Going to ER

It’s 7:19am so no sadly

No books to read? No games to play on your phone?

No books. I guess I could try playing games

Don’t laugh, but I keep some colouring pages around. Also pencil crayons and normal kid crayons. I find sometimes when I’m wound up it helps to just carefully colour something and have a cup of tea. That bit of work with the hands tames the brain and gets it to stop panicking for me.

Saying this as a 53 year old dude.

How to calm down?

You said you were worried about choking when you eat. Can’t you just eat soft stuff like mashed potatoes and jello? Seems like that would be better than a feeding tube.

I tried mashed potatoes but couldn’t swallow it

I was once on a psychiatric medicine that made swallowing difficult. Like I couldn’t physically activate the swallowing reflex. It’s a terrible thing, I got off that medicine really fast.

I feel bad about your situation, I hope you have family to spend time with you.

The medicine, might be causing you not to swallow. I think that because you can’t even swallow water.

Did you research the side effects?

Which medicine?

What medicines are you taking?

Doesnt sound fun, hope you get help
