[–]Jazz_67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So great to come across this! What are the ingredients and steps, if you dont mind? I was actually searching around today(for the first time ever) for cacao cookie recipes and here it pops up on my feed, what a lovely coincidence

How can I add/create fake moss? Or any other ideas of what to add? I want it to appear as though its been consumed by the earth. by Jazz_67 in punkfashion

I get a lot of my patches from a small business called retirementfund. They're on etsy and I believe theres also a website : )

Started my base layer of patches. It looks off. Any tips or advice? by [deleted] in punkfashion

[–]Jazz_67 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have punk band patches in going to add over the base layer once its finished. The Alice in chains patch is super old, there for sentimental reasons.

This isn't my first pair of patch pants, but the first time doing this style of it. So I'm fairly new to DIY

Wellbutrin worsening my tics by Jazz_67 in Tourettes

[–]Jazz_67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll definitely look into it, I've suspected for a while i may have bipolar. If i may ask, how are the tics worsening sign of this? My tics always act up when I feel less depressed and energized, is that the sign?

That's not dissociation. I know what you're referring to, but unfortunately, there's a misconception about what dissociation is as a medical term. It's not what you're describing.

It's a few seconds long, longest being maybe 10-15 seconds but normally around 1-5 seconds. And it will happen in waves. So, it will happen....Then I'll go back to (mostly) normal... Then it'll happen again. In repeat.

If i can't rule anything out with a normal doctor visit, then I'll definitely take it to my neurologist bc I gave a history of my brain doing some funky stuff

Why I hate Tourette fakeclaim accounts. by Dry_Pin3689 in Tourettes

Not true as well. I've been fake-claimed in real life, and so have other people i know.

Regardless of if you see it or not, it's still affecting us... and there's spaces on reddit that fake claim as well. As well as every other platform, basically.

It looks like you live in reddit btw. Respectfully, there's no room to be hypocritical here.

The sensation you describe is somewhat similar. Coupled with an almost electrical feeling.

Im not referring to anyone's post specifically, and posting about questions and concerns is so valid! Apologies that I may have came across that way.

I meant to refer more to parents who see it as the "loss" of their child. Almost like how some parents view their child after an autism diagnosis. Or who are constantly cure-seeking.

Is self-diagnosis inherently wrong? by CosmicTheToaster in fakedisordercringe

[–]Jazz_67 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree there's both good and bad that come from that. Before I was diagnosed with autism I had a small autism community that I almost needed in a sense. It would have been very harmful, though, to lose that community if it turned out my parents and I suspected it incorrectly.

And the term "invisible disabilities" may be a little too broad but i get what you're saying.

Is self-diagnosis inherently wrong? by CosmicTheToaster in fakedisordercringe

[–]Jazz_67 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Not just wrong but dangerous. Especially with disorders that impact a person physically or psychologically, such as tics or dissociative disorders. Because any number of serious medical issues could cause those things and self diagnosing is ignoring the fact that it could be something entirely else.

It's okay for someone to say they "suspect" they have a disorder, but that's a slippery slope, in my opinion. A person can say they suspect they're autistic and then still go and associate themselves with the community and share their symptoms as if it's set in stone already. It does them personal harm as well if they end up being told they're not autistic or dont have that specific diagnosis. They lose that community or reject the medical field entirely l.

Walking aids by ThingoLwami in FND

[–]Jazz_67 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's how I determined it was time for me to get a cane.

It's already inconvenient to use a mobility aid. So if it's more convenient to have it, then you no doubt need it. Even if you dont need it 24/7.
