@houseflippersim Not Dec 14 according to your map. :(

@Qantas I’ve been defending you but today you delayed my flight twice before bumping me off it, assuring me it’s only 10 minutes later - this was a lie. The new flight has been delayed multiple times because it’s “still being cleaned”. No one at the gate believes you.

@emgntdivergence The idea of ‘stopping’ causes a feeling like the beginning of a panic attack. I don’t know how to relax and exist in my own head at the same time.

@girlgerms Heartbreaking is definitely a word that applies. I can’t find a better one.

@davidgaider @Mudavaye It made me cry. Which I did not appreciate at the time but it’s been a rough year. Heartachingly beautiful work as always.

[Geri @miss_geri]

@bulletproofling Congratulations! That’s a beautiful name.

@AutisticCoach_ Yep. I got Botox injections in my jaw to help. It kind of has, but I’ve been told it can take a few rounds before it reduces the muscle strength enough to be really effective.
I wake up with my face sore from clenching in my sleep.

@dinosaurcouch I could do without those tears thanks.

@AuDHDtherapist I hadn’t heard this, but it seems odd. It works for my bipolar. No impact for the Au stuff. I’ll have to look up the research.

@bulletproofling We got 8 years out of our last couch; does $440 a year put the cost in a different perspective? I’d say if you really like it and can afford it, it sounds reasonable to me!

[Geri @miss_geri]

@ErinEARoss Thanks for the reminder about why I love this field.

@Peter_Fitz Where are the characters in Aus sport? Take a look at the women’s game - Grace Harris is as much of a character as you’ll ever see!

[Geri @miss_geri]

@FestivityMN @hmm_cook This is also me. I am also wondering these things. Thank you for asking.

[Geri @miss_geri]

@bulletproofling I found the answer - not have a mental health condition. -_-

[Geri @miss_geri]

@bulletproofling It puts me at 52, and I thought that by most people’s standards I’m doing pretty damn well. What the hell do you need to do to get to the top of that rating?

[Geri @miss_geri]

@nnuglig @WhatTheADHD This is an adhd thing? Dammit.

[Geri @miss_geri]

@WhatTheADHD I just call that bored. Is that not boredom? Internal hyperactivity you say? Huh. (And all the replies about the food equivalent!)
Why did it take 37 years for someone to spot this diagnosis for me? Arrrghhhh.

[Geri @miss_geri]

@mrbenjaminlaw I work with colleagues across the country, and NZ too (who went to daylight savings last weekend). The time differences are doing my head in.

[Geri @miss_geri]

@keraoregan @avclayton @adhdjesse OMG. I have just spent a month ranting about the lack of processes and documentation in my new role. Fortunately it’s an internal secondment and I have the go ahead to make my own, but having a reason for why this bothers me so much is mind-blowing.

[Geri @miss_geri]

Well, shit. I wish I knew about this 15 years ago. My work life and personal life would have been a hell of a lot different. Also, thank you science for my medication.
