Trigger Warning: Job loss
I have a headache that has since turned into a migraine. It’s a pretty strong migraine, and a lot of the symptoms are making me feel very ill. This illness is making me regress to feel very childlike. I really want someone to take care of me and comfort me right now but because of my hyper independence, I’m alone.
I don’t know if it’s the migraine that is causing this depressed mood or if it’s my childhood trauma peeking out. It could also be the immense amount of stress that I’ve been dealing with lately. With the government actively trying to harm anyone and everyone and being laid off from work at one of the worst times in economic history, I have a lot to be stressed about.
With this loss of my job and no real new opportunities on the horizon yet, I’m going to probably lose my health insurance. I’m already scheduled to miss my next migraine treatment because the doctor wanted to reschedule beyond my last day of work. If I’m already getting migraines, it’s only going to spiral out of control.
I really want a hug right now.
