- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Sleep is my only escape from reality since I’m too poor for drugs. It’ll be hard to give that up.
Pro Kay no losdos
And have bad skin?
I’d rather look fabulous with anxiety on the side
You can be properly hydrated AND have bad skin! Ask me how i know 🙃
Only getting sun through glass?
I sunburn. Badly.
Perhaps may manage to get more benefit from the sun, by keeping it to <15minute sips, and eliminating sun-sensitivity aggravating toxins from the diet, like all the "seed oils" (and all the toxic residues and all the toxic changes to the structure from the processing and the addativees hiding its oxidised and rancid). Maybe an increase in oily fish, and perhaps mushrooms if you can handle them, can also help. Got some of the northern ginger genes in me, so had to learn this stuff for myself too. Getting sun's one of the healthiest things, up there with good sleep, so it's worth the patient cautious efforts to acclimate to it. Sunset & Sunrise are handy for at least getting infra red. Mid day gets the vitamin d generating stuff, which if managing doses carefully, can help acclimate, and has feedback loops to help handling getting more of that goodness without burning.
Yus.
Same spirit as my old quip of:
If ignorance is bliss, give me agony.
Always delirious to avoid reality.
Now being hurt by delusions.
I don't need that reminder.
AuDHD is sufficient to to keep me from remembering to drink.
How many times will I repeatedly boil the kettle, and it cool down again, before I remember, today? Daily average is around 4.
Wrong, always dehydrated and just makes you feel worse..
I get headaches when I'm dehydrated. In fact, I used to get a lot of headaches, and it was years before I realized the cause was dehydration.
Drink plenty of water, people. Other bad things can happen when you're dehydrated, none of them good, many of them painful. I'm not one of those people that recommend drinking a given amount of water each day, but if you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated. The amount of water you need varies based on your physiology, exercise, weather, food, and probably a dozen other things.
Friendly reminder: you can’t outthink a dehydration headache.
Author should take care. His depression gets worse.
