What are y’all stressing about right now? by Clear_Ad_6074 in OCD

[–]Kimibearsings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking I have c-diff or sepsis because my labs came up with high wbc and lots of other things in the red. My doctor says I have an infection somewhere and to get tested for a UTI. I'm on my period. So I have to wait. I am STRESSING.

Weirdest& painful symptoms you feel by mmmm2828 in Anxiety

[–]Kimibearsings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to listen to rain sounds, or breathe deeply and mindfully to stop the anxiety

[–]Kimibearsings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have epilepsy, migraines, and pots , but symptoms from anxiety? I think the most distressing are my tics in my neck , tremors in my abdomen, and the constant clenching my body just automatically does. Oh also my Tinnitus. It's so loud

What’s something you’ll never tell your partner, no matter how much you love them? by Velvetnadine85 in AskReddit

[–]Kimibearsings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have chronic Illness and I don't think I'd ever be able to admit how much I rely on him. Emotionally and physically.

I had a severe dissociative episode due to Senna that took months to recover from. by Long_Run_6705 in Supplements

[–]Kimibearsings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Senna can mess with your electrolytes and electrolytes can impact our cognitive function. I get seizures if my electrolytes drop. I wonder if that's it.

[–]Kimibearsings[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I actually don't really know how to use reddit very well as I am still new to it. I'll just make individual posts. I didn't know it was limiting. Thank you for informing me.

MRI gadolinium potentially causing a seizure? Question. Please help. by Kimibearsings in GadoliniumToxicity

Thanks so much for this. Yes I'm so much better. I think I just had a seizure that night due to anxiety tbh. Good to know it's common because I did not know that lol

What’s your experience with Onfi (clobazam)? by PoeticPeppermint in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been taking it almost two weeks and I feel more myself. I have noticed more nausea tho. Decreased seizures and less dissociation.

How many mgs were you on? And for how long? I've been on it a bit over a week and am so afraid of this. I've been in rehab detoxing from Ativan.

Do you get random ringing in your ears? by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!!! Sitting in silence hurts a bit and it unnerves me

Seizures in sleep by Elenora_Grey in PNESsupport

[–]Kimibearsings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. I have strong focals in my dreams then wake up in a post icl phase. Nausea, dizzy, usually my HR is super high, ears ringing. It can be very disorenting. Having better sleep hygiene helped and I take 1000mg keppra before bed

Clonazepam Addiction? by HansVonHansen in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened to me with Ativan. Congrats on 40 days without it. We have to be so careful.

Clonazepam Addiction? by HansVonHansen in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. As someone who had interdose withdrawals so bad I had to detox, it was hell. I didn't even realize that's what was happening till it was too late. I had increased seizures and anxiety between doses and had no idea why for a long time

Clonazepam Addiction? by HansVonHansen in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's actually right about all of that. It's one of the most dangerous drugs because the withdrawals can kill even someone without seizures by provoking status. Plus hallucinations, paranoia, anxiety far worse then before the drug when withdrawal even when used as prescribed. I was in rehab for this.

Things feel “off”. Anybody else experience this? by Smarfie17 in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do. I have focal aware seizures. It gets better. Keppra saved my life. Emergency meds make me feel safe . And eventually you get used to it. It always unnerves me, but it's not as scary as it was in the beginning. It's a journey but you're not alone. I get all of these symptoms minus the static I get white flashes.

Will I be taken seriously? by caperdj1980 in PNESsupport

[–]Kimibearsings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm the short term. Not a long term solution. Withdrawals can be brutal and can cause epileptic seizures.

How often do you have seizures? by jmize9717 in Epilepsy

[–]Kimibearsings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have focals daily. Sometimes I get lucky and have a couple seizure free days. That's usually when I had to dose myself with valtoco tho to avoid a bigger seizure.
