I can blog again. School is out!

I had a very traumatic morning.

I was diagnosed with TMJ when I was 15 years old. Basically, I grind my teeth hardcore at night. I was prescribed a mouth guard (I had to wear it 24/7 when I was in high school) and now i have to wear it at night. Which you know, I never do. I guess I have been stressed (duh) and when I stress, I grind my teeth.

This morning I decided to eat a bagel for breakfast. Well, that triggered it. I was in some of the worst jaw pain of my life. OF MY LIFE! I cried at work. Yup, people saw me cry. One lady has TMJ so she knew what I was going through and found me an ice pack and I popped two aleve.

1 hour later the Aleve kicked in and the ice packed majorly helped. I am pain free...for now.

I am lazy. I also don't take care of myself.
When will I learn.
When will I stick to a plan to keep myself healthy?
I've GOT to figure something out.
