Hello World!

Hello people!
Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not really a walrus. That's just another nickname friends decided to give me. My life is not very interesting, I don't travel the world or cook amazing food or whatever else people usually blog about. I'm just living my life, trying to get a decent education, hoping to accomplish my dreams and battling multiple things along the way. Have fun following my journey and my mediocre day to day life!

Another update

Heya, I'm back after a long period of silence. In the meantime, I went back to my old GP (the one that said she had done everything) because I had another episode of neurological symptoms around Easter. This lead to a huge fight with my family, because there was this endless discussion of going to hospital yes or no. Eventually I ended up in the ER in a hospital that was 45 min away from where I live. It was rather traumatizing, let me just say: unfriendly doctors/staff, being treated as if I was faking everything and being discharged with the recommendation to see a psychologist because of "academic stress". Lol I was out of school for 5 months at that point. At least I had nice roommates and a few days away from my family. Then, later in April, I had an appointment with a specialist neurology clinic who basically did nothing than talk to me and tell me "well you for sure have something but we have no idea what" and sent me home. I was supposed to go back the...

"Maybe it's all in your head"

I heard this sentence too many times. Hearing it one time is one time too many already. I think I've been told this by doctors at least 3 times. If I remember correctly, the first time when I was 11 years old. ELEVEN. Let that sink in. I had been admitted to hospital because I didn't tolerate physical activity very well, I kept fainting during PE class or after climbing too many stairs at school (didn't have to at home as we lived on the ground floor). I was constantly out of breath, I had fevers on and off, my blood pressure was pretty low and I felt like absolute crap. The hospital made me stay for a week, running a few different tests only for a young doctor fresh from university to tell me "maybe it's all in your head". My mom later told me I looked at the doctor as if I wanted to kill her. Well, my symptoms continued for some more time until my mother decided to get me seen by a lung specialist and tadaaaa, turns out I have asthma (and a nasty infection a...

Summertime

Hey, so it's getting really hot over here lately (thanks climate change) and I seriously can't cope. I live in the apartment directly under the roof and nothing is isolated whatsoever so it gets as hot as 40°C in my apartment. And I have terrible heat intolerance mostly because I barely sweat. I try everything to keep cool, like airing out the rooms in the early morning when it's still cold and at night, I keep my curtains closed, I hang damp cloths everywhere, I have my fan running...but nothing helps. I don't have any other place to stay so I suppose I'm stuck here almost dying from the heat (my cat also hates it). Oh well, hopefully my landlords (aka my shitty family) will put in some isolation soon. As they say it's not even that expensive they just don't wanna do it for some reason. Well, screw them, I might end up doing it myself during winter break. Anyways, I've done a lot of thinking lately on what to do with my life and how to do it...I'm...
