Relapse! Coping, Symptoms and Tips.

So my day was going well until I got home and bam, one of those ocular eye things. Not a rainbow this time but zig-zag lights but still the distorted eyesight like everything was a Picasso painting. I sat quietly sipping a glass of water and 20 minutes later my eyesight is back to normal again. At least I was home and I knew what to expect.
I'm still wondering if it's bright sunlight that sets this off.

Yep Ocular Migraine. The optician says they don't really know what causes them, but they go away on their own. I had one a few weeks ago.

Such a strange feeling fishman and most of us on this thread have had one.

Back on the tit-end subject....

1. Nextdoor Neighbour turns up for his routine 3 day break while I'm weeding the shared driveway that separates the two parking spaces (which I've done for the last 5 years and should be shared between us). I look up as he parks his vehicle in the visitors space in the street and as he approaches me says "carry on". Seriously I could have shoved my little shovel up his ****

[Catkins]

Cheeky bugger!

[Carnation]

Took the words right out of my mouth catkins

[Darksky]

I would have very sweetly asked if he wanted to join me.

A heavy hint but nicely put. I wonder what his answer would have been. But yes a cheeky git indeed.

Sadly life is replete with jerks like that Carnation. Darksky's suggestion is a very good one.

You can't beat a bit of Meat Loaf Carnation

[Carnation]

Damn, I didn't think of that darksky, good one!

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't see a damsel on her knees alone fishman

Here's another one of my tit-end scenarios...

I was chatting to a neighbour, started by saying "Hi", then asked how she was and got a rundown how terrible her work was, then when I was replying she walked away.
Long gone are the days of friendly neighbourhood chats. In my neck of the wood, for sure.

I certainly wouldn't Carnation. Whatever happened to chivalry? I would have removed my cloak and laid it at your feet, even though it may have stopped your weeding. However, by your latter post it seems bad manners are not confined to men.

A stinker of a day today. Panic hit while on my walk, which shook me because its not done that before. Low mood yes but not panic.
