Out of The Corner/In The World

User Profile: unassumingEyes
unassumingEyes October 29th, 2024

Hi! Some of you might know of my other space here, In the corner. Or just, "the corner" in my head. This is the world! I.e this is me learning to "adult" (what?), get out of my comfort zone, accept my flaws, seek the positives in life, etc etc! My journey out of the comfort zone, basically. And it's going to be rocky, it's going to be real hard, and I'm going to end up in the corner venting about something more times than not, probably, but it's a step, I think. 

Let's get out of the corner! (That was kinda cheesy!)

I have to do three chapters one of which is super hard and mom wants to take us for grocery 

Do I look like I have time 

User Profile: unassumingEyes
unassumingEyes OP January 15th

18 pgs, 1 chapter and about 70-80 short questions left. Not including numericals. On the positive side theres about 6 and a half hours till 10. The chapter is hard, im expecting it to take 3 hours, but that still leaves around 3 for the rest.

I hope

@unassumingEyes Some times we need to take a break, even when we feel we shouldn't or just don't have the time for it. Having a headache is a good reason for a break. Too much eye strain from reading and trying to take in so much information and your body will force you to take a break 💙

@unassumingEyes Well.... yeah sort of? 😬 You need time to just have some kind of fun. Even if it's just taking a few minutes to watch something silly and have a few laughs. The whole all work and no play thing doesn't make life a whole lot of fun. Do you get time off? Or are things just hectic now because of exams?

Good Morning people

Its kind of average actually because stomach ache and chemistry but we'll call it good and see if it turns good

Exams at 2.30, its 9.36. I have some time to freak out. And feel like ive forgotten everything yippee 

Everyone else is asleep. I just did 8 long questions before hopping on cupsland. Just have numericals left, but if i have time i might revise some long qs...one can hope 

First batch has already given their exam and it was not easy. The qs paper makes me shudder, but lets see

@unassumingEyes You could grab a nap when the opportunity presents itself. I lived like that for years...sometimes I still do.

... 😕

Now I'm wondering how much your condition is like my own. Headaches after naps, eh?...odd. Does your head hurt after doing other things, like eating certain foods?

Also if you haven't seen a doctor about this by now, then I am not impressed with your folks (particularly your mother). At least in terms of parenting competency. It sounds like you might have chronic illness of some sort.

@slowdecline48 i actually suspect migraines as it runs in the maternal side of my family. Once, when i had a bad headache and was in the hospital for it, i heard the doctor use the term in relation with me. When i recovered and asked mom later she said i dont have migraines. Well. God knows.

I havent visited a doctor to specificaly find out the reason for these, though

I havent noticed any headaches being cause by eating special foods. Naps, perfumes, sudden loud sounds are the triggers i know of

We learnt in islamic class (see below) that women can refuse to marry any man even if the whole world insists she marry him. So yes, forced marriages are not islam, arranged marriages are. Glad to have that cleared up, myself

 The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The virgin should not be given in marriage until her permission has been sought.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari, 6968; Muslim, 1419) 

The apparent meaning is that this is general and applies to every virgin and every guardian; there is no difference between a father or any other guardian. So, Al-Bukhari interpreted the hadith by saying: “Chapter: The father or other guardian should not give a virgin or previously married woman in marriage except with their consent.” 

(Above interpretation from islamqa)

@unassumingEyes I would if I could, O overworked not-eating-enough one. 😃

Found a couple links for you. The last possible Dx I was given was "vestibular migraines"...that may or may not be your condition. If you have ear issues along with your headaches & other symptoms, that is a distinct possibility. It could also be "neurological" but if so, that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish I won't dig into here. Anyway:

WebMD page about VMs

UK-based page ibid.

@slowdecline48 new title, nice xD

I dont think its vestibular migraine. I mean, no dizziness for me. Or the flashing light/blurriness thing. Nasuea and fatigue yes- but i dont think those have anything to do with the headaches 

Also the concern is appreciated, but dont worry, really. Ive had these headaches since i was like 7. It might just be a direct result of being underweight (food and me havent been friends for a long time)

@unassumingEyes If reading classic literature is your idea of wasting time, then I don't want to know what counts as maximum productiveness in your book. The most common way to waste time these days is (anti)social media addiction, as you surely already knew.

You're only human, you know. You cannot go without food or sleep...not for very long, anyway. And you sure wouldn't be productive by any definition of the word, especially during your last 48 hours. 🫥 💀
