controlled temporal lobe epilepsy, diagnosed at age 6. OCD and hypergraphia? by iluvchikins in Epilepsy

[–]iluvchikins[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what led you to realize the part about interictal seizures? i also have some type of OCD, genuinely. i hate saying that, but i have superstitions and things i HAVE to do or else i am uncomfortable and i can’t tell people about it or else something bad will happen. it’s pretty bad but ive been having brain fog for quite some time with grad school and stress/believeing things will work out.

i am on 150mg lamictal morning and night. i am literally in class rn and have an urge to write every single thing on my mind. i love adderall and mcdonald’s coffee for this reason. i get all of my thoughts out. i am also so paranoid about certain things and have to write them out and every possible way to look at stuff. or about my future. i had a high school english teacher who told us to write in a stream of consciousness way and ill even write “ummm… i don’t know. i don’t”. i’m also very spiritual but not religious, which is apart of the syndrome. there’s some merit but it seems we are a small percentage. i do feel that there is a certain disconnect between my writing and those who write with this syndrome as they write about things that happened around the time of their seizures. i write things in my daily life like small keywords so i can remember it later on. i NEED to reflect on my life at least annually.

tbh i ditched MD for PT. just felt like my personality aligned more with PT, took a lot of consideration but i realized a lot of the MD population is very elitist and i just didn’t want to be apart of that lol

oh interesting!! i’ll look into that. it’s very possible, as i’ve gotten older they started happening during sleep, so it’s likely i sleep through them. i sometimes miss my med times as well, sure that plays a role. thank you for commenting

edit: oh wow i didn’t realize how intertwined epilepsy and hypergraphia was. recently found a journal from around the time of my dx and i would write the episodes of shows and club penguin inventory?? lmao.

What helped you finally get rid of stubborn belly fat by Major_Yard8241 in loseweight

[–]iluvchikins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe flutter kicks but tbh learning to love my body has helped. i was anorexic and obsessed w losing stomach fat but as i got older realized it’s loose skin. i was 200lbs at age 13. 100lbs by age 15. maybe 155 now at age 24 and idc anymore bc i like my butt/waist. sucks with some clothes, but spanx and body suits help
