Word of the Day: Hypothalamus

Your hypothalamus, a structure deep in your brain, acts as your body’s smart control coordinating center. Its main function is to keep your body in a stable state called homeostasis. It does its job by directly influencing your autonomic nervous system or by managing hormones.

Deeper Within

For as much as I am reaching out and overextending to keep and make more connections, I am retreating ever deeper inward, farther away from the Light.

Maybe the Light is actually comprised of darkness, combusting and regenerating, sparking its emittance at such a high rate that we do not see its core is the source.

Let It Be Rerouting

I am starting to misplace, misidentify numbers

Yesterday, while applying for clothing asssistance, I forgot my phone number when time to write it on the application.

I just stared at the page, drawing a mental blank when trying to bring up its imagery.

When the kind assistant read back the number to me for confirmation, I had to laugh – flustered – and confess that this was the first time this was happening.

I couldnt “see” in my mind the number was correct – that place that says “yes” in thought was just an empty room in my middle brain.

All I had was a hint of whispering memory at the forefront of my brain that led me.

Object identification regarding shapes and number relations creates visual tangling and brain into limb shutdown response.

This is why I need Speech or other therapy.

The effect has been worsening since I ramped up classes dealing with programs and equipment details in an effort to gain as many skills as possible before forced to stop.

Adding to this, I have ramped efforts into career search and networking on my own, so no wonder I’m hitting gaps in thinking.

Further, my brain was switching phone number digits this morning while noting voicemail message details.

Now my hearing is mistranslating!

My brain needs time to rest and recover, but I am not sure how to find apace to grant it.

Twitch

I would like to force them all back with a flick of my wrist and a huge blast radius.

I could gather energy as unassailable intelligence and eradicate assaulting targets.

“I’m going to have to go with Wrath,” retaliated Mal to the Operant in the movie Serenity.

But I can feel these puppet string reactions pulling at me from their various directions.

“If you believe in morality and justice, you must act or be discounted – fight or flee.”

How do I just wiggle out of these traps and follow the moon and sun until I am free?

The Maze

Having chosen a path less traveled where tools are given by button pressing (though traumatic brain injury gets in the *&@#<% way of comprehending ease of use for functionality), this wily mouse is on the scent for something other than the usual entrapment of cheese while quivering from the “experiments” done to her body.

Of Frying Pans And Fire

As long as I deal with the insurance company on my own, they will talk with me and offer a pittance resolution if I sign off any further claims and ignore their willful harm to me.

If I get a lawyer, I must sign all control over to him to represent me, but the process will take longer, and as of yet, he has not explained what I get in return for relinquishing.

I would like to have a third option, one that lifts me safely and securely from this scene.

Between The Lines

One agency says they do not believe I am injured – using this claim to cut off support.

Another agency says that they cannot help me because I cannot yet return to work.

The one to help with retraining says they can’t help until my doctor releases.

The agency to help due to medical needs says “again ask the other agencies.”

Eye Tracking

This is part of the tangled brain’s system.

Difficulty is ikely due to nerve compression.

This makes it hard to navigate career retraining data collection / interpretation.

Doing the work, itself, is not the problrm.

And yet, the extreme vexation from visual overload and brain mis-signaling is vexing.

Which burns limited tolerance capacities.

Retraining Micro Tissues

As no therapy yet has addressed the overstretched support tissues surrounding my nerves and I am still denied boon of receiving help from neurology specialists, I have embarked upon my own form of torture therapy.

I have cushioned, rubber flip flops that are firm enough in the surface area of my thongs to rock my imbalance all over the place, causing my limb and torso muscles to shake and wuiver and my vertigo to swing extreme range.

Well…

Even though this alarmingly increases nerve compression and resultant referential numbness spreading, what else can I do while waiting and deadlines keep crushing?

Arbitrary Arbitration

There is a fine line to walk here.

If I obtain a lawyer, my insurance company will no longer be allowed to speak with and/or assist me in the process.

I am not surprised at the timing of all of this, though. Especially as it is poised to disrupt me on the verge of succeeding in retraining.

“At fault” coverage is dwindling, so my insurance wants to cut further payouts before they can no longer recoup this funding.

3rd Party Bias

Of course, the actual facts of the matter did not pursuade the doctor to change her position.

To do so would be to admit her error, and to acknowledge error would damage the 3rd party’s reputation for dislodging insurance recipients from their valid claims.

I wonder what the actual percentages are for the 3rd party ruling in claimants’ favor.

The Ugly Truth

I dreamed some friends set up time and place, and next thing I knew three clients were lined up, happily anticipaing to see me.

However, the most that I could do to get ready was some light and careful straightening up – and then I realized, “wait a minute.”

Despite the discomfort and embarrassment, I had to tell each one that there had been a mistake and that my friends should not have called them.

No matter how much I long to help, no matter how much I want my capabilities restored, and no matter how much I need the money, I just can’t help people in this way for now, anymore.
