hope you feel better soon!
I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!
#ask#non mdzs#My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl#So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume#but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice#and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

finally learning what gout is caused by and suddenly stan mentioning he has "super gout!" make tons of sense
#bacon sugary foods and alcohol..... the guy never had a chance huh#(it being known as arthritis of kings feels like salt in a wound with him living in poverty for so long tho#then again he does commission those god damn villain portraits of himself)#anyway my blorbo living with all sorts of chronic pain free him#its a bit funny when some folks depict ford as overly health conscious for stan cos#while pre weirdmageddon ford boasts about being in peak physical condition + takes digs at stan's weight#post w ford spent the week regaining stan's memories by giving him his fave foods#and now we have him rewarding him with beer lol#apparently coffee is supposed to reduce the uric acids#but considering stan has been doing all nighters for decades im guessing that didn't work#(.....would ford's reaction be 'gotta give him more coffee then!!')#still can't get over stan selling his heart meds to kids

On the scale of blorbos what’s the one you are the most abnormal about?
Like the “I can’t normally talk about them because my chest gets all tight and I talk too fast and my smile is so big my words aren’t coherent and I stay up uber late just liking posts of them because I already used up all my reblogs that day on them.” Kind. I get so excited I don’t know where to put all the energy and I’m just jittering in place like an infinite bouncing ball.
I can’t look at any of the source material either or else I’ll combust even though I miss my blorbos so I burn through everything I can find and then I start taking filters off out of desperation only to have instant regret it’s call dead dove:do not eat for a reason. And when I finally get myself to absorb source material I quite literally melt and all my pent up energy makes me feel like shitty homade aspik being shaken out of its tin.
Next thing you know I am making fan work despite not even finishing canon. My phones at one percent and it’s 3 AM and I have written 2,000 words in my notes app and autocorrect knows the names of the blorbos and fills them in before I type them.
Help
#blorbos#have ruined me#I am looking at you#the glass scientists#I’ve never been so enamored by a media before#and I get so anxious wondering what’s going to happen next I have to walk away#how dare you reduce me to a leaking battery now there’s acid everywhere and my nightlight doesn’t have power#RAGH

there is this one quote that really changed my life: "pain is a sensation, and sensations are to be enjoyed". i finally stopped running away, and then i suddenly realized how wondrous it is to have a body. it's not your enemy, it's trying to help you!
#vagueblogging#yeah yeah dont be concerned i do take my painkillers when i need them#but i do suffer from particularly nasty acid reflux and some psychological issues#so reducing the fear of pain really helped me deal with it#rn i just have a cold#still useful though

had coffee and adderall and a stomach acid reducer that makes my adderall hit differently as a side effect and boy am I frickin' zazzed rn
#i used to drink coffee with adderall to get right to the sweet spot I needed of stimulants#but since I started taking this prescription acid reducer for chronic lpr coffee and adderall make me go wild#but at least not in a jittery way just a 'okay I'm talking and hyperfixating more than normal and yet I feel very lucid' it's so weird#personal

Just saw someone reduce OCD to sorting and organizing and I’m—
#I’m going to stab a wall#they were like teehee you know you have ocd when you sort stuff by color during work#literally fuck you#I don’t suffer through the worst intrusive thoughts where my mind turns to acid just for you to reduce it to a stereotype#my posts

creamy mushroom ragu was stellarrrr last night and so easy to make, new staple!
#only mod i made was to add some white wine to the sauce after it reduced - needed some acidity#i'll actually add more next time i was pretty conservative based on the recipe comments#also i just used spaghetti#i'm trying to build a habit of trying new recipes more regularly to build up my cheap staples#expect more recipe shares!#food //

sorry i dont trust the science on this one. i feel like when one of the signs that you know its working is that your skin is more sensitive and prone to sunburn, and more delicate, and you can't use it too frequently because it's too harsh, you should not be using it. but that's just me.
#skincarepilled girls do not reply to this to tell me to use retinol or whatever. i don't care and i'm not going to#acid strip your skin every other day!! you HAVE to. it's scientifically proven to reduce signs of aging!! well i am aging. now what
