Of course I'm thinking about house breaking his own hand when he was detoxing for a bet so he could focus on something other than his leg. Of course I'm thinking about his conversation with the self-harming, bulimic patient who accidentally destroyed her own heart. The patient asks if house wants her to cry and he shouts in response that he would, that he'd like any indication of whether she cares if she lives or dies. Of course I'm thinking about him lying to the transplant committee for her, putting his medical license on the line to save her life. The way this case seemed personal
#🏚🩺#i am juxtaposing scenes. i think there was something more to this case#especially with the way he goes to wilson about it (even if he only beats around the bush and says he cant say anything)#mmmmmm i have thoughts#also i wanma know whats wrong with him#and i know i know he does shit like this all the time but this seemed. different#like his coworkers pointed out (i think it was chase specifically idk)#its weird that when he discovered the meds the patient was using to make herself throw up he didnt shove it in everyones faces#that he figured it out. he just ran tests and put her on the transplant list#and he Talked To Her he actually interacted with her not just to call her stupid (as he is known to do) but for Answers#what i mean to say is i dont think house's self harm was an isolated incident and i think in some ways he saw himself in this patient#okay okay ill shut up now

vaccines are magic like do you know how powerful it feels to have a rabies vaccine? I could go touch a bat right now if I wanted to!!!!!! I'm fucking invincible
#probably shouldn't bc I haven't had my titers checked in 3 yrs but lol#WHEN I WAS MORE SURE IT FELT SO POWERFUL#I'm not in vet med anymore so I can't justify the cost of a booster or titer test or anything

Unpopular Opinion: ADHD Akechi
#source: I have adhd and I say so#full on 'Pleasure to have in class :)' adhd#also also: he's only diagnosed post-canon bc his mother (who also has adhd) never had the time or money to get a diagnosis-#and then foster homes and then shido#and then ryuji forces him to get tested bc 'u act way to much like how i do off my meds'#n e ways you have to see my vision#goro akechi#persona 5#more assholes with adhd pls i'm tired of seeing golden retrievers

Got diagnosed with adhd lmao
@wathav you were right 🙄 /j
#sillyposting#adhd#AuDHD#she had me so scared because she was saying my attention was actually really good on the qb test#I was like if she says I don’t have it I’m going to lose my mind#but she said I still met the criteria for adhd and actually had more hyperactive symptoms than innattention#which is WILD to me#and I feel is not very accurate but if it gets me meds I do not care#got lots of imposter syndrome about this but pushing it aside under the goal of ‘who cares about the diagnosis#if I can get meds that help me stop failing at school from absolute dogshit executive dysfunction#that I’ve had for as long as I can remember’#anyway trying meds fucking HOORAY.

every day i struggle to make choices
#i should invest into some kind of education but cant make up my mind#mostly because options suck#i cant do trades unless my body sucks less which is sad because id love to be an electrician#cant even think about getting a pilots license cuz im not passing the med cert#i think id rather die than be a med assistant actually#working clinics at all makes me nervous tbh but probably where im headed in the short term#surgical tech would be cool but i cant do a Real program while working full-time#which is what limits most of my choices#i need to find more paid training programs i guess#if i had to pick a miserable but fulfilling job id go into education itself#but the teaching profession has always been in a downward spiral esp as of late#i dont want healthcare because i hate seeing dysfunctional glorified murder machines grinding around and around endlessly#acute care sucks id rather be in an icu for function but then im depressed because our patients are always dying#it was better as a phleb but this hospital doesnt have phleb and like i said im nervous about clinics#but i need to fucking commit to outpatient phlebotomy i think :/#the most fun ive had at a job ever#i wish i had more widely applicable skills but i cant be an emt/para even just for the training#because half of it is unpaid and the other half you pay for#and again#a job NOTORIOUS for being exhausting dangerous and traumatizing#if i was 17 again and wasnt escaping the tar pit of my mother id go for an english degree and i wouldnt even regret it#thinking about school in terms of a job i have to have forever vs for the sake of learning is so different#id like to know everything. i wanna read and write forever. and do research and have real technical skills that help people#im still riding off of the high of getting 5 ccs off of an oncology patient who desperately needed a port#they were able to run like seven tests off of it#i had to use a couple ped tubes#she only had to get poked Once and barely noticed it bc the doc team came in and im so happy i made her admission that muvh easier#labs are so miserable#checking back on the blood and seeing all of the results came through made me more pleased than anything else in the world

#psychiatrist appt went well#easy to talk to and understood my hesitation given previous side effects#did not immediately start writing scripts or suggest I try any of the meds one more time just to be sure#assured me we would go at my pace and with what I was comfortable with#ordered the genetic testing to identify which meds might work best for me#we will work from those results#this was my goal#so feeling good about the appointment and plan so far#thank you for the good vibes

in the hopital again
#medical#illness#the doctors decided that i might have tuberculosis. not the kind that affects lungs bc my lungs r fine#but the kind that affects lymph nodes specifically in the neck...#but they were never actually able to confirm it from any of the samples they took so like . we're just guessing at this point lmao#and if the tuberculosis meds have no effect im worried that even the docs will run out of ideas like they've tried to find everythingggg#n all the tests they did came back negative. they were only able to confirm the staph infection n a couple other bacteria back in september#but clearly this is more than a staph infection since the antibiotics took care of that and yet my lymph nodes r still acting up#apparently there r cases of tuberculosis where it just doesn't show up in any tests so maybe i'm one of those cases. idk#anyway genuinely think i'm abt to snap soon im so tired and frustrated by this whole thing!!!!!!!!!!!#el.txt

im shaky, im nauseous, but it is done
#ive gotta jump through some hoops but i stood my ground and Insisted on the hysterectomy#she pulled the whole “oh well it may be difficult to get it done at 25” and i cut her off and was like “this is destroying my life and i#have 0 plans on having kids“ (more elaborated than that) and then she was like ”well ok you have to jump through these hoops but we can get#you scheduled after the holiday season if you're willing to do this stuff“#so now i have a new med im being sedated next week to get some testing done & a temporary IUD (she's insisting and knowing my family's#reactions to ot it'll probably SUCK but whatever) and then hopefully in s few months I'll be scheduled for this procedure#i think she realized i was serious when I nearly started crying explaining just the bare minimum of how it's impacting my life

quick note - this blog is gonna be sparse again for at least this week. trying new medications and tbh initial side effects are not super pleasant + actual effects build up. as a result: currently as if unmedicated for mental health, with anxiety+ side effect, extra fatigue, dizziness, and fatigue. it's uh, sure something.
totally recognize that most of y'all know we're absent at times due to health things, just wanted to give a heads up that this one is at least anticipated.
#fun fact sometimes condensing meds just means poorer treatment of some conditions#this is a re-expansion + new thing#so that instead of poorly treating my mental health and using an unusually high dose SNRI for another (physical) condition#i will hopefully both be in less pain AND not depressed af AND also have an appetite again#i doubt i will be lucky and not have a fucked stomach due to meds but one can hope that an appetite will allow me to eat foods that upset#my stomach a lot less#my health is forever a massive balancing act#every time a medical thing is like 'so what meds do u take' i'm like here i wrote it down for u#and they're like 'oh. ooookay. let me just...' *five minutes of typing and clicking later*#'so! what did you come in for again? uhuh. you said you experience pain daily? with your chronic pain thing? hm. have you tried yoga?'#/gen#like. straight up every time i say 'i am in pain all the time due to fibromyalgia' they are like 'ooh studies say regular exercise helps'#and like. theoretically yes! but also. i would be lying if i said the fibromyalgia studies i've skimmed don't set off general 'bad science'#alarm bells in my brain#like... cool you performed a fibromyalgia study with... all male lab rats? mhmm? so are you aware fibromyalgia appears to occur#overwhelmingly in women? like. data seems to suggest between 70-85%?#(not that the data can't still indicate things but it certainly makes male rats a poor choice of model for tests on it)#also just... idk i've looked at some metaanalysis and been like 'okay cool theory and for all i know about human bio or bio in general that#sounds more or less correct BUT. you never discussed that one study on this subject that did NOT support your conclusion.#and that's 1) interesting when it was the most diverse group of subjects and the exceptions often teach just as much as the 'rule'#2) just shitty science. tell me how your theory is still credible when some evidence doesn't fit the model.#like... 'given that all other studies were primarily conducted on white american women in their 30s to 40s it is possible that this model#only explains (the early effects of fibro since that's a typical onset period) / (a possible genetic link primarily found in white women) /#(a possible sign of bias in diagnosis that demonstrates the possibility that there are different causes) / combinations of all of those#like... idk a paper that just throws out things that don't support it is a pretty big red flag#it doesn't mean the conclusion is entirely incorrect but it is often important to understand the context in which it applies#like... it's very easy to jump to an incorrect conclusion if you used something in the wrong context#ie: thumbs up is a good job / positive thing in a lot of western civilizations. teenage kee once went to china and discovered it to be#neutral to offensive in many areas outside of major tourist locations that were used to it#anyways i gotta sleep

the problem with having taken a sick leave last year and having so many people reassure me that it was necessary and okay and good is that it created some kind of pop-up error message in my head that says "actually all my responsibilities should wait until i don't feel sick" when the reality is that i feel a little sick all the time and will for the foreseeable future. i am nowhere near as sick as i was and i both can and must do things. my once notable skill of powering through with an inner well of silent smugness has been critically weakened, because in addition to the realistic necessary burden of the actual things while feeling uncomfortable, i also have the weight of the little gremlin in my head saying "we don't have to tho :3" yes we do!! like yeah sometimes pushing myself will make things worse but i gotta. and sometimes the work i do will be sub-par because i feel sick but i gotta do it anyway. and sometimes it won't even make things worse it's just me feeling like i should "rest up" for a magical wellspring of health that won't actually arise because the whole deal with this thing is that the fatigue is not cured by rest and the meds i'm taking have side effects and i just!! gotta do it!!!!!
#the symptoms#sometimes i gotta pep talk out loud#this one new med i'm testing has all these bipolar warnings for mania that everyone's 👀 watching for but so far it's like...#i don't have any of the energy or godly ambition that usually comes at the beginning of an upward swing for me#but i DO have more of the 'can't focus on one thing' and 'consequences never heard of her'#and coupled with low energy and nausea that's counterproductive my dudes!!!!!

Damn,we (I) need more headcanons about Mera,she really has a good potential with dinamics and stuff
#Like she hasn't get a solid interaction with the gang#Only nendo#And that was for a fuking drug test#I know it was really meds but I don't give shit#She has more jobs than I will ever have.#And also has to take care of his lil brothers and sisters#She's such a strong girl#For not to mention she's pretty too#And that she focuses on his priorities above all#She spoke as fast as she could with Ku when he discovered his work#And the other things I already mentioned#She tried hard to pay for the school trip even with all her daily duties#Mera deserve so much#mera chisato#Saiki#Saik#the disastrous life of saiki k#saiki kusuo no ψ nan

it is 1am and all I can think about is how insanely tragic it is how overlooked the friendship between Ema Skye and Phoenix is. Like they worked on one absolutely bonkers case together and her influence on him lingered on his design after he got disbarred in the form of the pin on his beanie and its repeatedly shown that he kept the things (pink glasses, fingerprint dust) she gave him for like ten years. She's getting drunk at his office with Apollo in that one piece of official art. She wants to strangle Klavier for his involvement in Phoenixs disbarrment and they're both a little obsessed with Edgeworth.
#they're BUDDIES#i like the vibe that she is just nasty to Klavier bc of everything but Phoenix is totally chill with him#they're drinking buddies who are aholes when they don't have the jobs that they want#shes the perfect little sister that provides him with plenty of kits that test for poison while he's dealing with Kristoph#they encourage each others hater tendancies#she shares her adhd meds with him when he cant afford his perscription#she faxes him memes bc he refuses to get a phone that can handle images through texts#do you guys see my vision?#phoenix wright#ema skye#anyway I saw like one fic where they’re just dicking around at a crime scene and am devastated that there’s not more of that vibe

Once again no crafts to update, but here’s those fish I drew yesterday!
#the person behind the yarn#fish#sometimes I draw a new thing and it feels like I’ve unlocked a new skill#like I’ll get a pop up that says unlocked: you can now draw billowing and spots. congratulations!#or something? idk I don’t play many video games so idk how the achievements are worded lol#I am on new meds for my Symptoms Disease and they are helping a lot but there’s always an adjustment period#because when my body starts functioning better than usual my executive function kinda spins out for a while?#it’s getting better! but crafting has been slow#I also got some blood test results back! I test positive for autoimmune antibodies#which is one of the first quantitative blood test results I’ve had EVER in over a decade#I’m trying not to get too excited before I talk to a doc#but it’s actually four different blood test results that are abnormal this time and all four point toward autoimmune#…plus several more that point to me being a little bit anemic
