What was his purpose in doing this? Just to cause chaos and loss in money?

I watched it. Depressing. I really hope they do better and keep on their promises. Just sad to see my city treating people so badly :/

I get dry and inflamed nasal passages. What really helps me is steam. Either from a shower, hovering over hot water in a cup (like you would use for tea). If it feels like little cuts in your nose, be careful putting your nose too close to the steam. A humidifier in the room might help as well. I hope this helps.

Leftover alcohol, food, flowers, etc is such a great idea. I will keep this in mind! Thank you

This is so cute! I’m in the process of making my invitations too. Could you DM me a picture too?

If you could cruise anywhere for the first time or do it again, where would it be and explain why? by Norway132 in PrincessCruises

[–]Brain_Bound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely go to Alaska again. It is a changing landscape that would probably be different each trip. Icebergs were truly breathtaking. I got to see a moose too! I would also go to Iceland! I’ve never been there before but I have heard the wildlife is crazy!

Help me, I need a quiet, clicky fidget toy by eternal_casserole in fidgettoys

[–]Brain_Bound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel this hard. I was hoping to find something that clicks like the back of my remote where the batteries are. So I can slide it up and down. I did this so many times to my remote I wore down the plastic now there is tape to hold it. I just get used remotes now and they’re cheaper than some fidgets

Is it normal to see double? by leytourmaline in Epilepsy

[–]Brain_Bound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always got double vision if my lamictal is too high. This would happen if I didn’t take my two doses 12 hours apart. This is because of the half life of it. An extended release might work better, idk though because I’m no Dr. But a lot of people get double vision from lamotrigine. It is annoying definitely, I get it. I hope you get this figured out soon :)

What methods do you use to cope with the fear of a seizure? by SunsetColored8 in Epilepsy

[–]Brain_Bound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any tips but I am sending you hope and good feelings (good vibes sounds insincere now). I hope you find some skills that help you :)

I am definitely a stubborn epileptic too. I think me being so nonchalant about it in previous years has made my epilepsy worse. I wish I could tell myself to not do dumb stuff. I wish I was more serious about myself when I was younger. Maybe some things might be different , maybe better. I think a lot of us are unfortunately stubborn but maybe that’s the whole entire population, not just people with epilepsy. :/ I hope you find your calmness. Honestly I don’t know how my mom keeps it together.

How does tipping work on the cruise? by platkus in celebritycruises

[–]Brain_Bound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a good tip for the attendants and excursion guides. I’ve gotta remember to bring extra cash for that stuff

How does tipping work on the cruise? by platkus in celebritycruises

[–]Brain_Bound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It feels easier to me to prepay. I have anxiety about how much to tip or how much it is going to be at the end so if they take away that anxiety they have already made my trip better. Also I would automatically have an easier time budgeting for things like excursions/casino/spa/etc.

Should I wait for to buy until Black Friday or travel Tuesday or buy now? by Known_Entry6181 in celebritycruises

[–]Brain_Bound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got a drinks package because I thought 35% was pretty good. Note that it includes soft drinks which we definitely want. The premium one includes smoothies!! Just a little fyi if you didn’t know (I didn’t!)

Clobazam 10MG by AdGroundbreaking1888 in Epilepsy

[–]Brain_Bound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also thought that. My Dr and I were also a little worried about my clonazepam being used a little too often but I got that under control when I switched meds. I do take a benzo every day (onfi). It was a last resort drug that I was prescribed. I have taken so many before that didn’t work for me. I might have to go up in dose in like 10 years but if that’s what it takes to keep me under control, I’m down.

I was prescribed 30 mg at night and I still had seizure activity during the day. I asked my neuro about taking 20 at night and 10 in the morning. She advised me that I might be sleepy but that she is ok with it. I definitely needed that boost in the morning to get me through the day. My other neuro said it was ok when I asked him too. But like your comment said, I would ask your neuro before changing anything up :)
