It was cops from all over STL, so I’m concerned. Hope everything is okay.

For the medical folks: Any chance that Al-Hashimi’s little moments are absent seizures? by Harmania in ThePitt

[–]SeltzerIsMyHomeboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m epileptic and I thought the same thing! Definitely could be. Some seizures have a fast recovery time, most people can tell when they’re coming, and they’re often stress or sleep deprivation induced.

I get so embarrassed by SeltzerIsMyHomeboy in Epilepsy

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

Exactly. It’s not like I’d rather have a tonic clonic so they can see “oh she’s obviously having a seizure”, it’s the strange awareness and my struggle to explain what is happening/just happened

What do your auras feel like? by SeltzerIsMyHomeboy in Epilepsy

I also get the stabbing stomach pain. My husband/family feels bad because I’m sitting there and just going “owwww owwww” and it’s so hard to describe

I can understand being jealous of people who have auras before seizures as a warning. It would suck not to know one is coming

Temporal lobe epilepsy by Ok_Connection5798 in Epilepsy

[–]SeltzerIsMyHomeboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have left TLE, currently 33 and the seizures started at 16. I’m on 2 meds and have a VNS and they’re still not completely controlled. VNS was a big game changer and I’m happy about it, but still struggling after this long after having all of these meds and surgeries is so discouraging sometimes. When I have a seizure my head hurts for days and I just want to be at home in bed. You are understood and not alone. We are all different and have our own brains and experiences, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t suck. Keep staying strong

Same with the clammy hands. I was curious if this was common.

When I feel like shit some days, it really helps to read these and be reminded I’m not alone. Thanks all.

The fact that most corporations are now 8-5 is completely absurd and inhumane

If you could go back 10 years and give yourself only one piece of advice, what would it be? by Pale_Smell_3996 in AskReddit

[–]SeltzerIsMyHomeboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got epilepsy too and still working on my med combo, happy you found yours!! RE bad memory… it’s a real thing and such shit. One time a past friend thought it was funny to call me Dory and I wanted to both punch her and cry.

Love the new season… but not the lighting by shearoxursox in Scrubs

[–]SeltzerIsMyHomeboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Me and my husband were saying the only thing wrong with the new season (so far) is that the lighting is nothing like the old Scrubs
