crazy to me that netflix categorizes house md as "casual viewing" or "for having a good time" depending on the language setting which is the two most incorrect ways to describe that show i can think of. when i tell you NONE of my viewings of that show has ever been casual nor have i EVER had a good time watching it ‼️
Do not read if you catch tics easily and have piercings!
I got my ears pierced when I was younger but I quickly discovered piercings aren't something I can have. My Tourette's would try yanking the earrings out of my ears, so I had to ditch them. I've tried earrings recently and it's still a problem.
It's always made me very sad because there are SO many cool earrings out there, pretty much anything you could want, and they suit me so well.
BUT! I've just discovered fake ball and spike piercings and eyelash glue! I can now have lip, snake bite, eyebrow piercings, you name it, that look real and stay on pretty good! Im so happy. And if my tics do attack it, it won't hurt me and I can just stick them back on.
I cannot believe some people don't realise how unbelievably unprofessional they are.
Apparently staff members and a manager getting really drunk and having a scrap about something that really isn't worth having a scrap about is a great thing to do late a night??? And then get annoyed at me for misreading something. I can't wait to move jobs. I've not worked many jobs, but I'm pretty sure if it's really late and people are drunk and a situation occurs, you calmly diffuse it and agree to talk about the issue another day when everyone is sober and not tired.
So incredibly stressful. Arguing, sweary arguing, makes me anxious and scared. I was already incredibly anxious because of an unexpected change in my work schedule, it was loud, busy, and a lot of other stuff is happening in life at the moment. I didn't need this on top 😤🫠
My night time tics are so bad at the moment. No matter how tired I am, physically or mentally exhausted I am (from work, from ticcing all day) it gets to evening and going to bed and my tics flare right up. Head movements to the point where I can't see, twisting my legs and jerking my joints well past painful, holding my breath as a tic... They're are so aggressive, so strong. It's so frustrating and exhausting. I'm so sick of it. And people still think this condition is funny and only funny. I haven't slept properly for weeks because of the flare. I imagine it's because of my gran passing away, switching jobs, and friends going through tough times. I know some people wouldn't cure their Tourette's if someone approached them with a cure, but I hope so hard that one day something is created to seriously help with the symptoms of Tourette's. I'm so fed of it.
As @lertheblur wisely pointed out, the neighbor clocked House and Wilson in like 30 seconds. I'm SURE the rumors at their workplace were out of control.
I started getting clips of it on my fyp on tiktok. Not sure why because I've never watched/been a fan of medical shows/dramas and I struggle with gore too, especially surgical gore. But the clips I was getting were grabbing me, so I found the House wiki and read a bit about it. Being so myself, I was immediately captured by the main character being disabled. It also seemed deep, morally and ethically interesting, all the things I like in a TV show. Being so myself, I decided what can watching the first episode hurt? Few weeks later I'd finished it 🤣 That was two years ago and I still watch an episode before bed every night 🙄
dear House MD enjoyers, why did you start watching the show? making it a poll for fun but elaborate as much as you want, I'm curious!
What am I supposed to do when my boss won't do what I need them to do and I've got other people pressuring me to get that thing done, but I'm autistic.
I can't just 'keep asking them to do it'. I can't just 'message them again'. I can't just 'ask them again when you get to work later'.
I'm terrified of confrontation, I'm terrified of being a nuisance, I'm terrified of asking people things multiple times, I'm terrified of what people will respond with because I might not have a reply planned/scripted for that.
It's a disability for a reason. My job hangs in the balance because I struggle so much with talking to people. I will let my job fall because of the anxiety I feel. I don't want to, but that's how my brain works and I don't see a way round it :(
