I'm struggling at work. I have been having migraines more frequently, like almost every day I wake up and my head is pinging. It feels like a "ping" of pain. Ping ping ping. Throbbing and stabbing. I felt like this yesterday and I went to work anyway, I figured that I would be alright as long as the music wasn't too loud. The music was fine but my head just kept getting worse. Tears filled my eyes and it was embarrassing because it just looked like I was crying. I ended up going home on my lunch break. It is hard to accept this new job where they are not feeling a loss when someone has to go home early. They were ahead of things and it was alright for me to go home early. I still can't shake the guilty feeling like I should be at least trying to go to work today.
I would love to be outside today and be active but I feel like that would push the pings into a full blown migraine. It sucks. I just want to move and be active. I would also love to know what is causing the migraines so maybe I could stop doing whatever it is that is causing them. Also I would love to have some sort of financial help like disability, but I know that you need to have an official diagnosis for that and all I have are head pains that doctors like to throw pills at. I would love to be able to work but I would also love to do that without head pains.
I am getting a new laptop tomorrow. It's a Dell Inspiron 7000 with a 14 inch touch screen. I am excited but also I hate setting up new devices and I know it's going to be a frustrating experience. I already miss my current laptop, it's a nice small little Dell. I like that the one I have has a screen that can fold all the way back, so it can be like a tablet. It's small and easy to carry and move. It's got all my stickers. I know I'll eventually love the new laptop, but I am already missing my current one!
