The Tale of the Allergist's Daughter

[upstart_crow]

Please excuse the silence. I’ve apparently developed allergies to something in Florida, and I’ve been battling bone-crushing fatigue since September. The meds help, but apparently they can’t do so without kicking my anxiety up to 11, which means I’ve been basically useless for the last two months and late with everything. Bodies are fun, man

I'm very allergic to Texas, to the point that my doctor gave me a nasal steroid for the rhinitis. It worked, but gave me terrible anxiety attacks. I finally picked stuffy over constantly crying/furious/scalded by adrenaline. (It turns out that I may be so sensitive to this stuff that my husband can't use it around me. Fun times.)

I'm not pleased about things sucking so much for nearly everybody I know right now, myself included.

my brain meds do that, so it's an option of being able to get things done but feeling like I'm worthless doing nothing, or doing nothing and feeling like I'm worthless and doing nothing. Most annoying shit EVER.

And good luck with the allergies. Florida is full of bizarre allergens. I still don't know what causes my contact dermatitis.

I was starting to worry. :( *comfort thoughts sent your way*
