Thanks, not how I thought it would go… now to wait for the results

I am so happy with all the expanded choices.

Absolutely, while I do like long robes, the Edenmorn Bolero of Scouting is one of my absolute favorite glam pieces. And I can finally use it on DNC and RDM.

Salamence is my go to pseudo legendary. I just love the big lug.

Lucario was also a partner of mine through Kalos and couldn’t miss out on our adventures.

Froslass is a new addition, but I think she fits right in.

Delphox is my original XY starter, so couldn‘t miss out on this adventure.

Meganium, my Johto beloved, had to pick my little grass bean.

Scolipede has been a big fav of mine since fifth gen, and also journied with me through Kalos the first time.

Thanks all for letting me rant about my experiences the past few years regarding me and my health. It is a journey of self discovery and acceptance and I still have a way to go. But we are getting there.

I am not lazy. I am not forgetful. I am not too sensitive. I am not faking it. I am not irresponsible.

I am more than my conditions.

Creative. Smart. Insightful. Empathetic. Loving. A dreamer.

I am Mist, and my story has more chapters yet to be written.

But I am not done fighting. There is too much to love, to live for, to see and create. My friends have been my support and without them I wouldn’t have come this far.

For them. For me.

I will fight, not to survive, but to live a life worth living.

I am honestly tired. Tired and exhausted. Of every time I feel like I got on top of everything, to be knocked down again.

Hayfever, ADHD, and now migraines. These are never going away. I am going to deal with these conditions for life.

Dragged my ass back to the doctor yesterday.

Episodic migraines is the most probably answer to what I am experiencing.

The doctor looked at me weirdly when I said I usually just power through them. Just pop an ibuprofen to dull the pain and go. Like I have any other choice?

I couldn’t move my head without it spinning and hurting. I fell asleep during the day, involuntarily. Walking to the store to grab pain meds hurt, and I was drenched with sweat afterward. It is october, it is cold out. I was only wearing a shirt and a thin vest.

So yeah, fun times.

This will drive regular people nuts, let alone a neurospicy doofus like me.

I have been having more frequent and more severe headaches for years now. This year a headache centered around the eye was added. Stabbing pain, teary eye, the works.

This week it hit again and I had to call out.

So, allergies managed, ADHD medicated, a better, more interesting job.

You’d think everything is all better now right?

Nope, too easy. Currently in a building renovation that started in april and will last until january. Stress, so much stress, and noise. Everyday. 8 hours, starting at 6am.

This despite me asking for help, and to reduce extra responsibilities that just sucked me empty. I left that place and started a new job. One where I fit a lot better personality wise and where they agreed to see if I could grow into a half IT role.

They have gotten a lot, lot better now at helping me deal and organize shit and understanding how my brain is different, so aside from some stumbling at the start we are good now.

My workspace was no longer a fit for me due to a shift in management and I got into a second burnout.
