Re: Feeling lost and depressed
Hey @Fluttershy1 Wearing a monitor would be difficult.
I hope it shows your team that your heart is doing fine.
A worry, and physically invasive.
Still you managed to post that jam joke. Loved it.
Glad @Jynx was here for chat.
Hang in there.

Re: Feeling lost and depressed
I have sensory processing issues too @Fluttershy1 (not formally diagnosed, but it's kinda just part of the funky world of being neurodiverse lol). I really empathise, it makes it so hard to focus on literally anything else. You should see me get really agitated whenever I have even a single irritating clothing tag touching my body!
Three more days - you're already past halfway, you can do it! And as @Appleblossom says, hopefully that means you will be able to get a clean bill of health for your precious ticker 💜

Re: Feeling lost and depressed
Yeah I guess @Jynx - we are a special kind of neurodiverse people!
I think aswell it doesn’t help either because I’m very fussy about textures aswell, I have a meltdown or I get weirded out by the texture, what’s for dinner tonight?
im trying to soothe myself

Re: Feeling lost and depressed
I am having chicken soup, pretty tasty @Fluttershy1 what about you?
Yep yep texture is a HUGE one for me. Itchy tags, anything sticky, or like being tickled by a cat hair lol.

Re: Feeling lost and depressed
@Fluttershy1 oh yeah food texture is a whole other world of many nopes. I can't handle unexpected crunchiness, the texture of meat, and really struggle with fruit that's too soft too.
OMG that sounds soooo delicious! Might have to make myself some ravioli once I've gotten through all the soup I have left haha.

Re: Feeling lost and depressed
@Fluttershy1 crunchies definitely have a particularly odd texture, I don't mind them but they're not my fav, can understand why they would be very offputting. So interesting how different ND folks can have such different experiences hey!
I'll be around until 10pm tonight. You winning at Mario Kart?
