Been Gluten free for about 5 weeks and feel very different , no more tight/cloudy/foggy head( went away within 3 days) , no more 24/7 iching , no more feeling half asleep all the time :)

Oh dear, is this your new job?

Ah yes that job that I got, which changed my life because of the reduced hours, greatly increased pay, and so on.

Yeah I got that job, and then they told me that due to an HR ****-up the position I was given wasn't actually available, and I am waiting for them to sort it out and tell me when a position is likely to become available...

For all intents and purposes then, I haven't got the job, but might have -somewhen-

That is one of the reasons for the way I am feeling right now... Something life changing handed to me on a platter at the perfect time, when I am planning on moving out, and then ripped away again. Making me bitter about my current position because I thought I was about to escape, and now I'm still there, working for what now feels like a paltry wage...

:mad:

Me too!! :D but not going away anywhere. My sister wanted us to all book it off and have a few days somewhere, then my nephew got an appointment in the middle of the week which can't be changed so now we are doing....nothing :/

I've planned the first few days for sorting more bits in my flat.

Yey! I know that feeling. Did you decide to go gluten free yourself or did you have tests done? I still have a few ongoing issues but I noticed a huge difference when I went gluten free

Sorry to hear that Acme. That completely sucks! :( fingers crossed it's sorted soon
 
Currently pulling my hair out over my exam this afternoon. Haven't eaten in days and the constant feeling of sickness and stress is a completely new feeling to me. In all my years of exams and education I've never really experienced stress and I am not coping well. It's the one module I just cannot comprehend no matter what I do.

As long as it goes well I'll be glad once it's over got a few days in between this and my next one so can unwind this afternoon and get back at it tomorrow first thing.

This sounds absolutely rubbish mate :(

I don’t know the full story but I hope things iron out soon and you can get cracking on the new job! :)

As great as going away is, I’d absolutely love a week off where I’ve got nothing planned to deep deep deep clean the flat and just sit and do nothing for a few days :p

Hankies are gross. Who wants to store their own snot in their pocket all day?!

Try and eat a banana this morning and get some water in you so you’re hydrated and have a bit of brain energy for the exam dude :)

What’s the exam for? College? Uni? Clown school? :p

Appreciate the advice but can't even hold down water let alone food. Uni, its a mathematics for engineering module. Ironic considering Mech Eng is mainly maths but without an applied scenario I just can't get to terms with stuff. Worst part is a lot of the maths in this exam comes up in other modules in applied scenarios and I can do them just fine.

Maybe try going out for a nice walk this morning? I’m sure you’ve done lots of preparation and could be good to try take your mind off of things and have a relax :)

Sure you’ll be fine though, if you’ve prepared as best and you can, give it your best shot and that’s all you can do :)
 
I over did it last night and now I feel terrible. The back of my throat is sore as hell and I feel very out of sorts.

It will pass but why do I do these things!!

I've been through exactly the same - started an electronic engineering degree at 25. Loved the applied parts as they came naturally but the pure maths just didn't fit in my brain. In my last couple of years I had my first genuine experiences of anxiety, stress, that nail-biting stomach-churning worry.

You will definitely survive it and it sounds like you're doing the right stuff to get as good a grade as you can. Focus on how it'll feel when you're done later, and treat yourself after :)

I've just woken up from 10 hours sleep which I sorely needed but now have to face fixing loads of mistakes our builders made, before they're back Wednesday :o
 
Just finished prepping a presentation for a job interview on Thursday, using ****-hot Powerpoint skills template. This has been an interesting gig so far; I've already had two interviews for this company for lower-grade positions, had great feedback but didn't get either position due to being 'too advanced' (don't get me started on that...). Went for a more senior position a month ago as requested and didn't even get a flippin' interview. So, now second (or rather fourth) time lucky, perhaps. Plan to reward myself now with a couple of hours on Football Manager while the rest of the household sleeps.

Going for double-jeopardy next month, as I'm moving house and need to start packing a few boxes tomorrow to help spread it out. Moving, quite literally, thirty seconds from my current location. House move and a potential new job within a few weeks of each other is not ideal, not to mention the nearly two-year-old who will love nothing better than re-moving anything not tied down!

@Acme - chin up and good luck resolving your situation.
 
Drank too much last night, feel groggy... Probably not a good idea to drink half a bottle of rum in an evening but when mixed with orange juice, it just tastes like orange juice..... :p

Cuppa break while I'm undoing the cack work the builders have done in my kitchen. Literally can't read IKEA instructions without words. Or see the pictures I guess.
 
@Megahurtz400 I didn't come out of the exam feeling terrible about so thats a good sign. However the exam had a different format to what it should have been, whether they changed the format without informing just me and everyone else knew I do not know but I was not happy about it.
