1. You wake up every morning feeling like doing nothing.
2. You feel tired all the time, which is particularly weird when you have actually been sleeping and resting a lot more than you used to.
3. You fall asleep very easily, yet you do not have good sleep.
4. You always try to urge yourself to do lots of things which are accumulating as time past by, keep haunting you with voices saying ‘settle me’ but others say ‘no, me first’ and they keep arguing in your mind – well, you keep trying to urge yourself to settle all those but you ultimately end up with nothing at the end of day. (Sounds more like inability to perform multitasking works)
5. You sometimes feel very tired of having to do things even those simple regular daily tasks that you have actually already been doing them for a long time throughout your life (so far).
6. You feel like you have done a lot of mistakes, and neither can you take them back nor correct them all.
7. You think that you are so useless.
8. You think that you are being a burden to other people.
9. You feel like you are not being yourself anymore.
10. You feel like you want to cry or maybe you do not want to bother and think about anything anymore. Anything at all.
11. You get angry about things you should not be or you never be angry about ie you get upset very easily.
12. You think you lose control over something yet you do not know what it is, but the biggest thing is you think that you are losing control of yourself.
13. Some people keep complaining to you how stressed they are but you keep thinking ‘I know we are all stressed out but hey, I think I am more stressed than everyone else’.
14. You keep forgetting things simply because you have so much things in your mind and sometimes you think you have ‘dory’ syndrome (ie short term memory lost; for medics there is NO such syndrome, I just made it up, please DO NOT make that an option in your exam – anyway, camtuh ke eja dory dalam finding nemo?).
15. You do your work halfway, either you forget to finish them (impossible huh?) or you have no idea what you were actually doing.
16. You sometimes have absolutely no feelings over some things – just live your present life. Again, like dory…just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming swimming swimming…she’s so funny isn’t she?
17. You hate yourself for being so unorganized, also for wasting so much of our precious time over unnecessary things but you still do so.
Question: How many the word ‘things’ can you find in the above symptoms? Hahaha. Just thought I used to type that word a lot!
We are now on TATT (tired all the time) syndrome case, linked with depression and the lecturer said most of the people with depression actually come to GP to complain about it (more than 90% if I’m not mistaken). Can you believe it? Seeing a doctor only to share your depressive moments with the doctor might be a very peculiar thing to see in Malaysia. Reminding me of the phrase Mr J (my first English teacher in KMYS) – “Suffering in silence”.
Well anyway. It looks more like depression to me (came across this a lot in that one lecture we had, which presented short star wars scenes etc), but if you go back to symptom no 15, would you say that this is an early sign of dementia? Or maybe it’s just due to hormonal change? Or maybe it is a punishment for you because you are behaving so badly?
Conclusion: Best jugak kalo buat SSC pasal ni. Heh. Very irrelevance conclusion, don’t you think?
Now, care for a story? I have always said that God knows the best for us. Well, here is another story to put it up.
KISAH ROUTER KAMI.
Kami beli router kat ebay and it turned out we received a faulty one so return la balik kat derang, tp dah more than a week and we had nott get any news yet.
Dila: Kesian la korang nak guna internet. Jomla kite beli je router kat kedai tuh.
Iffa: Tak kisah, kalo dapat refund, it was my money anyway. Kalo die ganti baru, jual je la kat ebay balik.
Call Ija ngan Diah, derang pon tak kesah. So we headed to a computer shop next to Iceland.
Iffa: Do you have the wireless router for telewest broadband?
Seller: It’s 62 pounds (or 64 or wutever it was – very obvious dory syndrome)
Iffa: (buat muka kat Dila) That’s expensive. Don’t you have a cheaper one, I mean the 40 plus one?
(al-kisahnye ari tuh dah datang kedai ni sebab beli cable – konon nak gune cable router. Mase refund balik cable tuh, memang ingat nak beli wireless router kat situ tapi taktau spec plak. Once dah dapat tau pegi beli kat ebay sebab lagi murah. Beriye cakap nak datang balik kedai tu).
Seller: No. Not in stock.
Iffa: When are you going to get new stock?
Seller: Don’t know. (Pegi tanye kawan die) Next week.
Bincang ngan Dila….mahallah, tunggu je la lg seminggu harap2 ade.
Iffa: Hmm…never mind. Thank you.
Petang esoknye cek email. Alhamdulillah, dah dapat reply from that ebayer. Apparently they are giving us a replacement. Which when you put them together, you can say why the cheaper router we targeted before wasn’t in stock. Simply because we are getting a replacement! So no need to worry about re-selling it. Subhanallah. And lesson to learn is to keep your promise. Kan dah dapat balasan. Finally, memang pegi jugak kedai tuh, and believe me, if the item was not faulty I might not be going into the shop again. Again, how God has arranged the best! At least the seller will think I kept my promise (which honestly I wasn’t) so avoiding him being prejudice to Malaysian muslims (he’s a muslim too). My mistake. I blame myself for that.
