It's H O P E L E S S !!!

..tell you what, instead of worrying yourself about a nation's or the world's problems (which aren't going to change realistically), you should go outside in this nice spring day and play some frisbee

VClypse: I understand, and you know what, it's all about being happy. While these things may be important, in the end it doesn't matter what you do, how well you do it, what you're good at, or what you're bad at. It's about being happy with yourself. So it's just about finding that place in life that finally gives you peace of mind. Good luck eitherway.

ehh... I shouldn't have read all that. Anytime I hear about any kind of health problem that I didn't know existed I start thinking too much about it and it becomes something else to be scared of.:erk: oh well.

NF:Bored as hell, even though I have a bunch of homework to do.

@mag, hyena: well it's hard to define what i really want. i feel no enthusiasm for my studies right now though the field itself remains interesting theoretically. in fact all i learn is bollox i'll never put to use, and that's what really annoys me. were i to learn a programming language that's actually being used, i would have a lot less problems, but this crap i have to do now is just plain nonsense, and something restricts me from getting that exam done.
maybe it would be better at another uni, maybe not. maybe another subject would be better, but i doubt it. just now i skimmed through available job appliances for the job i learned before studying, and while doing that, i felt that i could hande quite a number of these jobs quite easily, and that brings me back to my situation two years ago: boredom.
but at least, if i would pick up working once again, at least i'd have money and do something not totally non-sense. whereas, if i continue with studies, i have to force myself violently through some of the classes, leaving me quite disturbed and insecure in times like these.
generally i feel that i like to know about everything, in a very broad way, but not exactly deep. this applies to maths, to programming, to drumming and loads of other things. i can't dedicate myself to one subject as much as is sometimes needed at uni, and maybe that's the main problem. i need focus.
speaking of which, here i am, in a bloody internet forum... i need to get something done ffs.

Good lord man, you're my mental clone...

I'm seriously the exact same way about school... it's depressing and upsetting at times, I have to say... the only good thing now is that theres a bunch of people in my major who want me to stay, because "we can't afford to lose another 'normal' EE". Hehe. I'm normal... that should say something about my school...

@rahvin: That's horrible. I hope you're doing alright, and if there is no explanation as to why it happens, then just try take it easy and try not to worry about it, because it may lead to more problems. Take care of yourself, rahvin.

@Li San: I'll come on msn later and you can just let it all out. :)

NF: hard to explain. Good and bad things are happening. School just seems to be taking up all my time. I am no longer on my blood pressure medication, but I still have to closely monitor it with a home blood pressure machine.
 
@incendiare: thank you. today it's been shitty headache-wise, even though there was no loss of eyesight involved. i sincerely hope it's going to be a bit better during the working week. :ill:
the worst part is not the temporary blindness or the ensuing hurt, it's sitting there feeling like for some reason nothing changed since when i was fifteen and not knowing where this is going, if anywhere.
 
@rahvin: Do the painkillers actually help? Because I read that nothing can help migraines. If it doesn't go away during the week, perhaps your work field can be a bit empathetic, because the more pressure you pile up, the longer it may take to fully subside.

i remember that the last time this kind of thing had happened, back in 1993, i ended up being injected a massive dosage of painkillers on a sunday morning, right after the most devastating attack (about 2 hours of almost complete blindness, and pain as if i had been stabbed over the right eye afterwards). they actually did help, but it certainly was no simple aspirin. so at the moment i don't know, and i guess i'll just try my luck with some normal, run-off-the-mill pills.

as for my working place, it's usually quite sympathetic if i mentiong having some difficulties of any sort. on the other hand, this has happened no more than two times over a three-year period, because i'm, err, not the kind of person who mentions he's not feeling well to relatives or co-workers, or who seeks for help. the only problem is that on tuesday i have some sort of refresher course that i can't skip and will take place in an environment i know nothing about. i can't but hope i won't spend part of that training day trying to make out written words looking at them from the corner of my eye.
 
Good luck with trying to get it under control. Just try your best, because I know you'll be able to manage. You don't seem like the type to search for sympathy, but I was just curious as to what kind of working environment you are in. Stay strong.
 
Well, there are medications that work with migraine, i got one that seems to work, but my migraine doesn't involve blindness, even if it causes bad sight and awful pain to one of my eyes. Unfortunately the medications that are stronger and are supposed to always work are the ones that cause more problems to the body. Taking a bunch of regular painkillers isn't good either and with migraine they don't do much, i remember i managed to make my headache go away with that just a couple of times and one of these times i felt like if i was high for hours :ill:
 
I usually take excedrin for migraines, then have more caffeine to help. and for some reason any bad headache I have blasting death metal seems to help (anything with a pulsating drum beat like Deicide - Sacrificial Suicide or Morbid Angel - Chapel Of Ghouls, or Children Of Bodom - Hatebreeder)

don't know why though. caffeine is a good painkiller though (in huge amounts especially)

I'm feeling OK now, would be bad but I'm still feeling good from having a good time on friday.

@kat: what the bu do you do besides dwelling in caves? i'm curious.

Spelunking, naturally... well, that's not quite the truth. Hmmm, what do I do other than scout Mortiis habitats? I read, write, and dream of returning to school next month. A recluse I very well may be.
And you?
 
i'm locked up in a big, cold room with all of italy's reserves of gold, trying to deflect dwarves from stealing them. no, honestly, i come pretty close. central bank economist, that's me. and late for work, too.

is this a ritual enforced in a dictatorial state? :err:
i am entitled to my own quota, which coincidentally happens to be 100% of the total available amount.
