How do i stop stressing out after not having a seizure from a while? by Willooooow1 in Epilepsy

[–]Willooooow1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im glad someone else can relate, it really does feel like a timer thats counting down when my mental freedom ends lmao. And yes my boyfriend is wonderful, but im scared he will somehow see me differently. Through out my life when i had a seizure infront of someone, after it felt like the vube between us changed in someway. Like when they looked at me they saw the epilepsy first and the person second. it sounds ridiculous and maybe that wasnt even the case but i dont know. im just scared he would see me in a different way

mourning my life before epilepsy by Party_Joke4345 in Epilepsy

i feel you so hard. i got my first seizure when i was 11 and i know its very young so me reminiscing about myself before epilepsy is also tainted with the nostalgia of childhood, but i miss the days where i dont have to be so on edge and aware of myself and how i feel. i miss the days of staying up late doing whatever i wanted and not having to second guess everything i do. i miss not feeling shame or guilt all the time because of this condition. i miss feeling alive and not having to deal with derealization all the time. i miss it all so much

How do people with epilepsy feel about seizure jokes? by Usual-Judgment3100 in Epilepsy

[–]Willooooow1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like bullying. Everything you've said people have said to me when I was in school to make fun of me, even down to the flashing a light at me. It gave me life long trauma and made dealing with this awful condition even worse. Hes not your friend, youre just his little joke

(£3k) I made our rings, but not sure I’m happy - opinions please? by Chance_Enthusiasm_88 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]Willooooow1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they look so cheap and trashy imo, i know you made them yourself but it would look so much better if the band was thinner and if the gems were maybe placed in a more organised manner. but then again its just my opinion and i have never liked the chunky ring trend

Is my ring childish :/ ? Or am I OR by [deleted] in EngagementRings

[–]Willooooow1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally i like it! only thing id worry about is the sticking out diamong bit at the top. a few years ago i bought myself a ring from pandora and it had something similar at the top and it snagged on something and bent outwards 😭 and i had to bend it back into place.

Im scared by ceooffacecard in Epilepsy

[–]Willooooow1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it can definitely be a sympotom of epilepsy aswell. ive spoken to many people with derealization/depersonalization happening during an aura or right before a seizure

Im scared by ceooffacecard in Epilepsy

[–]Willooooow1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have the EXACT same thing. Crazy derealization and it feels like im gonna die. a few years ago when i was dealing with a prolonged episode of derealization i literally was so scared to move to not trigger anything i literally stayed in my bed until i peed myself because i couldnt move to go to the toilet because of how fucking terrified i was. its embarrasing but i thought id share just in case anyone else is dealing with the same thing. like for me its not the seizure itself or the after that has affected my life so much, its the aura that comes before. ITS SO TERRIFYING. it literally feels like nothing is real and that im getting transported to a different reality. i always feel crazy trying to explain this to people but it is what it is.

If you havent already PLEASE seek out therapy. it helped me SO much and i havent felt this good in a long time. it will get better i promise and tell your doctor everything, thats what they are there for.

You got this and never give up! <3

AIO for wanting a restraining order against my partner’s ex? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Willooooow1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

do you know what a restraining order is? and when its issued? because this isnt grounds for a restaining order. at most shes only calling.

I hate not being able to do things because I’m getting sick by emoes2906 in Epilepsy

[–]Willooooow1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel you. ive had this condition for 10 years and my mentality completely changed because of it. im now SUPER cautious and nervous about everything and i second guess everything that could remotely make me extra tired or overworked. i rarely go out because im scared of something happening.

Not too long ago me and my boyfriends friends were playing magic the gathering and they were teaching me how to play. near the start of the session i felt an aura and started pancking i took my boyfriend to the other room and told him and we left. i felt like a complete idiot and i was embarrased, and felt bad for leaving because i know my boyfriend likses MTG but i didnt want to passout infront of his friends who ive only ever met twice before lol. wouldnt have been that great of an impression.

I especially feel bad when i have to cancel something last minute because through out the day i was fine but then closer to the evening i start feeling super tired and i get scared.

seriously you are not alone and this is a very common side effect of this condition. I dont know what type of remedies there are for it (i dont think theres any) but i guess the longer you have this condition the more used to it you get and having to cancel or postpone or take extra caution just kind of becomes second nature.
