Anyone else get shakes BAD? It’s 02:53 currently, been trying to sleep for ages but instead I’m just hot, sweaty and shaking with a high heartrate.

Other than that I feel GREAT so idk what that’s about ??? Anyone know? I feel like I make a lot of posts but I’m entirely new here and just want reassurance, sorry about that :’)

What works for you when you’re like this?
It peaks randomly but then goes if I don’t pay attention of that makes sense? Like I’m able to get it somewhat okay but when I try to sleep it comes back.
I don’t have any established rescue meds or something similar (I do have EpiPens however it seems entirely pointless to use them currently because I feel fine besides shaking and such. A month ago I would’ve used them as it was the worst I had ever been, barely alert during a shake-episode so I know I can be MUCH worse!)

Similar to a post I made a few weeks ago, I need tips on coping with flare ups but in a more rounded way.

I had a really rough day yesterday (extremely hot, had multiple panic attacks, didn’t sleep well, drank large amounts of coffee…) and I don’t really know how to cope with the MCAS side of things. I feel AWFUL and I feel like I’ve just gone backwards instead of getting better. I’m covered in hives- the most I’ve had in weeks, really warm, severely fatigued, incredibly anxious without any proper meaning.

I do drink ginger tea and eat oranges for vitamin C because I find that helps well, but I want something else in the mix to get me to a more stable level if possible, what do you think?
Literally anything no matter how random it may be I don’t care :’)

Sorry if I haven’t phrased this well I’m incredibly out of it

QUESTIONING IF IM PLURAL

Idk how long this is gonna be I tend to ramble

Just point me in the right direction and offer anything you may think will aid me here because I think im going MAD and I have no one else to off load onto.

Okay
I’ve had a few peculiar experiences where I feel not myself in a way? I find myself wanting to act in a certain manner, for example: speech changes, sometimes clothing style changes, sometimes tone changes

However because of the house I’m in (nothing bad, just a little pokey when I’m not myself) I’m not able to FULLY explore that, even with things online with my friends as I don’t want to freak them out or anything.

I have weird moments where I feel physically blurry if that makes any sense? Almost always happens with certain characters I like, which then gives me the thought of “THATS ME!!! HES ME!!!”
But still me and a pile of fuzz in the same body?

Sometimes I find myself doing something like talking to people, eating, going outside, yap yap yap
And not remembering it all?
It’s pretty immediate!
Today i went for a doctors appointment
sorta zoned out in the waiting room, still talking to others, aware of where I was but couldn’t fully reel myself in again?
Sat down in the doctors room, chatted for twenty minutes about my current incredibly stressful medical issues
Gone as soon as I walk out the door.

I talk to myself a lot too, though I don’t get answers
I mean sometimes I’ll catch myself staging a situation and unironically playing two people if that makes any sense
For a really, really silly example:

“Is the sky blue?”

“Well, YEA.”

“How’d you know?”

it’s that sorta thing but I don’t really mean for it to happen it just
Does
With anything!

There was one instance where I got shocked and sad that I wasn’t called a characters name too? Like genuinely taken aback because I was expecting to be called it
“Pyro” was the name, it sounds correct when I say it if that makes sense, same with a few other names.
It just sounds like me if that makes sense?

To (probably) throw a wrench in it all, I have autism and easily get fixated on things and characters.
Like really easily.

Plurality might not ENTIRELY be off the table though? Obviously the aforementioned things and then my childhood, 6?-15, was quite dodgy (NO I can’t remember most of my childhood just bits here and there)
The usual things like bullying, dad leaving when I was a few months to three years old? Blurry and don’t remember at all obviously, acute manipulation resulting in a lot of self blame, abandonment and sudden switch up with friends, severe paranoia, severe stress from medical problems between me and my family, depression + real bad thoughts, masking to the point of burn out and becoming physically violent as a result, having the stress of someone trying to >!commit suicide!< with me in call I REMEMBER THAT I was eight years old then

Much older now so im more aware of things and willing to figure out what is up!

I am currently being investigated for MCAS, and very likely will be diagnosed with MCAS as I have most symptoms and meet most criteria. (+ biological family has a long history of MCAS.)

It seems so pointless to keep trying currently because everything is setting me off.
I’m mentally ill and on the spectrum, it genuinely feels like everything is against me

Heat and stress are the worst ones
I have no way to cope with it as I’m autistic and IMMEDIATELY start spiralling if I’m hot and such, so I’ve never really put anything in place because it seemed so futile to try. it still does, but I recognise I NEED to do SOMETHING to help myself.

So, how do you cope?
I find indulging in my fixations helps a lot but I can’t always do that + if I get way too excited it circles back to overheating, so I was wondering if anyone had any tips and tricks to cope better?

I’m open to literally anything I just want to feel normal again I can’t keep living like this
I’m afraid to leave the house, which fucks with me BAD because I’ve always loved nature.
my only hobby is outdoors related :(

I’m a singlet that hangs around systems and it is quite interesting to learn about DID, OSDD, and what have you.

I have been quite curious on what specifically makes a person figure out they are plural and how do they feel about it?
Is it distressing, is it uncomfortable, do they not care?

Did you figure it out via research, did you hang around a system, entirely clueless and they asked “oh, are you a system too?” (I had something like that happen to me but it was autism related lol)

Please let me know!
Also forgive me if my wording is off, I’m not entirely paying attention :’)
