TW// nausea

Sometimes I think about how I was refused nausea medication for years (from 8th grade to my first year of college) despite having a chronic nausea issue and was only given nausea medication last semester to help with a DIFFERENT health issue I had. I usually know when I’m going to actually throw up or not, so when I would wake up for school or work too nauseous to leave the house but unable to throw up or feel better, I missed out on a lot of days I needed to be present if I just simply had the medicine I do now. Well, I’m unsure if they’ll let me get another prescription since the other health issue went away (hopefully doesn’t come back) but since having the medication I’ve actually been able to be more functional and present. It’s a little frustrating at times.
