#constant anxiety and stress levels of someone being hunted for sport

tmj is the fucking worst??

i've been having all of these random symptoms that made it feel like i was having some horrible infection and i was convinced bc my jaw hurt so badly that my teeth were rotting out of my head or something

no. it's just fucking tmj. making me dizzy, making it hard to swallow, making it feel like i have a lot of sinus pressure, giving me light-sensitivity headaches, giving me the symptoms of ear infections without actually having one, making my teeth hurt and so i couldn't find my bite fully, etc. and apparently it can even make your anxiety worse 🙃✌

the muscles in my back and neck are just so tight that it's causing complete havoc from the shoulders up iejfaoiwejfaowijef i truly have the stress levels of someone being hunted for sport

the good news is that now that i know what it is, i can do things to make it better AND i'm not going to have constant panic attacks thinking that i'm legitimately dying. and i'd rather have tmj than have to go to the dentist lmao
