Big stuff addressed in this journal. There will be feels and they will be plenty.

What's wrong with me?
So I finalllllly got diagnosed today! We went to the neurologist, after being passed around through a bunch of other doctors, such as the ENT and primary care and so on. I've had, for over a year, this sort of thing where I get headaches from noise. 
It's gotten so bad in the past that I've literally been on the floor in an uncontrollable bawling fit from the pain. And I'd like to consider myself a tough person. My headaches, they can make me completely immobile. On many an occasion my family has had to leave someplace because it was too loud for me. At first we had no idea what was causing it, then we thought it was hyperacuity, then we thought it was a malformed inner ear, and finally they had ruled out just about everything but my brain. 
Turns out, I have a bad combination of mostly migraines onset by noise with a bit of ADD thrown in there. It's not as bad as my brother's, but that's probably just because I'm better at managing myself, we don't know.
Either way, I'm taking four different medications, one of which is taken twice a day while the others are once a day(though one is a HUGE dose), and tomorrow I'm starting a fifth drug that I think is once a day. Ingest ALL THE MEDS!!! XD
Either way, I already feel a bit better than normal. It has gotten to that point where I was taking painkillers every single day and sometimes many times a day just to manage it. I haven't yet had to take a painkiller today, I've got a bit of a headache but it's not so bad that I'm crying or feel like I need to take painkillers. Good signs. Okay maybe it is a bit of a headache, and maybe it's not so bad because I got to skip several classes today, but I'm still going to avoid painkillers as much as I can. They aren't good for me and I know that.
I'm just so glad we finally got to the goddamned bottom of this, and I hope all these medications work. They're $50(with discount!) for a three month supply |D

School
A main contributor to that headache problem, also to my lack of activity on this site. I'll be out of Calculus next week though, and I plan on cancelling taking Calc 2 because I don't need the math. Hell I'm gonna fail Calc 1 anyways. The job I'm going into, which I am pretty much positive I'm getting into, doesn't care about degrees. So I'm not even going to get a college degree like I'd planned to.
Though I'd like to take an art class, because that's something I am interested in learning, regardless of my career track (which does involve art so win-win). Going with the quote, "Put all your eggs in one basket and guard that basket furiously." Yep.

Art stuff
Well, I plan on drawing this weekend when I get the time... But I do need to study for my Calc finals on monday. I'll be doing that too.
For now, art times though. Go check out my special deals ^^ fav.me/d6waz1m
