Politics of a normie Democrat, with a few quirky positions.
I only discuss politics in good faith, and I block swiftly for rudeness or identity attacks.
My opinions are my own (but are strongly influenced by the people around me, the culture I’m surrounded by, the education I received, societal norms, mores, taboos, and a host of other environmental factors past and present)

Have had #migraines since puberty - 40 years now. Course is always: pain, vomiting, need to be not-present because presence causes more pain, 3 hours or so. Then 3 hours of soundly sleeping. Reliable pattern that lays waste to a day, easy.
Modified recently by #eletriptan, which decreases the pain and allows me to be present in the world. Wonderful drug.

Today, for the first time, it was preceded (though there was no pain, so I had no idea) by visual field deficits that FREAKED ME RIGHT OUT. Clearly in my brain, not an eye. I do not want brain troubles. I live in there.

To those migraineurs who get this '#aura' shit regularly - that I previously classed as 'no biggie compared to the pain'; I am so sorry. The first time it happens it is absolutely terrifying.

Hey hey friends who get #migraines, can you please share your favorite tips? I seem to be getting a new condition, lolsob. I think it's likely hormonal (i.e. peri/menopause).

Right now things that help are: sometimes caffeine (sometimes that backfires), Tylenol (Advil does little), that headache music I mentioned before, getting off screens and away from bright lights and noise, rest, or VERY gentle movement (like slow zen-walking around the house).

What works for you? (boosts welcome!)

Time for a new #introduction post.

Hiya. 👋 I'm Dreadful Sanity aka Mel, a level 47 gamer from Germany. #Videogames keep me basically from going completely crazy and therefore alive. I'm #disabled, suffering from debilitating #migraines most days of the week. I also have #ADHD which means my brain is usually going all over the place. And last but not least, there is some #BPD mixed into the mess that I am. Beware of that.

The games that I usually alternate through are...
#Warcraft
#DragonAge
#MassEffect
#Cyberpunk2077
#TheSims4
#BaldursGate3

Though every now and then I will play something new. Or different.

I think that's all. 👉 👈 😊

Sorry for the #delay on #LOL . My neck is out, and I've been dealing with #migraines . I have an appointment with my #Chiropractor today. #Show will be out Friday!

Q: How long have I been on the Internet?
A: Do not cite the deep magic to me, witch, I was there when it was written.

Another batch of birdsite folks, so I'll do #introduction again in case they're looking for their people and I'm their people.

I am a #queer #disabled #SFF #author. She/they.

I speak #English and a little #Español, #ASL, and #Csharp and #python.

I have fairly severe #EhlersDanlos / #EDS, #POTS, #migraines, #ChronicPain.

I am a #socialist organizer with #DemSoc, most interested in #feminism and #MutualAid.

I enjoy #punk, #ska, #FolkPunk, and lately I'm on a #metal kick.

I do #VisualArts, #FiberArts, and #FireSpinning, though these things are somewhat dialed back because my bones suck.

***

I will do my best to post accessibly, including image descriptions and avoiding flashing lights.

I will CW for things like violence, nudity, and hate speech.

I will not CW for cursing, food, politics, or eye contact. If you need CWs for these things, it's okay not to follow me! I just do all of these things a lot, so you wouldn't see most of my posts anyway.

If I see you, and you make interesting original posts, I might follow you. If you post a lot of sexually graphic content, I probably won't. It's not personal.

Hope to see you around 💜

Today's post expanding on my #bio and #Introduction:

I am #disabled.

I have a chronic pain disorder called #fibromyalgia. #Fibro is similar to #MECFS, and is characterised by fatigue and altered sleep, memory and mood.
Widespread muscle pain and tenderness are the most common symptoms.

The way that it manifests for me is pain in around my joints, particularly my shoulders, wrists, and hands, and my knees and feet. Most days I have a background pain level of about 3/10, and my flare-ups pop up to a pain level of about 6-8/10.

I also have back issues that stem from the years I spent as a nurse - I have compressed discs in my cervical spine, in my lumbar-sacral spine, and a zygapophyseal joint around T7 that keeps dislocating.

I'm in pain most days, but I think worse than the pain is the utter exhaustion from dealing with it constantly. I also get frustrated because I used to have a very strong and capable body, and now there's so much that I just can't do.

I'm also #MentallyIll - I have #cptsd, #ocd, #agoraphobia, #anxiety, and some other bits and pieces of cluster-b disorders.

I'm #autistic and have #adhd, my #autism is #SelfDiagnosed at the moment but my psychologist agrees with my assessment, my adhd was diagnosed by a psychiatrist only last year (I'm 48 - if you want to talk about late diagnosis, let me know).

There are other things I deal with like #diabetes and #migraines, but the fibro and spinal injuries are the main ones.
