This week is like being 14. Migraine out of fucking nowhere? Wait- that's not true. I totally should have been expecting this. If gluten can be a hidden migraine trigger, and as much as I was looking forward to never having another migraine now that I'd gone gluten-free, in hindsight it makes perfect sense that gluten exposure would have migraine ( Read more... )

It does suck a bit, but this is what it's like when you restructure yourself. I knew what I was getting into. I had reached a plateau last year that I couldn't grow beyond without tearing down and redesigning some of myself, but the things I've learned about how people and cognition and neurology work - well, I still know those things. I can go back and examine that part of my life now, and have it be okay because I have resources now (you not the least of them) that I didn't have then ( ... )

I'm glad it wasn't much trouble, but honestly the worst thing about doing that is how stupid it makes me feel. Everything is super-extra-ditzy this week. I feel like a nitwit.

I don't usually get hormonal/emotional like this except the couple of days right before my period and then getting aggressive during it.

Speaking of aggressive: take breaks. Demand he take them as well. He won't, but if you try to get him to then he'll realize that he should be tired and it keeps his sense of other people's limitations closer to reality. We are not machines!
