Lessons from this experience:
1. Getting a general anesthetic is not as scary as it seems
2. Stitches rip out really easily so don't talk too much
3. The 1st day you're too out of it to care about the pain, the 2nd day the pain killers help, the 3rd day it hurts and you need the pain killers. The 4th day you think you're ok but when the pain hits you want to rip yourself apart. 5th day you may as well be dead.
4. It really hurts to cough, but it hurts more to cry especially if you're crying in pain - you cry because it hurts but it hurts even more, so you keep crying etc etc.
5. It's kinda easy to not smoke after you have your wisdoms removed because your focusing too much on the discomfort
6. Being in pain is not so bad when you spend time with people that care about you (thank you to those special people that made time to see me)
7. Being in pain makes you a lot nicer and more emotional - it's actually easier to do then I thought and I'm going to try it more.
8. Being in the wrong place while being in pain really really sucks
9. My parents are sadistic. Seeing my crying in pain does not apparently mean I'm in enough pain to get any kind of painkillers. Gotta suck it up!
10. I've realized I really want to move the heck out!
Lessons about pain killers:
1. Tylenol 3 has caffeine in it. It makes me very jittery and unable to sleep
2. I become incredibly honest and share things I normally would not share
3. They are called wisdom teeth because you loose all your wisdom after they are removed from frying your brain with painkillers
4. If you tell someone your on painkillers and act really silly they will tell you things that maybe they wouldn't tell you otherwise because they don't think you will remember - but you actually do
Conclusion:
All in all a terrible experience, which some have told me was really easy for them - not so great for me aside from the fact that I learned a bit about me.
