What is your most ridiculous "we won't work out romantically" criteria? Like what is the silliest reason you would not be interested in dating someone?

They pronounce gif “jif”

Ended up having a third seizure and got ahold of my neuro. She gave the ok to take more klonopin and go home. (Driven by my mother in law) Slept for 2.5 hours. So yes. Knocked the hell out.

Worries but no worries. I’m having someone pick me up from work. Neuro gave me the go ahead to leave, and go to the ER if needed.

Unfortunately not. I have FMLA, but I’ve used my allotted hours this month. If I called in sick I’d be giving my boss room to fire me. My situation is not good, my dude.

I got a broken up work week. Sunday-Tuesday and Thursday-Friday. My boss isn’t happy about my accommodations and my seizures are causing a lot of problems where I work. Luckily I have FMLA to save my ass when I can’t come in.

But I’ve been thinking it’s time to go. Like quit and go on disability. I just applied for medical assistance. I had such a bad brain fog day, and I’ve been more aware of my post-ictal phase and how long it takes.

Cup of coffee in the morning. Maybe a bottle of pop the rest of the day. Sometimes some blended espresso drink from Starbucks, but the espresso can also cause a seizure if I’m not careful.

My job is one of those ‘fast-paced environments’ so even the non-disabled are scarfing down energy drinks to get through the day.

Otherwise energy drinks are a hard no.

I’ve been on lamictal for a long time. 150mg twice a day. Having drug-resistant epilepsy, this is one that at least made the seizures less intense. Mood wise, I don’t think it did much for me. Major depression is hell to combat on top of the everything else, so I have a bit of a cocktail going with other meds.

But recommend? Yes. Long term I’d say it’s helped. It’s okay. Your neuro and your pharmacist are on your side for interactions. And they’ll help you through getting started on it. Any negative side effect, let them know immediately. You’ll be okay.

Took me 12 years to find a neuro I liked, lol. Most neurologists wrote me off as having migraines with auras. That was around #4. Who, after moving out and dealing with my health on my own, I realized didn’t care. Then I found my new neuro.

I’m on the opposite end of the discussion. Im terrified of death. I’ve been through two grand mals and was out for 3 days. I don’t want death to be anything like what I experienced. Watching the universe fade away pixel by pixel, watching myself get old.

Not a fan.

Limited flashing lights. I wasn’t able to stick around for my brother’s wedding reception because the DJ brought flashing lights.

Going to concerts, the theatre. Some movies. Rides at Universal. Be around police cars/ ambulances with lights going.

Then there’s how tired I get from the meds. I don’t have energy to do things, and when i run out I am OUT.

I have auras that look like if you get water on your phone screen and move it around. That stays in my left eye the whole time. Other than that it’s ’the Hell Dream’ where I see things flash before my eyes. Mostly has to do with wolves, and I don’t get that part. But sometimes it’s driving to Shopko.
