'll talk a bit about the last 6 months, I work at a craft store now, quit my old horrible job that mistreated me constantly, got COVID soon after quitting the old job, went and saw a medium sized artist I like in concert, second ever concert, her name is Tessa Violet, dragged my bff with me cause we planned it for her to come down and visit me during Spring Break.
I also confessed to my crush, they said they like me too and have just as long as I have but she thought me flirting was pitty compliments cause ADHD runs through both of us lol, it's been moving really slowly cause things keep happening to her, the universe is just slapping her weekly bro.
I don't hate my job at the craft store, but I miss doing a version of my chosen career as a baker/cake decorator, really wish that place wasn't so toxic and that I had a car already.
I'm still trying to get a car, it took me 3 months to get a new job after quitting my old one, the COVID thing was a month of that but also just this job market sucks, origami current job was seasonal, but I have really good numbers on the register and I'm good at the other parts like stalking and sorting and fixing things on the shelfs so I got kept on. I make sure not to give a ADHD 100% anymore, it killed me at my old job and whenever I only had a normal person's 100% they acted like I was failing when I was just doing a normal amount instead of a crazy amount, so I learned not to grind myself to the bone.
I can't remember if I've mentioned this, probably not tho, I go to a weekly crochet club for months now, it's all older ladies and me but it's better than nothing with how I don't really have friends other than my best friend. They care about me and I care about them and it's nice to talk to others once a week.
I kinda ran outta steam for finding friends the last 2 months, I was trying and trying and I'm just tired after months and months or trying 🤷
I think about making a post all the time, but also feel like I'm writing into the void, which has been terrifying me lately, the void that is, long story short, I was stressed AF and couldn't sleep for days the day before Halloween and tried to smoke to fall asleep, but before I'd just taken a hit or two of my brothers sleep type vape, but actually smoked it that night for the first time and instead tripped horribly and it's still affecting me mentally, the memory of the horror that was that night.
Editing a note: I was basically trying to test for a bit if a sleep strain of weed would help with my at the time rampid insomnia since sleep meds either don't work on me or give me bad side effects, but after that night I'm probably never touching it again so ✌🏼
I also am just not feeling great medically, I just got my broken tooth pulled through and did my wisdoms at the same time and already feel better even with the jaw pain, so hopefully some of the not feeling well was because of my teeth, I've been working on trying to finally fix my teeth as well and I think it might actually happen now
Anyways, it's after 3:20am so I'm gonna go lay down even if I don't sleep till 4 cause laying down is better than nothing

really really tmi wisdom teeth recovery talk
my recovery has been remarkably easy, I was worried for a bit that I would get a sinus infection bc I was reading about it online (did you know the sinuses are separated from the top of the mouth by millimeters of flesh and that can easily tear in/after wisdom.teeth removal) and I was a little mucus-y AND most of all the biggest obstacle to my recovery is that I CANNOTTTTTT stop putting my stupid tongue in these gaping holes in my mouth. there's always food in there I'm trying to get out (gross!) and it's such a fascinating sensation to poke and sometimes it hurts and sometimes it doesn't which of course makes me want to try more. and they heal SOOO quickly like the flesh has grown almost completely over them in a week and a half which is crazy. it feels like it should be slower to heal bc the mouth is such a volatile environment but I think it's actually faster. I can feel a tiny pokey something on both sides which I'm pretty sure is the stitches coming out and I want to yank them out so badly. in general there was very little pain which is good but also bad bc there's very little stopping me from poking and picking at the whole ordeal. except that it's in the back of my mouth and hard to reach. I asked max if I can look at the filling he got last week and he let me but I couldn't touch :( why won't he let me do amateur dentistry on him :( when I was 12 and my braces broke on a long weekend my sister and dad fixed them at home (only sort of) and it was such a horrifying but also fascinating experience. anyway I promise i don't have a dentist fetish I just think teeth are cool. if you read this far... good luck!

Hashtag emetophobia tw ifykwim)
BUT YEAH THE RECOVERY PROCESS WAS SHITTTT THEY TOLD ME I COULD TAKE OUT THE GAUZE IN 2 HRS AND SLEEP BC I WAS VERY TIRED BUT NOOOO IT WOUKDNT HEALLL FOR A WHOLE SIX ASS HOURS
Ahem sorry for yelling i was just very . Upset bc i wanted to sleep or even just drink fucking water man
BUT I DIDDD EVENTUALLY I DIDD WE REJOICEEE i think there was still a little bit of blood but i couldnt taste it anymore and i was really thirsty so shfkfkf and food (literally just broth lmao) made me feel a lot better so that's good
But yeah . -1100000 experience i would literally never recommend it (unless u have to, also from who I've talked to almost everyone else has had a better experience than me so if u are scared, do not worry king it won't be that bad. And even if it is like me, im here!! And alive!! And the nausea wasnt that bad, it kinda just came and went. Much better than migraines bro fr, migraines suck BALLS)
Like everyone kept telling me to watch a movie but that was stressing me out so what i ended up doing wss putting on a podfic (passerine podcast on yt woot woot, i listened to change fate by sircantus) and man it's actually wild how much it helped me. It helped calm my anxiety AND distract me from the pain. Once i did that existing felt less like suffering and more like an annoyance ahahah
OUGH I DIDNT EVEN GET ANY SILLY GOOFY MOMENTS EITHER BC I WASNT LOOPY AT ALL JUST TIRED DHFJFK
Anyways ty for letting me get that out of my system LMAOO
oh man this sounds literally horrible I'm so sorry icy 😭 that sucks that you weren't able to knock out even a little bit but at least the procedure itself wasn't horrible
god that sounds terrible though just sitting there for 6 hours waiting to be able to take the gauze out. that's so strange that it took so long. but at least you were able to listen to passerine podcast that's nice!!
everyone I know whose gotten their wisdom teeth removed had a better experience than this I am so sorry you got so unlucky.
I'm very grateful that I'm never gonna have to get my wisdom teeth removed. I had soooo much horribly painful dental work done to my mouth throughout my entire teen years that I now genuinely get bad anxiety anytime I'm in a dentist office even if I'm not there for myself, I straight up was getting anxious when I took my grandma there for a cleaning the other day 😭 and I keep putting off a recommended (minor) procedure bc of this anxiety it's badddd
I hope you're feeling better now though!!

back from first appointment today, i uh think i might be getting hormones on the 2nd of July, a little bummed its not IN june bc i think that would be funny, but i mean im kind of shocked at how fast its all happening, i went to like a specific clinic and they were like yeah we got a guy set up we can get this all started in like 2 weeks and i didnt even have any questions
also found this faygo at the convenience store, ive seen faygo before but ive never tried it and i like cotton candy stuff. its uh, i think its not very good but i kind of like it? idk its weird. its not carbonated like at all, i think it would be better if it was carbonated. it kind of tastes like water that had candy soaking in it. or like how that cotton candy body spray smells if it tasted like it smells. im keeping the bottle though its kinda cute
not once did doctor comment on my weight which is probably a first i was like my cholesterol is probably bad bc i only just started exercising again and he was like well exercising is important for any gender
so weird going to a doctor and immediately being on the same page as them, whenever ive gone to a doctor before about other problems usually theres always been a case of either theyre undermining me or IM undermining THEM bc im expecting them to undermine me and it was so nice to go and and both of us go like i trust you to be intelligent. esp bc part of my trans story is "i learned about being trans on the medical channel when i was 7 bc i watched the medical channel a lot as a child" so he was like yknow i guess it makes a lot of sense that youd be well informed then
also, i am american so it gets brought up EVERY TIME and i think its funny but its also kind of embarrassing when someone mentions my accent because i feel a little bit like a cartoon character, part of my brain is like yes im american, yes hamburger bald eagle freedom. i am sorry.
i think were gonna go for butt injection, he was like trying to scare me a bit with how painful it apparently is and i was like i just had the worst experience with needles in my mouth when i got my wisdom teeth pulled recently i can probably handle it, and he was like no i heard its worse and i was in my head like, maybe you dont understand how horrible that mouth needle was it was really bad
either way im not really afraid of the butt needle im not someone who is afraid of needles like literally at all
bit jealous of women getting to have a pill, i know some still get injections but having the option of a pill must be nice on some level
anyway yeah my next appointment is July 2nd and i have to manage to get in with the specialist (which i think is just gonna be similar to what we did today but like itll end with a big APPROVED stamp) and do blood work before that appointment
and were gonna work on top surgery, hes got a surgeon lined up i think we need a psych thing for that for like insurance reasons or something and then we need money (15,000 dollars!!!!!!!!!)
asked if i want bottom and i was like no bc its too expensive and he was like ok thats probably good no one around here is any good at it

🧟‍♀️ scariest thing that’s happened to you
&
🔥 craziest thing that’s ever happened to you
CW:// Mentions of stalking, death threats, and wisdom teeth removal
🧟‍♀️ Scariest thing that’s ever happened to you?
So when I was in college I had a friend who was having a “thing” with an RA. She wanted it to be more of a friends-with-benefits thing but he wanted to be more than that. He was becoming insanely possessive of her and hated when we tried to hang out with her. Eventually she tried to cut things off cause he got too much to handle but he started stalking her and me and our other friend which eventually led to threats do stuff to get us kicked out of the school. I got a note on my bed once saying how much he hated me and that I’ll ‘stay out of their relationship if I know what’s good for me’. I even recorded him telling my friend that he would ‘bury us’ if we didn’t stop meddling and get out of his way. I took it to the school hoping they would kick him out or do something. But they didn’t do anything. I was terrified cause he’s an RA and had access to my dorm and a key to my room and they didn’t even strip him of his job. Also, the police didn’t do anything either sooooo yeah. Scary stuff.
🔥 Craziest thing that’s ever happened to you?
I’m sure I have a better story than this but this is all I can think of right now.
I got my wisdom teeth pulled back in 2021 and it had taken me soooooo long to get the appointment. One of the teeth was literally crumbling and I was in so much pain. So I get there and they try to put me under but my veins are really hard to find (yes, blood tests are a bitch lmao) and they couldn’t get it. So they said I could either reschedule and get the surgery done at the hospital or I can do the gas/numbing stuff instead and just be awake for it. Well, I was in so much pain and didn’t want to reschedule so I opted for the gas….and let me tell you. WORST decision ever. OMGGGG as someone who suffers from anxiety and was already insanely stressed about it, it was so traumatizing. They were like "do you feel dizzy yet?" and I kept saying no cause I didn't and they were baffled that I was still so lucid and not feeling it so I think they thought I was lying? Anyway, I felt like I could feel everything. Not as in pain pain per se. Although there definitely was some. But the pressure was horrible. And they couldn’t even take one all the way out cause it was too close to a nerve, so they had to use a saw thing to cut it and the sound in my ears almost made me die. I was crying so bad and the gas thing over my nose kept loosing its suction with how I was breathing/crying and I swear it sounded like a pig.
Anyway, I don’t recommend doing it that way. Just be asleep for your wisdom teeth removal please lol

I disassociated so hard in the dentist today and then vaguely thought “I wonder who’s present rn. I wonder who’s processing all of this for me?” and brought myself bad to the full reality of what was happening to me. And it was painful. What a horrible way to resurface.
And then ontop of that I had this horrible(imo) interaction with somebody. It got quiet. The kind of quiet it gets when you’re having a staring contest. And so whenever she’d explain to me the devastation of my teeth, she’d pause and my brain just started going fucking nuts because “this is where you say something” echoed inside my head but I knew for a fact it was not. Anyways. That was the most painful explanation ever. But I really appreciated this new dentist for actually explaining what they were doing to me and what they were looking at and let me see the pictures they took and helped me comprehend them.
Which. Both terrified me because I’ve had a clean dental record for damn near 7 years or something wild and suddenly I go to a new dentist and they’re like… haha… uhm here’s 7 cavities. It’s going to cost over $1300. (In a professional way tho). And I’m pissed off because when they explained how they spotted the cavities on two of my teeth I was like… I think those have been there since my last checkup where the old dentist said I’m all good. And I’m so confused now. But I didn’t say that because it was so awkward. Thank fuck my mom wasn’t there to see the initial check in.
Also why do adults go into so much detail about how painful it is to have cavities when we’re kids. When I was a child I thought “that sounds horrible” and shrugged it off. Now as an adult I see the great fear.
Also like. Will they let me wear my noice cancelling headphones while they work on the cavities? I’m so fucking scared. Adults really gotta figure out what not to say around children with the belief that there won’t be consequences.
Anyways. We talked about flossing and when my teeth were being cleaned, the person helping could hardly get the flosser between some of the teeth. It was so hard to explain to the doctor who did the real evaluation that like. I get discouraged by how hard it is. I can’t get around my retainer or back by my wisdom teeth(I have a jaw locking problem weird ass thing and can’t open my mouth much). And I want to floss but I don’t know how. So they gave me a whole bunch of tools and she suggested something expensive or something that basically blasts water at my teeth to help with flossing. So… there’s that. We’ll see if the other stuff works first. It’s not that I don’t want to floss but I cut my fingers open with flosser string cuz I saw so much to get it into my teeth. But floss picks shred after one tooth.
At least my new dentist is super kind.
They were like. Wanna set up your 6 month cleaning. And I had to awkwardly think like… we go once every two years but uhm… sure. Well that failed cuz I’m gone during the six month period so I’m basically going back in 11 months.
Im so scared to tell my mom about what they found. And even more scared to go back.

Randomly growing wisdom teeth are such a pain, because like
It's the same teething babies and little puppies have so many chew things (and also why they cry because IT HURTS)
But somehow with wisdom teeth you are somehow supposed to... Just Deal With It Because You Are Supposedly An Adult Now
Anyways, I suggest that it's the perfect time to hear the ancestral call to Bite Someone, like nature intended!
TRUE.............i'm not even an adult yet and i had to remove my first wisdom tooth last year because it was fucking coming out of my gums and it hurt so bad 😭😭
i guess my body is really telling me to just go fuck it and go canni instincts and eat everyone
