I miss when packages took like a week to arrive and there was no overnight postage nonsense (unless you paid a lot for it). Now it is industry standard and I need to be ready to get my package the next day, like...I need at least few buffer days to prepare emotionally.

Also the tracking system is not great and telling me it can come between 8-16 is NOT HELPFUL.

I an up at 8 only in case it arrives now.
Madness, I tell ya.

Sometimes when I tell people that I am an #Absolutist (a person who doesn't do drugs, drink or eat anything with alcohol in it, and doesn't smoke any tobacco or such products) people react weirdly.

For example some doctors have been borderline expressing that they think I am lying since I am fat and have to have more vices than food and very still life style.

Almost like they can't believe someone could live life like this in #Finland where the national past time is #Alcoholism.

The company that rents us this apartment is pretending that "people want to have water consumption measuring devices in their homes" so they have been slowly installing them in.

We already pay for the water per person.

The water is also more expensive this year because water companies got upset that people have been SAVING WATER AND USING IT LESS IN THIS CITY.

Nobody wants to be micromanaged this bad.

We will attempt to move before they get here.

I masked today in doctor's office, like I always do indoors in general. But today it prompted two very loud individuals to converse how they dont need to mask unless they are feeling awful. (Other whom had cough, fever, and couldn't go to work because of those and was told to go to doctor's for a note and test!!)

Of course they just know if they are sick, it's not like you can get mild symptoms or be asymptomatic AND SPREAD Covid to those who could die!

Usually I say "don't do what I just did" but this time I an proud to ask everyone who just had a top surgery to be just like me - if your wound suddenly oozes puss, call healthcare provider and get to ER for antibiotics ASAP. When caught early, there wont likely be any issues with healing and they can remove any unmelted stitches as you go. <3

I am okay, newly bandaged, unstitched, and medicated and getting good after care -and still very much on my sickleave.

Headache has turned into a tension migraine, intense nausea, and exhaustion so I'll be finishing for the day.
More work tomorrow after remote meeting with a surgeon (hopefully I'll receive good news and will be able to afford the surgery in April)...

People have suggested to me many, many times that I should become someone who goes to talk to people about my experiences in life as someone with a sleep disorder and ADHD, and 10 years as a fostercare kid.

Every single one of those people missed the point where I explained to them that I have barely enough energy for life's basic functions, so doing that kind of job is not physically possible for me.

My PC is breaking down.

I can't believe my PC is breaking down today.

If this goddamn machine doesn't keep it's shit together for at least one more year, I need to do some fucking dark magic to get a new one...which means I just might not afford freedom afterall.

I...can't believe it would start warning that it is dying today of all days....

Unbelievable.

I am so tired.

So tired.

It is always "fun" to have medication that is supposed to make you sleepy and deepen your dream stages - and thus is taken before bedtime....and realize your body reacts to it paradoxically so you need tonstart taking in the morning instead and wonder if your doctor is going to be happy with you when you inform them.

Just like how stimulants calm down the endless mass of mental hyperactivity instead of making me a durasel bunny - this fucked my sleep.

The ackward moment when you wake up in the morning feeling fine when last night you thought you may have been having serious heart issues, but now can recognize it was stress palpatations that felt very strong only because I was severely sleep deprived...

So today might suck a bit, what comes to energy. (:*

Trying to exercise for dopamine while stressed about if we can solve our loan issues before all April surgery dates are filled (next week).

I was asked today why I haven't been to any support things during this time that i have been diagnosed (almost 5 years now, I think).

And I said I did try to get into them, was re-tested for what would I need help with, but my problems were hard to pin down due to them being so wide, and widely supported by my own survivalt actics, they told me they couldn't send me there.

Now I have aged out of those support things.

I am officall non-binary now. Hopefully Finland will add the third option to gender markers soon so I can have it properly recognized in all situations. (:

My freedom costs 5890€, plus travelling costs for two, and maybe overnight stay at a hotel if anesthesia makes me sick.

I am one step closer to it, and IF (big IF) bank agrees to give me a loan... I could claim my dysphoria-free life next month already. Or in April.

I am shaking and trying not to be too hopeful, in case the last steps end up collapsing under me.

Going to try to work this evening after super early nap. Feeling like a corpse today from having so bad sleep at night....starting new medication is not fun. ):

It is so weird how many parents have adopted this mindset that it is normal that your kids keep constantly bringing in sicknesses from kindergarden and school.

No, it is not normal that parents let their sick kids to come to these spaces to infect your kids. It is not normal that measels, rubella, covid, flu, infuluenza, and foot-mouth-and-hand disease are now common.

When I was a kid, I barely ever got sick - because parents would keep sick kids AT HOME.

You can do this too.

It's funny how tonight I can't sleep because my hips and legs are in pain, my gut hurts a ton fron endo, and I am not allowed to take any painkillers before the surgery. (^_^)*

I definitely over-did everything today trying to get everything ready for when we come back from tomorrow's battle.

3.5 hours to my wake up time...

My day began with my brain trying to both inplode and explode at the same time. Which, for the record, is not great.

So I had a nap just so I could manage to do the dishes. That "little" task took all life out of me again.

Abled people just don't know.
