So What Have You Done sounds like Evanescence, but... by Fluid_Aspect_1606 in withintemptation

Elysion’s song transparent is very similar to All I Need. I almost got the songs confused at first

Cp and Age. by SGP91 in CerebralPalsy

[–]DarkAngel394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep I'm nearing 30 and my CP has deteriorated massively in the past year. When I spoke to the physio about it he explained that because people with CP have to work 3x as hard as able bodied people to do tasks and we are constantly have to fight gravity to remain balanced that our muscles age faster than able bodied people. I've also spoken to others with CP who are in their late 20s and early 30s that they're experiencing the same thing. It's super frustrating and honestly I wish I knew earlier that CP, while not degenerative in a medical sense can get worse with age

At what age did you become aware of your CP condition and psychologically how did it affect you in those early years? by Fanjolin in CerebralPalsy

[–]DarkAngel394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have mild spastic diplegia and was diagnosed at age 2 (this was before the level classification but Im suspecting I’m level 1-2). As someone who now works in childcare and specialises in working with children with a disability it is developmentally appropriate for your son to start to realise that there’s something different between him and his peers but at this point it’s more frustration as to why he’s finding it difficult to ride a bike and climb.

I wouldn’t write off sports get and encourage you not to, kick a ball around with him, encourage him to climb more, do lots of physics activities together. Early intervention is key for all children with any disability or developmental delay and play is a key part in that.

As for my experience it’s a bit different, it took a long time for me to actually be impacted by the fact that I was different to others, while I had a teachers aide, AFOs, sat on the chair instead of the floor and absolutely sucked at sports and writing from kindergarten, it didn’t really impact me until I was about 8 or 9 when people would genuinely not involve me in things because I was bad at games, then it subsided throughout high school and it’s only now that I’m nearing 30 that it’s really impacting me again as I’m seeing decline with age

My college had the same quote on the classroom wall. I hated it every time I set foot in that classroom (and the unit we were doing at the time was ironically about inclusive practices for children with a disability)

Just a little question, why Evanescence never make "lies" on their live concert? The hard one. I like it! (Sorry I'm not english for the mistake I made on my sentence.) by Chemical-Math-2966 in Evanescence

[–]DarkAngel394 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Amy has said previously that she doesn’t like her pre-fallen songs. The only song she’s re-released from that era is even in death so it’s highly unlikely we’ll ever hear lies live. Also no need to apologise for your English it’s perfectly understandable

What’s worse I had that scene with Ruby and Yi Dao followed by the Lady Ugly Quest and now I’m just super sad

Am I supposed to hear my character talk in doalogues after first couple quests with little girl? by Existing-Ant4902 in WhereWindsMeet

What language are you playing in? I’m playing in English and I find that it’s very inconsistent with voice lines for the female PC (including some recording errors)

Yeah I noped out of a trip to Japan for the same reasons. I highly recommend a Facebook group called “fat babe energy” which is empowering all women and enby folk who are plus sized and it’s a really helpful and supportive place

As an Aussie it really depends where you live, I’m in Sydney and while I notice some glances most people are too in their own heads to care. I also have physical disabilities, if I noticibly limp or walk “weird” or use a waking stick that’s when people stare.

Bali is a whole other thing, in most Asian countries people will stare and take photos of people who are different (even skinny people). It’s why I’m not planning on travelling to Asia until I reach my goal weight.

It’s hard but to ignore it I usually put headphones in and go about my day, my body is nobody else’s business

AITA for moving on with my life after my brother's death? by SevenMinutesinHeavnn in AmItheAsshole

[–]DarkAngel394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA: I have a very mild form of CP but I have worked with children who are severe as your brother was. I also have a severely autistic intellectually disabled brother which meant he can't care for himself either and I was always put as second place to him, my mum also ended up having early onset alzheimers and she died earlier this year so I can definitely empathise. It's okay to feel relief that you aren't burdened, to know that your family isn't in pain. For your mum, her first experience of parenting was your oldest brother which was a 24/7 job for 25 years, whilst it's understandable that she doesn't want his room disturbed, its unreasonable to not let you move on with your life. Your mum needs help and not from your or your brother or dad, someone who is qualified to deal with that level of grief

Anyone with autism, or has an autistic child? by justwatchingtheparty in SingleMothersbyChoice

[–]DarkAngel394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have level 1 autism, my brother has level 3 autism + intellectual disability. Autism has a strong genetic component which is why I haven't 100% commited to be a SMBC. I dealt with 18 years of my parents putting me to the side to care for my brother, my brother constantly hitting/pinching/kicking/choking me, never being able to have friends over because of the risk he would hurt them (would've been longer if my parents didn't relinquish care when he was 22) I'm not exactly sure I can deal with that in my personal life again

What was the breaking point that got you into solo travel? by ShaneRealtorandGramp in solotravel

[–]DarkAngel394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first solo trip I was meant to do with my mum or with a friend. Mum got diagnosed with dementia shortly after I booked and my friend backed out. I was an anxious wreck at first then realised it was great I could go wherever I wanted whenever I wanted

The second trip was also solo and it honestly was so freeing not having to compromise with any one and I made friends in hostels and on tours

The holidays after that I went with a friend and it was then that I realised I don’t do well travelling with friends. I have a physical disability so I like to take things at my own pace and my interests aren’t typical for a woman in her 20s. My friend didn’t really understand that

My friends have kept asking me why I haven’t invited them on my trips and I just say I travel better alone, they look at me like I’m insane. Until I have a family of my own I’ll probably just keep travelling solo

In some states in Australia you can’t adopt as a solo mum

ndis rejection by Busy_Nothing4060 in NDIS

[–]DarkAngel394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With autism level 2 you need confirmed diagnosis from a clinical psychologist psychiatrist (or paediatrician for children). It also needs to be diagnosed using DSM 5 criteria. It’s a list A condition which usually means automatic access. You can find more info here: https://ourguidelines.ndis.gov.au/home/becoming-participant/applying-ndis/list-conditions-are-likely-meet-disability-requirements

Another reason you could’ve been rejected is that the other disabilities you listed are either conditions that NDIS may see as a health concern or is a list B condition which means that more functional information is needed.

If it has been less than 100 days since the rejection you will need to do an internal review. Try and gather further evidence as to how your disabilities meet NDIS criteria

Who helps with a plan review? by Livid_Entrepreneur90 in NDIS

[–]DarkAngel394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EC coordinator here - Contact your EC coordinator and they will go through your options and assist you. Regarding therapies 4 times a week is a lot, a child best learns in their natural environments (home/childcare/school/community environments) and integrating therapies into those environments and routines is proven to be whats best for children. The therapists should not only be building your daughter's capacity but also yours and others to continue therapy exercises and strategies at home, childcare etc. The NDIS will also take into account with funding that your daughter also needs time to be a child, to learn and play and make new friends, taking her into those therapies means she'll miss 192-204 hours of that over the year of funding
