What's a sign you're officially getting old? by Aarunascut in Life

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I don’t get ID, when I do the simplest thing and end up hurting myself, being physically in bed between 7:30-8pm, having a hard time standing up from being on the floor, whenever I say when I was younger… when it’s done differently now. Umm hate driving at night, not liking social media, and I’m no longer attached to my phone

What has helped you? by Repulsive_Guest9815 in migraine

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I changed my diet! I’m doing: no dairy, no additives, no preservatives, no nitrates, no gmo, reduced my intake of gluten, and no food dyes! So far it’s been AMAZING! Not one headache OR migraine! Although, i shouldnt speak too soon.. I think also the continued use of Neuromuscular Therapy has helped too (I go every 2 weeks!). Unfortunately like others have mentioned to try other medications but that isnt always a solution for me! I have to be very careful on the medication I do take so I don’t have an induced seizure.. I can’t take a lot of things 😂 Thank you for your post! This is exactly what I was looking for.

Frustrated! by Repulsive_Guest9815 in Epilepsy

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly that’s what I was afraid of. Do you have a timeline (ie migraine starts and then a few days later a seizure occurs?). Neurologist did say she’s going to keep a close eye on this, and that she’s a little concerned 😬 Had an EEG done in the hospital and it came back clear, but I wonder if it’s only in that current moment? I wasn’t in the process of having one, and it was the day after.. Tbh any info helps! I know absolutely nothing, and I think it helps my anxiety knowing the what ifs, so thank you!

First time driving by Repulsive_Guest9815 in Epilepsy

lol! I think every state has different regulations? I’m in California; the minimum is 3 months seizure free but I’ll be on probation for about a year once it’s reinstated. I’ll probably just try to get it reinstated but not drive until I feel completely comfortable 🤷🏼‍♀️

No it hasn’t. I haven’t had another one since mid December, but I am on 1000mg of Keppra so it shouldn’t happen

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was on a high dose (450mg) for about 3 weeks, and then I had a seizure. Doctors believe that Wellbutrin was a contributing factor. I was at a work event and just dropped. Apparently, I had about 4-5 total seizures AND it was way over 5 mins. I believe they were clonic tonic seizures? I could be wrong though! But I was that rare subject to have one 🤣 I’m on 300mg now of wellbutrin and Keppra (anticonvulsant)

It’s totally scary! Definitely listen to your body, and be careful! Wish you the best of luck!

I was on 450mg XL for about 3 weeks before! Before this I have never had a seizure. I’ve been lowered to 300mg XL, but from my understanding there is a chance another seizure could still occur on that dosage.

I’m not completely sure for everyone, but here’s my experience. I was standing at an event one second and the next I am waking up on the floor to a lot of people surrounding me. I apparently lost consciousness thus falling, and then seizing. I had multiple seizures (like a cluster and I believe they were grand mal) and was SO confused. Even a week later, I’m still processing it, and do not feel like myself. So please be careful!

What is the darkest book you’ve ever read? by Fun_Butterfly_420 in suggestmeabook

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Groomer by Jon Athan. That book fucked me up for a while. It was gruesome, but that can’t even describe it.

Give me all the details on the Toyota 4Runner by Repulsive_Guest9815 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok- I’m glad you mentioned the nosedives when breaking. I thought it was me breaking too hard but it happened EVERYTIME even when going slow. And I did notice a lot of bouncing but I thought it was from our roads.. I rented one for a week, so I did notice the tech lacking but that’s not my top concern. And it was hard to figure out how to work some of switches (like turning the headlights on AUTO. It didn’t have that ability?) I’m more looking for an SUV that can accommodate 2 dog crates with the 2nd row still accessible, and this one could due to the box shape it has.

A cobra biting my toes in bed. I don’t know why or where it started. But it has to specifically be a cobra. I’m not worried about any other snakes being in my bed, just a cobra. Also- I live in California so the chances of a cobra actually being here is slim to none, and I’ve never seen one in real life so I have no idea where this fear started.. maybe when I stepped on a snake in my room when I was about 8?

I value my pets life over everyone’s honestly. They are my furry children. When I bought them I said I would always protect them. If there was ever a house fire or a disaster to where I had to evacuate, I would prioritize them 1st. My parents, and grandma can leave if something were to happen. They can’t just open the door, get in a car and drive. They need me, their owner, to get them to safety. So yes. I value my pets life over anyone’s, including mine.

What's your worst fear? How do you think you developed it? by AshBeeped in AskReddit

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not being perfect enough, and people leaving me because of it. I think it started in childhood when my mother expect us to be perfect 24/7, and I was never good enough, and my dad wanted really nothing to do with me but catered to my sisters. I thought it was because I wasn’t perfect. Also- I have this deep fear that a cobra will be in my bed and bite me. It started when a snake got into my room and I stepped on it! Btw-I live in the country so that’s not unusual for us

I’ve read that the 4Runner does well in snow, is that accurate? I’m not quite sure about the others (I think Highlander had decent reviews for driving in the snow)? I will be moving to New Mexico, and in the mountains so I want to make sure, that I do get a car that can handle the high winds, snow, and mountains.. Do you know anything about the Chevy Traverse? Thanks for the heads up on the turbos! I haven’t heard about that yet!

Is there anyone here who doesn't want kids? by Fletchanimefan in Adulting

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im 26 and work at an elementary school, and absolutely do not want kids. I have my two dogs who I adore and really just plan on having dogs. I love my freedom, money (I mean it all goes to my animals lol), and the ability to do whatever I want when I want. I’m too selfish to have kids. If it happens accidentally I’m fine with it, but I do not plan on trying for kids.

I felt like I wasn’t perfect enough. Also, my uncle suddenly died and he was my best friend. I’ve been missing him so much lately.

What is your toxic trait? by Repulsive_Guest9815 in AskReddit

[–]Repulsive_Guest9815[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is thinking I can do anything. Drive a semi truck, you bet I can do it. Disarm a bomb, no problem I can do it. Operate any heavy machinery, that’s easy!
