heyy all i apologise i didnt do the checkin last week i wasnt too well so ty Affy for covering for me


How is everyone doing this week?
Whats been going well for you recently?
what hasnt been going well ?
I've been feeling sick. Hubby has a cold, so maybe it's the start of that although I don't have any cold-specific symptoms.
Stuggling to do things while feeling like this.
@AffyAvo awww no it must be cold/flu season starting hope you get better soon
I'm unsure if aspergers is enough-of-a-real disability to qualify, but it's, realistically, the only one I have. If there is a more appropriate place, please let me know and I'll gladly leave. Cheers!
@ZafarYounis You're in the right place!
There is an ASD forum section outside of disability support, but it's not a full subcommunity and ASD related discussions are sometimes held in the disability support room.
Head and Back pain this week has been so bad for me Ugh . I want a new body and yes a new head lol
@Tyedyedbutterfly65 ouch any sort of pain sux i hear you
So those cold symptoms finally showed up this evening, just nasal conjestion and sneezing. I'm actually feeling better today than the last few days. I'm a little concerned as I did exercise this morning too, so it's weird I don't feel pretty horrible. As long as this isn't some odd calm before the storm type thing I'll take it!
@AffyAvo Hope you are feeling better!!! Here where I live everything under the sun is going around .
@AffyAvo Aw colds stink. I hope you fight this off!
@HydrangeaField @CaringBrit @Tyedyedbutterfly65
Thanks
Unfortunately I'm feeling worse, but with a cold it's what I expect. I'm just hoping to get through it without serious problems now.
I did something really stupid. I tried to wean from my migraine med by myself and got a migraine that lasted three days
@Ayla31 Oh no! Maybe a pharmacist can help you out if you can't talk to your doctor right away.
I don't know if itsi just coincidence or that my iron supplements are starting to work (ive been taking them every other day for a week I think), but ive had a surprising lack of strong pain and discomfort. I haven't been as fatigued (though its still present), I'm more active and attentive to work, and I haven't even had overwhelming trouble with anxiety and depression like I usually do at this time. I won't jump to conclusions, but I'm also going to take advantage of this while I can.
@HydrangeaField I hope that change sticks around!
it's been a real Roller Coaster Ride of a week for me~! i'm exhausted, and so feeling a little antisocial.

@GustyOne4U that picture is super pretty what type of flower is it

@GustyOne4U never seen them before super beautiful
@CaringBrit
they are often sold as a single bulb in a small pot, around the end of the year, maybe you didn't see them, and maybe you didn't recognize them without their leaves
