Hi,

Writing hard today. I no med for sleep last night. All night awake. Worked 3 hours and left. It hard to put words in order. letters jumble in my head and the ability to use grammar comes and goes.

Now, I am fighting to use proper English. The first part of this post is what literally is in my head when I try to speak and write right now. I have to stop now. The pressure in my head is building. I wanted to show you what it looks like in the head of someone with Aphasia during a spell.

Cheers,

Same as The Falling Oak - Learning How to Die

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 74

Dec. 23, 2022 Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope this entry finds you and your loved ones well and happy. What’s happened with Darian the last few months? Damned if I know. Actually, I know a few things. My wife changed jobs and I lost my gym privileges due to it. That bummed me out as I enjoyed being a metal head. I’m hoping after the first of the year to find another gym. I was working out 1-1/2 up to two hours a day four to six days a week. While I was sore and a bit tired it helped my...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 73

Thursday, October 20th, 2022 Hello Everyone, I hope things are going well for you. I’m amazed by the love, compassion and support that I get from you. Thank you. Sometimes, it was just that that kept me willing to face another day instead of finding my tree by a stream and ending it. The pain is much less severe. The photo-phobia is too. For the most part I live a quiet, fairly normal life. I sleep six hours a night, usually waking up only once. I used to wake up 10+ times a night. That...

August 14th, 2019 Hello Everyone, Has it been two years already? No, but the day after tomorrow will be the two-year mark of the onset of my illness. Since the Night of Hell, my new life has been sub-standard. There has been some good in my life. Several of the readers of the Oak have become close personal friends. Their support has helped me more than I can express. The love and support that the readers, in general, have given me have been amazing. I thank all of you. I don’t want to...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 19 The Terror of Transformation

Nov .13th 2018 I began studying sign language last night. As I’ve mentioned, I am left mute from time to time, sometimes for up to 22 hours. If the battery dies on my phone and I am caught without pencil and paper I’m S.O.L. I already know a little sign that I learned when I was in my twenties. A friend’s son was deaf. I’ve discovered that signing while driving stick is a bitch. I don’t recommend it. The last few months as you know by read The Oak I’ve been remembering and re-evaluating my...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 17 Compassion

Nov. 6th, 2018 I had several good days in a row. Yay! As they say, all good things must come to an end. It started with an increase of my internal anxiety level that had absolutely nothing to do with the external world. Nothing had changed. I was still having seizures and Aphasia and living my life. Things just started becoming harder again. Being that my condition is neurological my mood can be and often is a precursor and indicator of coming events. When I laid down last night and closed...

Jan. 21st, 2019 Hello Everyone, Sorry about the long update time. I’ve been so busy that most days it’s work, errands or function, then sleep. One night I was so exhausted I slept about 12 1/2 hours. I had my initial appointment with a shrink and it was really hard. I couldn’t even talk about The Night of Hell. I had her read the prologue to the Oak instead. It took me a few days to get calmed downed. On the 30th of January I meet my regular therapist. So if I start talking in a real...

Dec .18th, 2018 Have you ever done full contact sparring without the pads? That’s how me and my buddies trained. We pulled our punches a bit. Head shots, Neck shots, Joint breaks, and the ever famous groin shots had to be pulled completely and stop just close enough so you both knew the defender could not have prevented them. Even with those areas protected you would wake up the next day so sore sometimes. Or imagine that you’re a piece of paper that someone has crumpled up in a tight ball...

March 21, 2020 Hello Everyone, So what’s Darian been up too? Not much. Since the last entry I’ve been dealing with a new mixture of the same old shit. My memory issues were getting down right scary. They put me on a new med to help my memory and took me off a drug that was know to create memory issues. In my case, it was making my issues worse. End result? My mind is usually quieter and my memory still sucks. It has toned down a bit. I am a believer in lists and instructions now. They...

Dec. 31. 2018 Whew! We made it! If I never have another year like that it’ll still be too soon. I’ve been busy. I knocked out almost 30 hours of work in 3 days. I also learned that I can most definitely exceed the limits of my medication and sounding like a 5 year old and my best bobbing bird imitation is right on the other side of that limit line. So I have to be more moderate in what I do and make sure I get enough sack time. Not that I’m all that wild and crazy. I went and saw Aquaman and...

Sept. 16th, 2018 Today, we’re going to another place that’s fairly dark. But Darian, you’re sick, your mind could be gone in a few years. You have a right to be angry. You say that, but do you really mean that? I don’t think you do for the simple reason I don’t think a lot of people have ever been angry. True anger is dark bloody emotion that most people won’t admit to feeling. I do. Even if they admit to feeling it to themselves they won’t explore it or share it with others. Part of my...

It’s ok. You need to ask yourself if you’re up to looking into these places. It’s ok if you need to skip something that hits to close to home. You’re not going to hurt my feelings. A lot of people have been hurt by suicide. I understand if you don’t want to talk about it with me. I’m NOT trying...

My lawyer said it will take about a year I have a new toy to play with. The sensation of falling forward. The place I’m at isn’t moving like when you’re drunk or sick. It stays the same. I experience the sensation of falling forward. I’ve stumbled more than once to keep myself upright. I also lost the ability to...

I find it interesting that even after having my illness for more than a year I’m still learning things about how it has changed my approach to life. I yelled at a doctor yesterday. We were at my youngest child’s appointment. We were in the exam room. All of a sudden there was a lot of movement in the hallway. It wasn’t an emergency or anything, it just became busy.

April 14th, 2019 Hello Everyone, I know it’s been awhile since I updated and there’s a reason for it. I promised that I would keep this 100 and I just didn’t want to be 100. I didn’t want to be honest with myself much less you with some things that have been going on in my life. In some ways, I’ve been regressing and it scared me. I had a meltdown like the one at the bank at a restaurant. My wife had to tell the staff I have a medical condition. My mind has had moments where the fogginess...

I’ve caught myself working on plot points for stories without realizing I was doing it. I do phone work and had to get off the phone yesterday because I started bawling my eyes out. A Hebrew song had started running through my mind and I was able to sing it. Passages and verses came in and out of...

As long as I don’t push myself or get stressed or overstimulated I’ve been able to function pretty well.

Nothing of the sort, my blood sugar was 834 and climbing. I found out I was a diabetic, who knew? It was like this: if you’ve noticed Mt.Dew figures into a lot of my stories.

Nov. 17th 2018 Last night was uncool. As I have mentioned before, I am now subject to periods of madness which I lovingly refer to as reality being bendy. Last night I awoke in a state of full blown terror and internal reality was absolutely bendy. Back in the day, I’ve done things they say make LSD look like bathwater in comparison and last night it was full speed ahead welcome to hell. Normally, I have for lack of a better words an anchor. I know which way is up so to speak. Not this...

She puts the groceries away, packs a few things, then puts my sister and I in the car and the next thing I know I live in the deep South. My mother had pissed off the Mob. Two men had walked up to her in the store and told her she had 24 hours to get out of town or she was dead. I ended up living up in the hood...

I couldn’t even argue the point. I told her I was going to keep some for sentimental reasons. It made me cry. I had to get off the phones for a few minutes. I had built so...

My job has shifted my schedule over two hours which has fucked with my body clock and raised my anxiety levels as well as problems with Aphasia. I’ve lost a lot of work because of it. They say it’s only temporary i.e. a couple of weeks, but it’s very uncomfortable. I have to wake up every day at 6:00 am to take meds rain or shine because I take them every 12...

As I turned 55 this month that means I don’t have to worry about it until my 60’s! Yay me. I’m making some strides.

Errands, pick-up times, and that sort of thing. People tend to get pissy when you forget them twice in one day. All I can say is “I’m sorry. I’m not doing it on purpose.” It sucks. I have started a new universe called Warlord. It’s my version of fiddling as Rome burns. I can’t stop this and I’m becoming so aware of the...

The migraine pain is more noticeable but still tolerable. The speech issues are about the same. Ditto with the cognitive. Though I am detecting a little loosening around the edges and a little more freedom in thought. So that’s good. It will still take a while for my body to acclimate to the meds to really tell.

My mother made her last suicide attempt which failed. At the time I was mad about that fact. I did get to spend that summer living with my best friend though.

The only other thought I could think was “please let me die”, over and over again. I can’t manage if I lose the use of half my body on top of my other issues. I could still move, but I didn’t try to get my wife’s attention. She was in the other room. I was scared stupid, but If I was having a stroke I’d...

Ahh, the joys of changes in medication. Most of my medication revolves around migraines and is also used to treat seizures, anxiety and other brain activities, When dosages or medications are changed it is a certainty I am not going to sleep much if any the first night. Usually, there is also a quick visit for a day or so to La-la land as I adjust. I then wait two weeks or so as the deeper cycles of my brain chemistry adjust and determine if the change is good or bad. A couple of weeks ago,...

Admittedly it’s not as bad as pre CBD days when I would wake up and go “Not this shit again.” meaning the pain. If you’ve ever studied any body discipline - Gymnastics, Karate, Ballroom Dancing. It’s especially upsetting when your body quits listening to you. Don’t get me wrong, at the moment, It’s more like I’m about 1 beer...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 66

Jan .27th, 2021 Hello Everyone, I received notice that I had won my Soc. Security hearing. Yay! That takes a lot of stress off of my family and I. I will be getting back payments and regular monthly payments. So I feel good about winning, but a bit negative about what was in my therapist’s paperwork. According to her, I suffer from delusions of grandeur (She obviously doesn’t understand how important I am ;), paranoia, generalized anxiety disorder, an instant willingness to become...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 4 Seizure

Sept. 17th 2018 I just left work because I am having seizures. I want you to see what it’s like. I was at my job for less than 2 hours. Now, it’s hard to think. My hands and arms jerk. I feel little because I’m not earning money for my wife and children. I’m afraid because the seizures are getting worse before they were just in my head. Now I shake. I work from home and had to dial a number to call in sick. I couldn’t remember how to find the number in my phone. I had to just sit there until...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 25 EEG Results And More

Wednesday I had an appointment with my neurologist. I would have updated sooner, but to be honest I came home exhausted then I was balls to the wall (for me, anyway) the next day trying to get done the things they wanted done as well as little necessities like paying my mortgage. Today I was able to put in almost a full 8 hours before I had to pull the plug (I was scheduled for overtime). I am still rather trashed so I am reusing a modified summary of the doctor’s appointment that I emailed a...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 43 Boy in the Bubble

April 14, 2019 Hello Everyone, Today was much more interesting than I intended it to be. My family went to a Renaissance Fair and I promptly locked my keys in the car. I was distracted as my wife and I were discussing the legality of where I was parking. So as they went and enjoyed the fair I was attempting to get into my car. First, I called my insurance company as I have a road side assistance policy. No dice, as they reimburse you later and I had eleven dollars in my pocket. Next, I...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 18 Date Night

Nov. 9th 2018 Last night was date night with the missus. We had dinner at an Italian place as part of a club she’s a member of. It went pretty well. At one point, she laid her head on my shoulder which hasn’t happened for awhile. My Aphasia disappeared for awhile so I was able to talk with people. I was known for witty one liners and last night I was in full swing and kept my table laughing. It was nice. I started to get the shakes so I got to do the rocking thing. I swear I’m going to get a...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 12 Test Day

Oct 24th, 2018 Today was the EEG test. I went to bed at 11:30 and got up at 4:00 a.m. The test required me to be tired. As I was trying to stay awake I surfed the net. I watched some porn. Guaranteed to keep the heart rate up lol as I wasn’t allowed to have caffeine. I’m old not dead. What was it Bocephus sang? “I like the sweet young thing with old Grand dad.” It’s fun to think about anyway. I spent some time looking at videos about living in nursing homes. I hate surprises. It went from...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 37 The Flu And Other Goodies

Feb. 10th, 2019 Hi everybody, Things have been a little out of kilter here. When I offered to bring a note from my mental health care provider to my employer my schedule magically reverted to normal. Yay! It took a few days to get back into the groove and then the flu decided to come visit. My wife works with kids and one of my kids works fast food so it’s inevitable. I ended up with a stomach thing which made me feel like I was going to barf if I moved. That lasted about 24 hours then my...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 6 A Little Wisdom

Sept. 29th, 2018 Things have been interesting around here the last little while. I have a brand new grandson! Yay! His middle name is his other grandfather’s and mine first names. That’s awesome. I’ve never had someone named after me before. My dog gave me poison ivy so I haven’t held him yet. That will be remedied in a few days. Through the good graces of one of our friends here a backup system has been put in place so if/when my mind slips off the rails my family will receive a copy of...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 26 Intermission

Dec. 5th, 2018 I’m still trying to wrap my mind around everything. The fact that I’m being taken off one medication while being put on another is also messing with me. I don’t feel unsettled so much as flat. It feels as though my emotions are in a very narrow range. The meds must be some pretty strong beta blockers because my sex drive is almost non existent on one level. That’s the whole problem right there. A levels thing. On one level I don’t have a sex drive or feel the migraine, but on...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 9 I Misplaced My Left Hand

I love CBD! I haven’t had to take a single extra Naproxen for pain since I started it. I still take the other sedatives and such but this is the most pain free I have been in over a year!!! At times, my mind is quiet and I can think a little. I was able to do part of a multiplication problem in my head a couple of days ago. It doesn’t sound like much and it isn’t, but it’s more than I have been able to do for a year. CBD doesn’t fix anything but it sure does make the quality of my life...

The Falling Oak Learning How to DieChapter 31 Christmas

Dec .26th, 2018 I hope everyone’s Christmas was good. Mine was good. I ended up at Christmas Sunday church. My wife wanted to go so we went. I had to go outside during the music because even with earplugs it was still too loud. I sat in the very back so I wouldn’t cause a disturbance if the preaching got too loud. You know Holy Rollers, if it ain’t loud it ain’t sanctified, lol. The preaching was actually quiet. My wife picks my clothing for important occasions because she knows I don’t...
