bruises, abgs under eyes, tiredness
« on: July 22, 2010, 11:12:07 AM »
ok so i've been noticing myself getting increasingly weird looking. i have breakouts worse than before, my whole skin looks weird and grey and red from the zits and then under my eyes it's purple and ridiculous, like zombie make up. i have to put on make up to go outside. and i'm noticing bruises on my legs and don't recall bumping that many times into stuff, and i'm tired a lot but that's due to anemia and PMS, but i dunno, i feel like i'm falling apart. :zombiefuck: i've also been gaining weight, which is NOT FUN. i'm gonna start running if i get my strength back after my period. :P there are good areas here to run. i don't wanna leave an ugly corpse.

so yeah, am i dying? i'd know if i had cancer. but is there something else? maybe it's all the alcohol. or i'm overreacting. :violin: i just don't get it. :yawn:

maybe beta blockers would help.

Beta blockers are prescription drugs, right? I suspect the alcohol is responsible for a lot of what you are describing. I also think you should go to a doctor ASAP to get checked out.  :nerd!:

beta blockers are weird bitches, they slow down your heart, so i think it's dangerous. i've once taken a little tiny bit and it made me MELLOW for hours and i wasn't sleepy. i could concentrate. it was awesome.

The drinking could be catching up with you, after all these years.

You should definitely see a doctor. You sound unhealthy.  :-\

It might be related to the anemia. But you could also be bumping into things when drunk and then not remembering it afterward.
If you've been drinking heavily for a long time, 27 is not necessarily too young for the effects to show.  :-\

You need to go to the doctor to find out. Just make an appointment.  *hands you the phone*

The bruising, tiredness, weight gain and bags under the eyes are the results of something,  just call and make an appointment.

i'll think about it. i'll try first to amend my diet to organic food and lessen the alcohol. :laugh: *laughs at the thought*

maybe it's the move, it was really rough for me. had major meltdowns and even weird dissociation at the change in surroundings. i was like...duhh this can't be real. maybe it's the stress.

Laku's taking it all well, he's gotten his hall pass and is out killing birds.
