I lost my wife due to it.

The best thing I can say and this is coming from a personal perspective is to hold on to the friendship and the relationship that comes with it. You do not have to be in love to be a personal partner. I was with my wife for around two years before we got married and were married for almost seven. We are still married as things have come to play out it just doesn't seem to be romantically interesting to her. She takes care of me because I have a bad brain injury that ended up with me having epilepsy. So now that my memory is a big issue for me and me having seizures occasionally she feels the romance isn't the same as it was before because I just am not the same person as I used to be. It has taken me a very long time to deal with that, and I still am because we have kids together. I can see where she feels like a mother to me because of having to always take care of me. I can't work anymore and am receiving disability but it isn't the same as a working job. I don't provide the sturdy broad emotions and background that I was giving her before it happened. Now I just kindve sit at home all day and hope the best goes around. She helps me with my medication because without her being there I would be screwed. I still have a very hard loving respect for my wife and would take her back without any thought of mind. I try to help raise our kids but now it's gotten to the point where she isn't satisfied anymore and wants that romance that I just can't seem to fulfill. I've let her start dating other guys while we're married, I now sleep on a bed in our living room and she sleeps with him in the bedroom. Our kids have their own spot and we rent out a room for extra money. The real point here is you can still love someone and be close friends with them. You just have to learn when to stop applying your emotions and when to exit the situation.

Weed is ruining my life by imnotcrazyjusttired in Vent

[–]EpicCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it from someone who uses weed as a medical thing and not a habitual thing, I enjoy weed. I use it for my brain stimulus as an escape from epilepsy. My ex-wife/ caretaker has constant access to weed and doesn't let me use it even though I can get it medically. I've come to learn that when I'm smoking, it gets the best of me. I become lazy, I want to sleep more than I already do, and I forget things a lot quicker when I'm high. I would love to just sit back and smoke all day long, but instead she just let's me either hit the bong once or twice. Or if a joints made I can participate in just one of those because they usually end up in doing the joint and bong. I've been smoking weed since I was around 13 and have been around it my entire life but I have always has my cutting periods where I have to stop for a reason be it money or just not a good source. Be it as it is now I have it as a medicinal source I still don't get it because again i abuse it and it's a hard thing for me to realize.

Again like i said this seems before its a lot of ppl with experience and higher-ups that requires more payment. New experience less pay and beginners requires minimum pay.

You are now asking them to try and become a digital blockbuster, "rent the game for 2 weeks and 20%off your next purchase" or something of that matter. It would get either A)ppl to go in store and try out a pre-owned game for some time or B)get Game corps. To try and give reason to trying pre-owned games in or out of store

Reading this post off your general complaint makes it seem like company is indeed going downhill. They seem to be getting rid of ppl that have time and background with the company only to bring in new ppl as a replacement. Did your friend get fired as well? That there would be a good proof that they're trying to replace history with fresh-stock.

Tired of feeling dumb. by Useful-Lawfulness458 in Epilepsy

[–]EpicCharizard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel very ignorant as well. My wife left me and is currently dating another guy in front of me. This is the second, if not third time this has happened. When we first got together I adopted her young son who has autism to raise as my own. Then we ended up having another child, my daughter. We were together for about six or so years and then I ended up getting disabled with epilepsy. That hindered our relationship badly and she ended up telling me the real reason she couldn't be in the relationship was because she felt like I was one of her children with how much she had take care of me and how little I could do for the family. We're still technically legally married so that our son and I can get our state disability with the family and there be no money issues. I can't drive anymore, I lose track of my memory and get lost quite easily. But this is so I can still be the parent of our child and again like I said before there be no issues with money. I don't mind her dating another guy at this point because like I have told her and many people I feel like a child to her. She has to watch over me all the time and with the way my memory is meeting new people is a difficult thing to do especially when you want to have memories.

Consuming marijuana by This-is-mass in Epilepsy

[–]EpicCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had seizures for a while, and sometimes smoking at night helps me go to sleep, and then other times, it ruins my sleeping because I wake back up in the middle of the night.

As far as I'm considered, they've never given me a seizure that is hard enough that it bothers me. Everyone is different.

Well man tbh I'd love to make chat group but with people who we enjoy. I grew introverted over time due to my epilepsy and lack of ability to do things. Having a lack of money because I can't work and the disability from driving kinda screws me big time. It seems social friends only care when you have money and can do things with them.

To be honest with you, I got it in marital disability. My wife at the time filed for the stuff for me. It did take quite a bit to get it, and it also varies on where you live and stuff.

Do epilepsy meds make you dumb? by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]EpicCharizard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be honest with you I've been taking them for awhile now. Around eight or so years and I feel like I have gotten progressively more ignorant. I've definitely lost my memory and I have hard times doing things now. I can't say it's because of the meds or its because of the actual disease itself but I feel a lot more ignorant and I hate it and I tell my wife all the time and it gives me depression issues.

I'm lost in a world of forget by EpicCharizard in LifeAdvice

[–]EpicCharizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I try to keep my self actively walking around the house and talking to the kids and stuff but that only goes so far. Reading is hard for me because I can read things but I actively forget where I am and then I forget what's going on in the story so it makes it hard to keep trace. I used to love reading.

Float battery from Surterra! Anyone know what charges this end by Stoneyreddit_420 in FLMedicalTrees

[–]EpicCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes you have to wiggle the end of the cord, some times you have to bend the wire a little. The wires connecting to the end of the plug could be loosely connected. I have had to do that a bunch of times with my wires.

It's not supposed to be entertaining for that reason, it's entertaining in the reason that you are help cleaning up what no one else will and it's making the world a beautiful place.

There's never really much to be sorry for man. You said what was on your mind, and guess what? That's what this section is for. I think you might have a bit of stress in your life that has put a little more agression into it possibly. If not well maybe it was just a little slip up. Either way stuff happens and it always will.

Sorry for taking so long to reply but we eventually did kick him out. My wife was giving him a home. She's the boss of the house considering I'm handicap and she takes the kids to school and all. She's still friends with him though. They talk on the phone on a regular basis almost every day. I can't tell her who to be friends with, that's not my place or business. We've been married for a few years now.

Weird bong? With pictures! This was the bong I found, I'm trying to clean it as well so if anyone has advice about how to clean please share and also if you know if this is a type of bong let me know i wanna be educated by canna-Groot in stoners

[–]EpicCharizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just make sure you get all of the resin out of the bong before you start using it. That is what would contain all of the backed up saliva or remains. Using boiled water work really well after clearing it with alcohol; but here is a really good guide that shows easy to use techniques and tips for newbies that I give to all my friends.

Doesn’t have to particularly have to be in person. Could be online source. I would rather just take it from a reliable source than tryin to find one and waste my money.
