I write this incase I die in my sleep, I think it should be known what my symptoms are so that when they find my body then they have some idea of what did me out.

This morning (at 7:30) I woke up like any other morning, wanting to go back to sleep. But I forced myself to crawl out and embrace a shower before heading off to school. When I stood up I noticed a faint throb in my head

....throb..........throb........throb.....

I shrugged it up and got ready for the day like normal. The headache never went away, but I ignored it as though it wern't there. Nothing big, I've had worse.

After class I go back home to get ready for work, throwing my uniform into the dryer and taking a nap before I leave for work. I wake up and the throbbing in my head has gotten more persistent.

...Throb...Throb...Throb...Throb...

For a second I ask myself if I should take anything but shake my head and dismiss the idea almost immediately. I don't like taking drugs. I leave for work, the vein in my head still throbbing.

At work, things are going okay. Im making sandwhiches, its a bit hot but its always a bit hot. Im angry at my hat for making me hotter but what ever. During my coworker's lunch break (at 6:45pm) my nose starts to bleed. I can't deal with customers with a bloody nose, I try to take care of the situation but the blood continues and I try to keep it in (yay sniffing up blood xP ). At about 7:30 its not a problem anymore.

I come home, I get ready for bed, my head is still hurting and I exhale through my nose and I start to bleed yet again but this time onto the bed sheets (yay) (at about 1-ish am). The pounding my my head increased.

ThrobThrobThrobThrob/StabStabStabStab

I go through a half a box of tissues in a matter of minutes. I give up on the tissues and sit on the edge of the tub, nose over the toilet and let it drip for about 45 minutes. The pounding through my skull throbbing almost to the rhythm of the blood drips.

I am afraid to say that I have a slight fear of dying in my sleep and no one knowing so Im telling you now. If I die tonight, you'll know why. I have finally taken something for the pain in my skull. The movement of my eyeballs made the throbbing worse. Everytime I heard one of the cats in the hall prod my door was another stab to my brain. Every drip of blood seemed to echo louder in my head.

She goes insane just before the blood clot has its way with her.

I'll post if I live or not when I wake up.

Oh, but the bleeding has stopped for now. It was interesting watching it drop into the toilet water. At the bottom it seemed to collect itself and as it floated down through the water, it was really pretty to look at. Sitting there for 45 minutes beside the toilet, watching my blood fall in would seem like a boring thing, but I was interested in each drop of blood and how it mixed itself with the water below. it was like a dance between fire and ice, if one could make fire and ice dance. How each element embraced one another but in the end the water was on top.

Like I said, she goes insane right before she dies.

G'night.

Joy? That's not good. If it keeps up, get it checked out. Then sue your government for screwing you over by privatizing health care to pay for the costs.

She lives! And with not a single throb to her name. My nose feels fine, as does my head. Maybe yesterday was just an odd day.

But nonetheless I thought it necessary to say something to someone before I slipped out of consciousness.

OMG, that's scary!
I too think you should check it out.

Yeah, you should check it out. My guess though is... that it is caused by you getting so little rest and working too hard >> you said something about getting to bed around 1am-ish? With a headache? >> bad Joy, BAAAD!!!!!

First: You should not overlook or ignore your headaches, specially if u wake up with one, because its your body telling you that somethings wrong... And if you keep ignoring it for too long, the body is going to react (like it did in you case, with your nose starting to bleed...)

Second: You should probably drink more water (pure water... and specially nothing with coffin or lots of sugar in it... lots of reasons for that... (not gonna bother explaining it...), but the reason you should drink more water is that; water cleans up the body, and keeps it healthy...

and if you don't know why you get a headache here is the usual reason:
it's basically because the fluids that surrounds the brain expands/thickens... this can be cos of a lack of water... specially if u have been drinking alcohol (cos then your liver needs water to clean up ur body, and it doesn't care where it takes it from... and woo hoo... u have a hangover...)

Third: stress down. Quite simple... If your body is in constant stress it will not function normally (I can give you a biological and psychological explanation for this, but I cba atm).
And studying and working on the side can be very stressful...
And it is actually a known fact that if you stress too much you will go to an early grave...

and yeah, I shared the topic with a friend that knows more about this stuff than me, because I don't want you to die crying
