Today was ALMOST bad.

Today was ALMOST bad.

Tldr:  Shaun saved the day and I didn't get a migraine.

I woke up too late to go to the Student Health Center - again. I called to see if I could make an appointment for this afternoon, but they were booked up. Tomorrow afternoon wouldn't work for me because I have classes during their appointment hours. Since I don't have class until late tomorrow I'm hoping I can make it to be seen as a walk-in in the morning. That depends entirely on how much sleep I get, though. I'm not feeling terrible health-wise, but I do still think something is going on.

I woke up with a tension headache today. I immediately took medication in an attempt to keep it from triggering a migraine. I went to class and then afterwards rolled up in a ball on a secluded chair in the hallway. After sitting with myself to see if I was going to get better or worse, I called Shaun. Thankfully, he'd just gotten off work so I asked him to meet me at Baja. We ate and I felt a little better. Then he went with me to the library to find some books to use for my homework tonight. Then we came home and I napped for a bit.

I feel better than I have all day, although not great still. I'm about to do my homework assignment that's due tomorrow and then I'm calling it a night.

I'm going to have to make an effort to exercise again to combat this tension. I should be exercising anyway, but bad headaches are definitely a good motivator. I can logic myself out of a mental meltdown due to stress (like I did in last night's post), but I don't know how to tell my body it's ok. If anyone has ideas on that, let me know!
