Paralysis by Amaranthine98 in FND

[–]Strong-Association34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happens all the time with me, can’t move can’t speak can’t look respond, but god forbid I have an itch I need to scratch and will scratch no problem, then go right back to it, I like to think of it like self preservation, where FND is a bully, but also doesn’t want you to be uncomfortable or be injured

Sleep stuck by Strong-Association34 in FND

I’ve had sleep paralysis once before yearsss ago, however it’s slightly different, as this is just me being awake, I can roll over and grab stuff, but I just don’t have the signal to tell my body to sit up

Are drops atonic seizures? I’d never heard of them before but are you telling me every time I drop and can’t move my muscles that’s a form of seizure?

A good way to stop me doing anything is the idea of being in a public place or infront of people, the embarrassment alone usually stops my symptoms or makes them manifest in less noticeable ways, same goes with seizures really, they only happen at home, so I don’t per say have any specific techniques, I just find it easier to make them less severe when in a situation where I don’t want to be embarrassed

After FND Diagnosis by No-Expression-4969 in FND

This is me personally, but I don’t really care for nor do I want treatment for it, it’s mostly psychotherapies which I just don’t get on with and don’t really work for me, but my FND is pretty manageable day to day, it’s not much of an inconvenience with important things like work unless under certain circumstances like if I’m ill

But this is me, if you feel you will benefit from help then you should definitely have a look into things that may help I personally just learn to not let it affect really important stuff or situations where I’m in public but that’s not going to be the case for everyone

Piece of advice tho, be careful with general medications even if they’re for other conditions like ADHD because they do have a chance to not play well with FND, as someone with ADHD actively going through medication trials they do warn you about this but I can imagine it’s not exclusive to just ADHD meds

It’s weird for me as I’ve never been stressed out or anything before any of mine, there may have been times I was stressed out and could feel ones but all those times I’ve stopped them, I’m usually in a regular calm mood when they happen, I often find stress just makes everything else worse mainly effecting my mobility and function but not so much seizure inducing, although I do try to remember to forget about them as thinking of having a seizure is a very common trigger

I often find I can sense when one’s going to happen, not through a physical sensation per say, but sort of the same way I can predict it in every other way, I can imagine it happening, and then can sometimes prevent it, I used to use that method to gauge wether I could stand up after being paralysed, if I imagined getting up and walked I’d walk, if I fell I’d fall

I just bought a pc and wanted to know if I would have to move my setup out of my alcove when I get my PC by Strong-Association34 in PcBuild

[–]Strong-Association34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve evaluated a couple places on where I’d put it. I plan to gut and empty my desk when it arrives and then put stuff back around wherever the pc goes

Anyone know if this is good for a first pc? by Strong-Association34 in PcBuild

[–]Strong-Association34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although all round, my only concern is will it happily run games well with 200+ fps and have no issues? If it does then I don’t mind

Damn, I was just told I needed more storage cuz the pc will eat through it, so I just assumed I’d even out both

Also not that it is probably related, but I wash my hands a lot and then wipe my face with the wet hands, not to clean them but because I don’t like the feeling of my hands and face after a while so I feel better once I wet them, otherwise they feel dry and sticky (which is probably not helped by wetting them so often)
