My drivers license expired like 2 days ago and my new one has not come yet. I’m going downtown tomorrow to some bars, will they let me in with my passport card?
I have extremely painful period cramps. I can’t stand up or speak or move when it hits and it is the most pain I have ever experienced. My mom has had to do labor massages on me at times and she believes I’m experiencing child birth equivalent pains.
Painkillers do absolutely nothing for me and I am genuinely scared of my period because there is nothing i can do to get rid of the pain, and I just have to wait for it to end.
Doctors just don’t know anything about this stuff and I’m told “it’s just cramps” by everyone in my life. I don’t know what to do
The only thing I can imagine doing something would be being able to take pain killing opioids, I took them once to recover from surgery and the pain relief was so affective.
Since period cramps aren’t taken very seriously I kind of doubt it’s possible to get a prescription for that, but if anyone has been able to get that, can you please tell me what kind of doctor you went to and how you got the right help?
My friends have told me I have strange behaviors, or they are confused by them. The things they find strange, I question if I’m being controlled to do.
For example,
I recently drove an hour and a half to a river at 4 in the morning by myself for no reason. I did not think anything of this other than I felt the need or want to go.
The next day I mentioned it to my friends and they thought this was extremely strange of me to do.
I don’t know why I went, I enjoy being by myself but I understand how it is odd.
Another time recently I woke up at 3 in the morning and went on a walk in the pitch dark. Once again, I do not know why I did this I just did without thought. My therapist was visibly confused when I told her about it, and I couldn’t find an answer to why I did it.
I feel like these things I do are controlled sometimes, like something is making me do it, but I also have enough awareness to question those thoughts.
Is this a common thing for people with schizophrenia?
Would anyone advise me to bring this up to my psychiatrist?
