loool i get that retarded feeling .. burning sensations on head, tension, sleep disruption (occasionally) defiantly in the middle of a "its a brain tumor im telling you!" faze daily headaches that last most of the day,stabbing ear pains, dark circles around my eyes ect. i feel like losing my mind but refuse to take prescriptions ...sometimes i try to meditate to clear my mind but the pains usually linger. Drink some green tea or walk the dog. i hate when you tell a doctor one thing then they tell you another based on your look and a description you stuttered out amist a slight tremble or panicky state when if you could only articulate it all into one condition they'd understand its an underlying condition they've failed to recognize.. the way i see it is everyone has there bad days but ultimately time will kill us all so the best thing we can do is spit in its face and say give me your best shot. mind over mater even if we are losing our minds and to the rest of the world this doesn't seem to matter.. this makes me wanna quit my job at times .. im 20 years old, loblaws night clerk.
