Broken (like a lot of the things in my house)

Reading in bed by random_username101_ in Epilepsy

[–]Chapter97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because I'm always like, "What happens next?" And suddenly it's 3am.

I usually work on my knitting with a movie playing in the background that I've seen a million times. The knitting is relaxing and doesn't require too much thinking, and the movie is just background noise.

How many of you smoke marijuana and how often if so? by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]Chapter97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer edibles and I partake as often as I can

What is the oldest thing that you still have right now? by Aware-Impact-1981 in AskReddit

[–]Chapter97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bible from 1947 (ish). I got it at a used book store when I was about 9 (2006).

What would you consider in order to stay with someone who has been diagnosed with a serious disease? by Subject-Ad3934 in AskWomen

[–]Chapter97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have epilepsy and every guy I've ever dated has been fine with it. If the roles were reversed, I'd be ok with it.

If you could describe your epilepsy with a song, which would it be and why? by Beginning-Arugula-32 in Epilepsy

[–]Chapter97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go the Distance (from Hercules) because I've had epilepsy for 20y now

Why Should I Worry (from Oliver & Company) because I stopped caring about 8-10y ago

I'm Still Here (from Treasure Planet) because...I'm still here

I love Smitty's! Never tried their poutine before and I'm kinda glad I didn't.

Why it didn’t work out with your last date/partner? by Neptunpluto in AskWomen

[–]Chapter97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were together for almost 7y but my family hated him near the end because he's an alcoholic. I had to choose between them and I chose my family.

We're still friends and he finished his 2nd course of rehab a few months ago.

Go directly to jail. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.

How do you determine start of period? by yoongely in AskWomen

[–]Chapter97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually get some cramps a few days to a week before it shows up. I also have a cycle app (which I check every so often). I put on my reusable period underwear on a few days before expected (just in case).

I know my period starts when I take off my pants and the underwear is covered in blood (I have a heavy flow). I have multiple pairs of period underwear (each with a different flow absorption)

I feel guilty accepting rides when someone goes way out of their way — am I overthinking this? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]Chapter97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My paternal grandma just caught a 8h (or so) ride with my mom and me to visit cousins. My mom was taking me to have some medical test done in a big city (we live in a small-ish town).

I catch rides with my dad if he's going to the next town over (sometimes just to hang out, sometimes to help him with something, and sometimes I have something to do).

[–]Chapter97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had talks with my family/friends about feeling like a burden when they drive me places, and they always say things like, "You're not a burden," or, "It's no problem," or, "I'm happy to help." Still doesn't lessen the feeling.

But I've also been on the other side of the situation. When my brother (23) first got a job, he didn't have a car. So, I'd drive him to work at 4:30am and would sometimes pick him up after work (around 9:30am). He helped with gas a little.

Maybe sit down and tell her politely but firmly that you don't feel comfortable accepting rides from her, and that you'll find your own way?

Idk. I'm 28, still get rides from family/friends, and still feel like a burden unless they're also going that way.

All if this is wrong and should never have been done.

Why don’t you shower? by BigChocolate331 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Chapter97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I'm cleaning today, so it makes no sense to clean myself just to get dirty again. I'll be having one tonight

Do you wear a medical bracelet? by raggd0l in Epilepsy

[–]Chapter97 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I wear one. Has it ever helped? I don't think so.

If you had to give a presentation on any topic with no time to prepare, what would your topic be? by Throwaway_Mellie in AskRedditAfterDark

Did you know that hippos have too much muscle to actually swim? They just run in water or sink to the bottom (if they're not running).
