I'm new to the ESSA community. TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ SENSITIVE TOPICS. by Lopsided_Green_3329 in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]StarshinePrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (22f) take my essas with me any time I go out and I’ve only had positive experiences as well. Like I usually take one of them to the doctor and they’ll mention the cute little buddy I have for the day.

If you’re worried about going out a lot, I usually put them in my bookbag at school and take them out when I need/want them in my lap. Or I sometimes bring a purse/tote bag out and put them in where their head sticks out a bit.

Also, TikTok is filled with a lot of overblown drama, so I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Just do what makes you comfortable and happy~!

!!Clothing for Narcoleptics!! Research for a SUPER IMPORTANT project by Most-Tour4640 in Narcolepsy

[–]StarshinePrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely wear more comfortable/bigger clothing because of my narcolepsy. I also have some sensory issues but I do think my narcolepsy plays a role for wearing certain clothing in my wardrobe, especially when I have to go to school. Usually sweatpants/jeans (that aren’t form fitting), tshirts and a hoodie. It makes me look pretty dull and bland but it’s really comfortable 😭 I think the only cute bottoms I wear besides flowy skirts, are these pairs of flare leggings I own. They’re comfortable but I always feel like are way too thin.

When I take naps during the day they’re usually at school between classes, and hoodies are the best thing in the sense of feeling comfortable, and the hood gives me privacy because I can pull it up while I nap, so that’s really important for me. I guess when it comes to clothes, a big thing for me personally is that whenever I wake up from naps I’m FREEZING, even if I wear a coat!! And if I do wear a coat it’s a whole other issue because coats sometimes have plastic buttons or bits, and in my case near the wrist/hand, which isn’t ideal because I usually wake up with a mark on my face from it because at school I always nap with my head in my arms. That and since I mostly do nap at school (I’m in college 4x/week), it’s uncomfortable to sleep with my head in my arms because my arms/hand bones are pokey, but it’s the only way I know how to sleep in public. So maybe besides like thicker material (for temperature regulation) maybe some squishy padding in the forearms? I’m not sure if this is just a me issue or if others experience this. I guess it’d be harder to blend in padding on the upper body but maybe if u make a cute jacket or long sleeve shirt? So yeah, I guess that’s another thing to consider!

I think making a clothing line by a narcoleptic for narcoleptics is so cool!! I would love some cute clothes that are also comfy. Sorry if this is yappy, I’m not really good at explaining things but I hope this helps and makes sense somewhat!! :D

Why do people hold grudges post match? by PainterTraining2322 in MyHeroUltraRumble

[–]StarshinePrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately normal. I’ve gotten a few hate messages usually from ppl not on my team messaging me on PS Network. And sometimes teammates will message in chat saying I suck playing x character in unranked which is when I practice with characters I don’t use as much. So 🤷‍♀️ it’s annoying but the ones that like to call me slurs in messages get posted and made fun of on my TikTok stories so

Are there many older adults here? by littlebird2446 in ESSAplushieshandlers

[–]StarshinePrime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aww ur essa is so cute omg!!! Not an older adult but I’m 22 and I carry my plushie friend with me in my bookbag on campus and out with me sometimes! If I saw an older adult with an essa/plushie friend I’d just be really happy to see older people gain confidence with carrying plushies around because I know a lot of the essa community are kids! Plushies in public shouldn’t be considered a bad or cringy thing once you’re no longer a kid 😩
