So when I have an anxious day I find that my brain processes things too quickly. So sensory overload is often a result of that. I get upset, and irksome, and put-out because nothing is right and nothing can be right until I've had a little fit inside. So how can I deal with it? Exerxcise helps, crying helps, pressured hugs help, and in general, warmth and pressure. Separating me from my environment that creates these conditions is really a good way to help stop the buzzing in my brain.
Sometimes.
Then there are the migraines.
Sometimes they last for what seems like an eternity, then there are other times where I simply can't afford another moment, rush home, and go to sleep. Sleep, silence and darkness usually help to relieve me. I've started to get migraines again, there have been two this week so far, a little one on Monday, and another one today. What is causing them? I wonder. I'm sure that there is a perfectly good explination as to why they have been so frequent this year and not for others, I shouldn't worry about it, and I shouldn't worry anybody else about it.
But still, research is inconclusive.
I do know however how to anticipate that a migraine is happening. I have been able to recognize the symptoms of an oncoming "episode" and what comes along with it.
Sounds start to sound tinny, and colors seem to be a a bit more defined against each other. but other things get fuzzy, like response time, and comprehension, also my ability to compose coherent sentences and conversations tends to go out the window when I'm starting to feel "fuzzy". But today, I got coffee, which tends to stop migraines mostly.
For the record, I hate coffee.
But I wanted to thank the baristas at the star-bucks in the U-Village mall right next to the Crate&Barrell store for putting up with me when I couldn't even think straight enough to remember to ask for soymilk before she made it the first time...
I'm sorry!
I know how picky all of your cusotmers are!
My roommate works for that corporation.
I get to hear about all the picky people.
I hate being picky, and making life harder for the people whose job it is to help me.
I am a hot-tea person...
Not a coffee drinker.
So thank you again for serving me coffee!
You rock!
I'm sure that I was trying to write a more interesting post, but I seem to have gotten side-tracked. I wonder who else is as destracted as I am...
