Heck.
Because of my heart conditions I have to drink a lot of water a day. And I am a person who is very much not fond of the taste of water unless it has ice cubes in it, and even then I have a hard time forcing myself to drink it. I have to be careful of making sure that I drink enough, and winter can be a particularly bad time if I'm not careful.
Had to go to a family get together for a good portion of today which didn't help because I didn't drink any water while I was there and I have social anxiety and all that jazz.
Got home and almost passed out. That was probably the closest I've ever gotten without passing out, and I stayed on the ground for a little over 45 mins. I unfortunately did freak out which probably didn't help, but they managed to get our dog to help with some dpt. That was a big help, and I'm surprised he stayed as long as he did considering he isn't a service doggo.
I always get a migraine after almost passing out, and gosh I somehow forgot how bad they can be. And then comes the 'would it be better to just pass out'? But I don't think it would because there's a higher chance I'll panic after waking up from passing out and I'll get a migraine anyway and I'll feel off for a while. Especially these days. The last time I passed out I was outside for a long time in the heat, I stayed out for a while, freaked out and because there had been emts already there and I was bad off they had to take me to the emergency room. I usually don't go when I pass out, but they were concerned enough that they thought I should go. But I felt like absolute rubbish for about three weeks afterwards, and that's not an exaggeration. I'm not sure what was different, but I had a migraine for five days, and then after that I just felt listless and tired and cold and unsteady and weak. Fell over once and had a nice bruise on my hip.
I'd rather have a migraine for a few days, I think. At least we never go to a New Year's party.
*sigh*
Everything else I have to do will suffer. Slower, sleepy, less perceptive. Forgetful. Rambling. I've been pretty good at keeping up with drinking water recently... heaven forbid I forget for one day...
We're gonna try to get our doggo to sleep with me, but he's like a bird in that he has a very set schedule and doesn't like it changing. Doesn't like sleeping in a different room. Oh well.
Drink water, kiddos.
Why hello there.
I'm absolute trash and that's basically all you need to know about me.
