Say anything O is for octopus

Hey y’all I hope your day has been okay.

I’m home from work, got myself a pizza bowl from the Marco’s next door after I locked up. Got it with chicken, bacon, tomatoes and spinach. It’s good.

It was hot here today, 92°F this afternoon. It’s probably around 80° now. I’m in my bedroom with the door closed so the window ac can cool this room down more effectively. It’s warmer in the living room.

No, my grandpa died in 2022. It started after I had a massive panic attack after smoking laced marijuana at the end of high school. I dont worry about heart attacks all the time. I do worry about it a decent amount of time. No need to say sorry for asking questions, I appreciate you trying to help Catman.

Just took .5mg clonzapam. Thankful for medication as a tool for my symptoms.

I just began thinking and worrying about heart attacks. I got the results of my recent lipid panel back, and my “bad” cholesterol (LDL) is high. I’ve never had that issue. Well, my HDL (good cholesterol) is also high, though high HDL is a good thing. Also, I’ll turn 46 years old in October.

I also had a panic attack after smoking laced marijuana and developed the same hwalth anxiety about heart attacks. It truly felt like i had one and then i started believing i had died from it. My health anxiety subsided ahen i started confronting it and learning more about the difference between typical heart attacks and typical panic attacks.

What’s up night crew??

I am finally back home from being at my moms. I had to take a giant massive dump when I finally came home. I hate the toilette my mom has. I’m still gassy but finally feel somewhat relieved.

I’m trying to find new music but can’t find anything that’s good.

How are you guys doing?

Small amounts of stress is healthy they say.

it keeps me grounded in small amounts but it more oft than not feels like it’s too intense. i kinda wish i was a happier person but life experiences considered i was always gonna turn out like i did. conquering self-hatred feels diabolical

I’m also on olanzapine and have started to fall asleep during the day.

I bet it’s the caffeine causing you to feel stressed.

i feel like it adds to it, yeah. i don’t think it helps my likely CPTSD/possible BPD at all either.

i’ll go tomorrow without caffeine to see how i do, i think. i hope i’m less pressed but i feel like it’s a universal constant that i’m not having a good time, ahah

If you quit caffeine cold turkey you’ll have withdrawals. Headaches, being tired and cranky etc…

@Moon @TheCanuk I once smoked cannabis that, unbeknownst to me, was laced with PCP.

For y’all who don’t know, PCP is angel dust, phencyclidine.

I drove 45 minutes home like that, freaking out the whole way. It was bad, and very dangerous. I ended up in an ER that night, where they drug tested me, of course, but never told me the results.

I found out at my next psychiatrist appointment that I had tested positive for PCP. That :poop: is wicked.

In my country they sell something called spice. It’s genetically engineered weed where they change the THC molecule. It comes with a lot of bad side-effects.

Yeah most people around here called it “K2.” Say what you will about real cannabis, it’s nowhere near as bad for you as K2/spice. That stuff is bad news. Idk if it’s even still sold in Michigan, hope not.
