sway

I am in a constant state of motion sickness.

Which is a problem since I take public transit to get everywhere.

I can’t read on the bus or train anymore, which sucks because that’s my 45 minutes of peace that I use as my pleasure reading time. When I arrive at work, I feel sick, but I haven’t eaten anything, so I’m usually able to settle my stomach with a small bit of bread or apple or soy milk.
On the way home, however, it’s a huge struggle to keep myself from not vomiting. It’s gotten so bad that I have small dry heaves or even a bit of bile in the back of my throat by the end of my trip. When I get home, I do throw up. And then again before we go to bed. And again in the middle of the night.

I’m not sure if this is a side effect or not.

Work has been unbearably hot lately, and so has Chicago itself. I sweat profusely at work and have had to bring an extra shirt to change in to just in case. On my break, I take my shirt off and sit in the walk in fridges in my pants and tank-top.

I’m really hoping that this is a heat stroke thing and not a side effect thing. I don’t think I can handle this if it’s a side effect thing. But I’m scared to bring it up to my doctor because he’s quite… terse (however, he did give me all three of my mental health medications no questions asked, including the clonazapan).

N. thinks that I’m suffering from heat stroke.

 

On the plus side, I’ve lost five pounds in the past week.

 

I don’t know.
