For a decent chunk of my early 20s i had to take amitriptyline a couple of hours before bedtime to prevent migraines. It also makes you sleep on cloud 9. I was on call at nights and there was no snapping out of the sleep pull, thats the only scenario I can think that it may not help.
Talk to a doctor about it. I have had a couple of brain scans and don’t have anything up there that looks bad. It just happens to some people.
Yeah I think it went away at the start of my 30s. Definitely glad it’s not a worry anymore.
I can still get stress or dehydration headaches, but no constant small one that breaks through to eye stabbing with my heartbeat.
I have heard it is common for them to go away by 30s.
I tried to report to ATT that one of their junction boxes with thousands of splices had been obliterated at an intersection i was near. Somehow none of the wires were broken, just laying on the ground. I spent a good 15 minutes being transferred around only to be told if I didn’t have an account number they couldn’t do anything.
I googled for contact info for downed lines and the numbers had been changed to general support numbers.
Super frustrating
While I understand your perspective, it’s worth noting that reactions to offenses, like many emotions, exist on a spectrum. Some individuals might experience deep hurt from a comment that others brush off with ease. While we can’t always control our immediate emotional responses, we can cultivate resilience and perspective over time. Claiming that no one would choose to be offended might oversimplify a complex web of human emotions and social dynamics. Some might lean into being offended as a defense mechanism or to further a personal or societal narrative. Emotions are complex, and so are the reasons behind them.
If I really like a book or series and there are parts that are very dry to me, I just skim to see if there’s anything I might miss. I rarely have to backtrack.
My best advice is to avoid people who yell at you. You can express your boundaries and let whoever know how that makes you feel, and what you can’t accept.
If the yelling isn’t retaliatory from some bad thing you did to them, you could also ask them if they are okay.
