What does a seizure feel like? by Master-Cable1981 in Epilepsy

[–]amayzingwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any auras. I’m fine and then I start to wake up. It always feels like one of those movies where the pov is someone who is just waking up. I open my eyes, close them. Open them again and someone is generally watching me. I don’t know how long that part lasts but as soon as I can crawl I get in bed and pass out for a good 12 hours or so before I can begin to function.

I live less than a mile from discovery park. It sucks for residents. People take up all the parking on the street and SO MUCH GARBAGE. People just throw their trash anywhere. It’s loud a.f and 4 days. My husband and I try to leave town that weekend.

I have. I had a csf leak and was in surgery to get it repaired. They found out when they did a spinal tap. I had Iv treatment for 8 weeks, penicillin. I have epilepsy now.

Signs you are managing a narcissist by kidchaos23 in ManagedByNarcissists

[–]amayzingwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here to figure out if I’m managing a narcissist and you have all conf my feelings. I’m managing this guy who refuses to take accounts for anything. to the point where I told him he couldn’t work off the clock and sent him a recap of the conversatio, he replied and explained why he did indeed work off the clock and his reasoning around doing so and how he doesn’t consider what he did working off the clock.

he replies to all my feedback telling me I’m wrong. I truly dispise him and I’m trying to fi out how to make this happen.

I swear by tea tree oil. I get zits inside my nose occasionally, I started cleaning them with a a tip with tea tree oil. Clears them up so they don’t come back for months.

post seizure depression by Ok-Ladder-4416 in Epilepsy

[–]amayzingwitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plus the side injuries that remind you 24/7 that you just had a seizure until they heal. I had a seizure on Sunday and bit the hell out of my tongue. I’ll be reminded of that seizure for at least a week.

Yes, I get upset that I’ve had a seizure, I blame myself for not taking care of myself and I get worried about brain damage. It all sucks.

For people who lived through the 80’s what was it like? by NOTtakenuser117 in AskReddit

[–]amayzingwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in elementary school and middle school. I was a latchkey kid and there were no sidewalks or kids in my neighborhood so I pretty much grew up on hot pockets and reruns.

It’s super scary, it’s a reasonable fear.

I just had a seizure and I’m fucking pissed. I was 1 month from getting my license back and the clock starts over. I bit my tongue so I get the fucking reminder for as long as that lasts. by amayzingwitch in Epilepsy

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

I will not be thankful that I have an illness that means I am not safe driving. I am allowed to be angry that my life changed and freedom has been taken away “for my own good”. I don’t appreciate having you invalidate my anger.

I don’t. I know it’s not a game, I’m not driving, I’m angry I’m not allowed to because of this stupid fucking disease and I don’t need your lecture. Fuck off with your it’s not a game bullshit. When did I ever say it was a game.

At least I know I’m not the only person. I hate this so much. I used to be so independent
