I've got eating chicken tenders down to a fine art, so first of all, I resent the implication that I'd choke on one. I'm not a freaking philistine. Second, uh. We saw the signs for what they were. Behavioral changes. Night terrors, insomnia. Sleepwalking. Um. Hallucinations? Irritability. Confusion, disassociation. Impulsiveness. Nausea? Haven't barfed because of this thing yet, but it's only a matter of time. Things got pretty bad for a while. I got out of the house in the middle of the night, disappeared, had a ton of people looking for me. Woke up screaming when they found me. That's kind of been happening a lot? The screaming. Well, the disappearing acts, too. Not super fun. My friend's mom, she's a nurse - she had to knock me out for a while so I could get some uninterrupted sleep. Loaded me up with midazolam. If I'd had some cocaine to snort and a hooker next to me, it could've been a very '80s rock star moment, but. Not that lucky, sadly. Uh.
[ dot dot dot. ]
I kind of have trouble reading? It comes and goes. I usually use speech-to-text for... texting. Totally wet myself in second grade. That wasn't a dementia thing, I just figured, you know. I'm already oversharing. Might as well round it off with an embarrassing secret or two. In for a penny.
