I'm sorry for your loss, comrade

Show

I was visited by the executive function fairy and managed to do the Thing. Haven't had a break for 3 straight days because I knew I had to wring that fairy for all I had. I'm done now, I release the fairy here in hopes another comrade will capture it. Wishing all of you a wonderful rest of your week. You're all amazing for being here.

It's okay! I will try that next time

Oh! That makes more sense, only 2 people were showing up in chat for me and one was responding to messages I couldn't see. No need for apologies either, it ws fun running around in the background. Thanks for adding me so fast!

So um, I joined but forgot there was a vc. I don't have an element account yet so I could only see chats in-game. I had fun wandering around while I could though, thank you so much for hosting and hopefully I can participate more next time. I'd love to be added to the ping list too, if there's still room.

First off, getting-assessed buddies! I feel the mix of emotions, it's such a roller coaster. Hope everything ends up how you want it and you get some answers. I'm excited for you!

I think that's the same one I'll be doing, but the setup is a little different; I have an immediate follow up session after the assessment to ask questions and talk things through, then 48 hrs after I get the yes/no answer an official written diagnosis will be provided. I really want to make an actual post about my experience once it's over, because I wouldn't have found this place without help from a fellow Hexbear after months of searching. This community that's been so amazingly supportive and kind.

Thank you!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news

The West Wing is the best course of action and the real world that awaited the world one person at a time and patience and the real world that awaited you are looked at with a neurotypical joke about the insane temperature records set the last few years were the talos principle of the pandemic in the neighborhood and the real world that awaited the world one person at a time and patience and the real world that awaited you are looked at with a mix of disdain and derision and the real world that awaited is not having fun with the label of the pandemic and the depression was so difficult about literally everything in my life as well as the other day I have been different from covid and I don't want to be normal because it equates to self-harm for me.

Amazing.

I actually thought he was already dead...

I scheduled my Autism assessment for next week, got no one to tell and I can't focus on anything else

Thanks for the explanation. Still looks freaky as hell with the too-many-fingered hands spawning from her irises. Gives me the creeps.

Wishing you a safe and quick recovery comrade, take care of yourself

They're gonna make so much money selling the merch.

This explains that Onion article. Also the eyes freak me out.

Excellent copypasta

Not a doctor, got family with these issues though so I'll share that experience:

Start by keeping a food diary with the stuff you eat and any immediate symptoms/feelings etc for like 2-4 weeks when you first start changing parts of your diet. The idea is to identify foods that cause problems, since everyone's body is different and some recommendations won't work for everyone. Some of the most obvious things to start whittling out of your diet are sugar, white flour, alcohol, caffeine, and tobacco. Don't overeat; if you're used to 3 meals a day, shrink the meal sizes and add healthy snacks in between. Try to keep snacks nearby at all times. Careful with fruit and anything fruit-derived as they have more sugar than you might realize. Whole grains and veggies, legumes, nuts and seeds are usually safe bets, but again it depends on the individual. It's hard to find a good balance sometimes so use your diet diary as a starting point. Definitely consult your doctor before making any big changes. Hope this helps, and that you feel better comrade.
