can't sleep, one nightmare for any hour, and then 4 hours of a painful headache. thanks shitty insomniac sleeplessness. the dream was funny though. i've been watching too much pizzagate shit...i literally had a dream where i was at this restaurant (i was hungry earlier), and they tried to set up this interview to hire me (there was a mexican place that was hiring part-time employment, which i discounted nearly immediately- so this must be where that came from, methinks) and then lo' and behold...they were trying to get me to write out a statement, a statement that turned out they were trying to incriminate me with [or so was the point, without trying to recall the exact details] (oh yeah and there was a paralegal there, Rye, he was the one doing the interview, so ha, you were essentially represented in my dreams, in a way), and guess who showed up, the pizzaplace owner, in a pink shirt...he started to try to massage the nape of my neck, with his forefinger and thumb, and i was like "Wtf"- then i realized what was going on...got the fuck out of there...they started chasing me...so i ran into a group of Asian people whom were riding around on bikes and other conveyances, and i asked one if i can hop on board and if he could get me the fuck outta there...he did, we simply bolted off a hill and onto a freeway, where shit was getting hectic, and i awoke.
then four hours of nothing but head ache and tossing and turning- at least there were no dreams- i've had that happen (unable to sleep with constant nightmares), it's not fun.

Fuck nightmares man, I remember this one where I put my arm around the corner of a door frame and something grabbed it. I was then blast off into hyperspace and I heard a demonic voice say "Welcome to your worst nightmare, bitch." Woke up with a panic attack.

sometimes the oddest things are striking or evil-feeling in dreams.
like...ever have a dream before where you read a book, that explains that you can have "bad energy" in you, and that you can have it taken out, and then go into a serious bad trip electro shock seance type thing, and then have it tell you stuff, that you can't remember upon waking, and then for 10 minutes you're just doing diagnostic energy bullshit, with a book intelligence, and then it becomes malevolent/trickster on you, when you go from saying "yeah, since i'm already on this couch being fuckin trolled hard by some intelligent being, and being driven down a dark highway at 10,000 miles per hour, metaphorically speaking, why not, go do your thing" to "ok, i'm done now right? stop please" and then it asks you if you think you have any ribs and you say "no, please stop", and it goes "no? oh look you're right, *rib disappears* there is no rib here" *puts many fingers in rib hole* (fuck off Legion, seriously?) and then you wake up having all the energy in your seemingly at that one point, still burning in RL?
it did me. it was fucked.

I have chronic sinus congestion.
I wake up stuffed up every single day with a sore throat. It gets progressively better throughout the day, and I've developed lots of little rituals for soothing and clearing them, but is basically always there. Like having a mild grade cold ALL the time. Been to the doctors about it and they say it's like allergies, but I'm not allergic to anything.
It's amazing how useless doctors are to me.

I have this exact issue and I use Fluticasone with total success.
But it can be challenging to get the spray into your nasal passages if you are totally blocked up. I spray, and then lay on my back on the bed, so it drains into my sinuses. I sometimes have to do this, wait 15 minutes, and then do it again, because I'm so stuffed up, it takes 2X to open up.
I suffered for a long time before I tried this stuff. It's great.
(Fluticasone is available under various brand names such as Flonase)

You shouldn't validate others negativity by acknowledging their sinus conditions.
Knowing YB I bet she's found some essential oil blend that helps.

Might be good for pores but I doubt it'd be as effective, helpful or overall as beneficial as the right medication could.
If someone is suffering from a blocked sinus then simple medications like Fluticasone might be the right way to go forward.
The only risks are spending $20 and getting a wet nose.

Oh for sure, I've always heard good things about flonase. But some people prefer natural or plant based home remedies. I tend to because I'm sensitive to alot of medications. Which really medications are often concentrated and isolated compounds that occur naturally. Which is why I've personally not fiddled with EOs very much. They're expensive concentrates and I'm concerned with side effects.
We'll have to see what she treats it with but I have heard of people clearing nasal blocks over a bowl of steaming water with oils.
It depends on the source and severity but there are home remedies for cold like symptoms. Cayenne pepper always destroyed any stuffy nose I've ever had. Least before the reflux made it impossible to stomach. But herbal remedies do tend to be less effective than medications for the reason I mentioned - they're isolated and concentrated. But you can find relief if you find plants with similar compounds. And sometimes it is the better way to go (often is for me) a doctor is going to tell you to buy dayquil for your cold. Or you could just clear up your most bothersome symptom by eating hot peppers with lunch  I especially like that remedy because you can barely taste anything with a bad cold so you could also have a meal you might taste.

But as far as remedies go dayquil is definitely #1 for colds. I just don't take it unless I have to and infrequently if I do. Tends to hurt my stomach if I have more than one dose of most any cold medicine. Could be related to my liver problems since there is acetaminophen in most of them. wish I could just pop pills all willnilly but I've learned alot while trying to compensate with my body's handicaps and knowledge is always worth having. Plus I can share it and learn others too. Which is another reason I wanted to make this thread.
But yes ms Bunny please share when you pop back in

Homeopathic melatonin kinda ruined the vibes of most home remedies for me but there are some natural alternatives like kratom, damiana or poppy seed tea that work wonders.
For a stuffy nose, personally I prefer one really effective spray of stuff up my nose rather than trying to sniff peppers or whatever you meant.
