By the by, wanting to stuff Fluttershy doesn't make you a dedrophile because of one gag.

I heard this name before but never knew what it was about. I'll look into it and maybe add it to The List. I'll trade you a recommendation from my own "everyone should give this a try" list. Let's see...

The Talos Principle. The gameplay is mostly just pretty chill puzzles and there's very few characters (you only properly interact with one, really - but you get logs and stuff of many more), but the exploration of the setting and the ideas and how it all just clicks together is just so, so good and well executed. The whole package is quite unique, too, making it worth a try for everyone since it can't really be recommended based on "you liked X therefore you will probably like Y".

Night in the Woods is one of my favorite games of all time

i've played it all the way through multiple times, and it's one of the very few games that i was happy to buy twice, just so i can play it on my switch as well

the story, the characters, the design, the humor, the tragedy, it's all just so perfect and makes me cry every time...

and i think it's a game that just becomes more poignant and relevant as time goes on...

Had a bad day. I hope it doesn't continue to tomorrow, given I have reservations at a restaurant.

Last night, I went to bed around 3am,but kept tossing and turning. I gave up around 7-8am and figure I'd try to stay up.

But I had the squirts and was worried it was a sign of poor health.

Some yucky TMI in case anyone wants to know:
Despite having to go to the toilet every twenty minutes to piss out my ass, it still felt there was some mass that refuse to leave, with only a few pieces leaving. So it's kind of lucky I didn't spend the whole day with liquid diarrhoea, but now I am a bit constipated because it refused to budge.

However, right now, I feel fine. My costiveness is not as terrible as the day before last Christmas Eve, which felt like I was carrying a lump of coal in my stocking.
I also had a mug of cocoa fixed with some fibre powder to help my digestion.

>Checks some stuff.
Oh! The town's Christmas light ceremony was not today as I thought, but actually on Saturday! So I haven't missed it.

But I do have dinner reservations tommorow.

My mother cancelled it. I still have a bit of the squirts.

I just washed my hands and was about to leave when my body demanded I sit back down on the loo.

Mother believes it's irritable bowel syndrome. She believes it's caused by family drama we've had of late, but I also believe it's because I'm lacking sleep.

I may sleep on my recliner tonight, given I find it more comfortable than my own bed.

Also, for dinner, I decided fresh fruit would be the safer bet. I dunno if an oven cooked meal will do me all that good.

I'm just responding to what I feel my body needs.

I feel if I have cooked or boiled food, I may throw up later and any nourishment I require from it will be wasted.

Fruit I can handle.It's not my stomach that's upset, it's my bowels.
(The reason why I've been sick earlier is because of worries in general. So if I overly "worry" I can't keep my food down, I likely won't.)


Plus, I already got my fruit, I don't want to change my mind for something I'm concerned I won't hold down.

I'm feeling much better now. The fruit helped.
I still got costiveness, but the runs are gone for now.

If it gets like the last time I was bunged up, then I would be concerned, but for now no pain or the feel of a stone in my gut.

I'm still gonna sleep on my recliner tonight. I think all-in-all, I find my bed uncomfortable to sleep in.

I believe it's because, other than being more comfortable, when I had my old room, my bed was a high-riser which wasn't as glamorous as it sounds, having to climb a ladder to get in or out of bed, I only kept it to conserve space. But because heat rises and being it was summer, I just found it easier to just sleep in my recliner.

Now I've grown more accustomed to sleeping on the recliner than I do my bed.
Still, my current bed is lumpy, with a dip from a busted mattress spring. I should get a new mattress but it would be a hassle lugging it up two flights of stairs.

Feeling better today.
It "dislodged" last night. Still a bit of the "squirts" but that's expected when you had nothing but fruit and barely enough water yesterday.

I still just woke up half an hour a go, though, so it didn't fix my sleeping times.

EDIT: OK, I was sick, but I assure you, not related to by lower-digestion problems. I was worried over other things that triggered it. But I do feel much better now, and I now have peppermint water.

>>1179383
Eeeeeh a bit better. I had a bit of a... I wouldn't say "relapse". While my body has recovered, it was still anxiety that was causing me problems.

I had about three hours sleep, but woke up fine.
I had cereal, but the concern of "eating stuff I want" causing me bowel problems still lingered in my mind which lead to me feeling a bit sick, which I stubbornly told myself "I had no reason to be sick, so let me eat my grapes!". Saturday is usually the day I get Chinese take-out, but I wasn't feeling up for it. While I've been gassy, I've spent the rest of the morning questioning if I was constipated or just built-up gas. It made me wish we humans had maintenance hatches or more convenient means to read and understand our bodies than just by gut-feelings alone.

I did pass some stool with minimal mess, which calmed me to know that my bowels seem to be returning to normal. It was still a bit of a struggle but likely because of minimal food the last few days.

Just before 4pm, I went to see the Christmas market with my mother as we head to the café. While she did warn me not to have a milkshake, at the same time I didn't feel like having a slice of cake and the barista recommended my usual milkshake anyway. As I drank it, it tasted milkier than usual.

As me and Mum left, I told her how I was feeling, but noticed I was feeling queezy and was worried it was my nerves triggering it again, I ended up sick in a street drain.
Afterwards, I was angry at myself given what my mind and body was going through the last few days, I was sick yesterday because of nerves and didn't want to be sick again the day after, as if some sort of "relapse".
I can't remember what my mother calls it, but I might be losing my tolerance to milk. Not "lactose intolerance", it had a fancy name to it that's genetically inheritant. While it may not be clear evident I have it, I was sick today because of milk when before I was not. What my body has been doing is wrapping enzymes in milk with mucus and storing it in my gut for disposal, and that this has been taking a toll on my body all this time. And now it might be giving up this function for it.

And then I started crying. Because like most people on the spectrum, we don't adapt to change very well, especially when it's our own biology. While it isn't the end of the world to give up milk, it's other factors that made me feel helpless in my own body. Such as the change of my appetite when I'm after being like how I was before all this, or unable to tell if I am constipated or ballooned, or able to calm my thoughts. It made me wish I could just put my brain in a robot and be done with it.
I know, it all sounds a pittance for a thirty-something year old man to cry like a child in the street over, which made it all the more embarrassing for me, I was glad it was just me, my mother and some cat that found us.


Right now my mental state is "I don't really give a fuck any more." I want to enjoy the foods I enjoyed before, but I will eat what I believe my body wants and will try to eat what I want and if it gives me blockage or squirts I just don't care any more. I want to live my life than worry over what I can or can't eat even if it'll cost me a few years off my life.

But other than yesterdays drama, all-in-all, I am feeling better. My anxiety is seeming to pass on and in a way, I do feel like my old self.

Yes, when I look at my "chocolate box" (chocolate bars, crisps, Terry's Chocolate Orange, cookies, McVities Digestives) as well as my fave cereal, I lament I may not "feel" to indulge as often as I want to... but that doesn't mean I won't snack ever again, just probably not as often for the time being.

I am recovering, if already recovered, and that's what matters. (I guess just giving up listening to my body kinda helped.)

Casein Allergy Symptoms
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casein

That's the fancy word. It's not lactose intolerance, but it might be related.

Milk has a protein called "casein" and it's what makes milk "milk", so there's no "casein free milk" as far as I'm aware, unless it's plant based.

It's a genetic disorder, but it can be carried, so if two carriers have a child the child is likely to have it.

The symptoms are the body wraps the casein in mucus as it goes into the stomach. For a person with resilience, I guess the casein is passed through the body somehow because I've had milk-products for years with no problem.

But my concern is that my resistance to casein has passed its tipping point. I haven't had any milk yesterday to see how well I can still handle it.

If the milk is still fresh, I'll have some cereal later. Worst case scenario I'll get queezy, which I can take peppermint water for that. But if that's the case, then my resilience to milk has broke.

Even if I can't have whole milk, I can always switch to milk substitutes and I can still enjoy chocolate or cheesecakes and such.
