In the stillness of the evening, a time serene,Thoughts drift towards the twilight's last gleam.There, against the window, I linger on,Gazing at rainbows where the day is drawA blessing from the East, softly spoken.

The flight path dims as the evening wanes,Wings carve through skies in silent refrains.Into the night, we quietly tread,Dark clouds above, where the stars once spread,A veil of white before the pane, unbroken.

The scene unfolds, a tapestry rich and vast,Each moment is fleeting, in memories to last.From dusk till dawn, through shadows, we glide,In the embrace of night, secrets confide,A journey through time, in whispers awoken.

So stands the soul, at the brink of night,Where dreams take flight in the absence of light.A silent witness to the day's last breath,In the quietude, finds solace, not death—A canvas painted in hues unspoken.

I wasn't expecting a good start, not on a Monday of all days. I woke up invigorated and alive; I even remembered to take my pills today. I think the excitement of witnessing a solar eclipse encouraged me to be so upbeat. I don't usually look forward to school, but I couldn't wait to observe the eclipse during my 9th period. Now, I'm sorely disappointed; I missed the complete eclipse. The complete eclipse happened while I was in 8th period; My teacher wouldn't allow us outside, instead opting for a live stream. Big downer, now I have to wait twenty years for another chance.

I should've asked to stay home. Although, I had a test to do today. A summative essay for US History: pulled most of my information out of my ass, though. I probably got no better than a low B. And god forbid I miss any review for the Algebra test on Friday. I wouldn't have missed the division drama; my day would've been better without it.

I don't understand how Panther II can walk around with his self-proclaimed "Sigma energy" yet be too afraid to apologize in person. I didn't know being a sigma included acting like a little bitch. Seriously, he went out of his way to contact his friend to send his message, begging the only friend I have left from the division to contact him three months after the division dissolved because he was scared to apologize. Extremely childish, as always.

But boo, hoo, it doesn't bother me all too much anymore; he can continue trying to remedy unfixable problems. I'm not going to be there when his new little division goes to shit as well. All I need is my family and the friends I have left.

Speaking of which, Sonder came home with a crazy amount of homework. It's ticking me off how much his teachers give him. It takes a long time to assist him because he can't focus when he gets home. Juggling my and his homework doesn't help, but it is what it is.

In the intricate tapestry of human health, the equilibrium of electrolytes is paramount. Among these, chloride may not command the spotlight like its more renowned counterpart, sodium, yet its balance is equally critical. Hyperchloremia, or elevated chloride levels in the blood, can signal various underlying conditions. This article explores the causes of hyperchloremia, particularly when it presents in isolation, with other minerals remaining within normal parameters.

What is Chloride?

Chloride is a crucial electrolyte that collaborates closely with sodium and potassium to regulate body fluids, sustain blood volume, blood pressure, and the body's pH balance. It is primarily found in the blood and extracellular fluid. The normal range of chloride in the blood is typically between 96 and 106 milliequivalents per litre (mEq/L), although this may slightly differ depending on laboratory standards.

Hyperchloremia: A Closer Look

Hyperchloremia occurs when the serum chloride level surpasses the upper limit of the normal range. While often identified during routine blood tests, this condition might not manifest specific symptoms but can indicate significant health concerns when observed.

Causes of Isolated Hyperchloremia

The factors leading to elevated chloride levels, particularly when other minerals remain within normal limits, are complex:

1. Dehydration: The most straightforward cause, dehydration leads to an increased concentration of chloride as the body loses water and electrolytes.

2. Kidney Disorders: Conditions that impair kidney function, such as chronic kidney disease, can hinder the kidneys' ability to filter excess chloride effectively.

3. Acidosis: Forms of metabolic acidosis, where the body cannot eliminate enough acid or produces too much acid, often result in elevated chloride levels to maintain acid-base balance.

4. Dietary Intake: Consuming large amounts of table salt can increase chloride levels, especially if there is impaired kidney function or a predisposition to chloride retention.

5. Medications: Certain medications, including diuretics and corticosteroids, can elevate chloride levels as a side effect.

6. Endocrine Disorders: Although rare, disorders like Addison's disease affecting the adrenal glands might disrupt electrolyte balance, including chloride.

Diagnosing Hyperchloremia

Hyperchloremia is usually identified through blood tests conducted for other reasons. If high chloride levels are detected, healthcare providers may undertake further tests to ascertain the underlying cause, considering the patient's medical history, symptoms, and additional laboratory findings.

Managing Hyperchloremia

Management strategies for hyperchloremia depend on the underlying cause. For example, addressing dehydration through fluid intake, modifying the diet to reduce salt consumption, adjusting medication, or treating kidney disorders can help normalise chloride levels. In some instances, managing acid-base disorders or treating endocrine dysfunctions might be necessary.

Conclusion

While elevated chloride levels may appear benign at first, they can indicate underlying health issues that warrant attention. Understanding the balance and function of electrolytes like chloride is essential in maintaining overall health. If you're diagnosed with hyperchloremia, working closely with your healthcare provider to identify and manage the underlying cause is crucial. Through awareness and proactive management, it's possible to maintain the delicate balance of electrolytes and ensure long-term health and well-being.

I am inherently fearful

A scared child in a woman's body

How does one grow up?

I have stayed the same since I was seven

Stagnant, but on the outside so deprived

As if I’ve never had a break

When all I have is time

But I never do anything with it,

And I don’t know why.

I should have completed my books by now

But I have written less than I did in high school

Oh how I hated high school

But now I’d give anything to go back

To have friends and correct the mistakes I made

Be less shy, talk more, to be loved

But I am nothing but myself

And I do not know how to change

A horrendous bug lurking

Somebody squish me

Trap me in a cup and let me loose

I figured I might as well chuck in stupid stories in here for funsies

SO

here's something that just made me want to crawl into a hole and die that happened two weeks ago.

Let's set the scene, I'm in my business management class and I've got Discord running in the bg, nth insane. I was also on Do Not Disturb. Keep that in mind. My group goes hey we'll use ur laptop I'm lay hey that's cool whatever. I GO UP THERE AND START THE PRESENTATION AND "bling" DISCORD NOTIF. LIKE BABES. MY VOLUME IS OFF, ITS ON DO NOT DISTURB. WTF MAN. Also, every server besides Penana is set to like only mentions. ANYWAYS. while I'm doing this presentation the notif goes off and i turn off my volume my laptop is muted. we turn off all the sound BUT STILL ENTIRE FUCKING PRESENTATION

DISCORD NPOTIFS.

A part of me died that day...part of my dignity.

What makes it better is no one sent any messages too me during that time AND penana discord hadn't gone off like...wtf an

Context: I'm standing in line for a game. And as more people come to play, the line gets longer and longer.

Dude behind me- "I hate lines. They are too long. And too many Ls in the word 'line',"

To the boy who was never meant to be:

Why did it have to happen to us?

Why does everyone else get to have their stories then ours has to be lost somewhere in a corrupted state?

Why do we have to be the "right person, right place, wrong time"?

Why can't I just give up on what was never meant to be?

How did we go from a simple question to such heart break?

How did one person go to the one thing that makes me wake up in the morning?

How am I supposed to let go of the biggest regrets I've ever had?

How am I supposed to forget you so I can find someone else?

Please, next time, don't leave me. And I won't let you go.

Sexuality equal to Humanity

When no ones think about the lifeless

Prices will be increased till we see the mindset

Which will help to escape From the mindless

If you go seeking out the happiness

You might get know about the cross roads

It’s Will lead you to the wildness

Seen by the virtuousness

I got to know about the righteous

Greatness will be meaningless

If Can’t help the helpless

Helpless will seek out the solutions

To come out from the population

Consumption won’t be enough till realize the imagination

What can do the generation

If we could destroy the pollution

Which cave into our mind, since we are from the aggravation

Expectations will be vital

To the future population

To go ahead with the imagination

To win the Life by the acceleration

In order to find the hallucinations

You have to have the sensation

Get your feet from my mind

I gotta think

Think of the way

How I’m gonna escape

Escape from this uncertainties

Till I met the devil

I’ll search throughout the universe

How I’m gonna survive

Till I see the stars to show me the road to heaven

Way down we go

As long as we able to see

We see the full of lies of reality to keep us on the ground to make the mistakes
