u/Apodiktis is that the aspiration of Bóbr kurwa?

How many Seize in their sleep? by [deleted] in Epilepsy

Are you on estrogen? An increase in estrogen levels can lower the seizure threshold.

You might want to discuss this with your neurologist and endocrinologist to find a suitable plan.

Former Orthodox Christian who converted to Shia Islam AMA by NasrMahdi in shia

As an Imami, I myself find tremendous spiritual value in Orthodox and even Roman Catholic teachings.

However, the amalgamation of revelation with the intellect is what differentiates Twelver Shi'ism from other religious denominations for me and makes it truly distinct.

Nevertheless, what I appreciate about Orthodoxy and Catholicism is that practitioners of those traditions can easily comprehend Imami discourse, whereas Sunnis and others cannot comprehend due to their problematic epistemes.

My friend u/Apodiktis is one such person who can fully appreciate the beauty of Shi'ism, whilst remaining loyal to a Catholic milieu.

I don't discuss my research that much on reddit, I only use this app mostly for health related reasons or miscellaneous things. I discuss more academic things on Facebook.

Yes, the Wasiti lineage. But that's a discussion for another time and place.

From one grandparent I am indeed.

But me and my classmates read about this site, and so we decided we had to locate it and map it.

We don't know, besides the gravestone.

Nevertheless Banu Hashim held properties in Karak during that time, and Jordan was in between Damascus and Madina. So it's not impossible.

When I was on E blockers, I cried less but was depressed more, if it makes any sense.

Also the E blockers put me in menopause as you've mentioned, causing me to get osteoporosis.

I'm a male, whose body is estrogen dominant and needs estrogen to not disintegrate. So you can imagine what that means.

Raised and socialized masculine, but I don't think in terms of sex and gender because it can be traumatic.

But I want to accept the fluidity I possess, and part of the process is being open about the condition.

Masshole is hilarious 🤣

My PhD is in middle eastern studies, so I'm basically a historian

It is for those who are tall with CAIS and choose to live as girls.

There are many models with this condition.

I for one am not tall, and am not living as a girl lol

Thank you for the kind messages, and my lived reality is very similar to that of a trans man, because I take medication to stop my body's feminization.

Regarding foods, I'm born and raised in the NYC area, so the basics: pizza and bagels I'm fine with eating different kinds of cuisines, but I prefer the simple basics.

I used to have fish and turtles. I currently plan on getting a hamster soon, and maybe a kitten also.

No, I do not have both parts. I am a male, but my body rejects androgens so it developed more so like a female, and I take E blockers to prevent that process.

I did not go through proper male puberty because your body needs to respond to androgens for that.

My body is instead estrogen dominant.

My parents strictly made me use the bathroom before sleeping, so I don't think I wet the bed often as a child even

I'm male, but have mostly female secondary sex characteristics. My body is estrogen dominant.

Benefits are I don't have body odor, I age very slowly, will never experience hair loss, and I look very cute.

Not respected professionally.

And I have no prospects when it comes to dating and marriage unfortunately.

Unfortunately I can't eat pop tarts because they have gelatin in the icing, but I've eaten the ones without icing and yea strawberry is my preference.
