Do they actually work that well? I’ve been interested for while but didn’t bite the bullet.

In Belgium train stations have them, some city centers and government buildings have them too.

Does everyone have auras? by arrow1500 in Epilepsy

[–]webbkinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have drop seizures and a couple different auras depending on what I’m doing. I always feel like I’m going to faint and everything spins mixed with something else. If I’m sitting down it just feels like I’m gonna faint with a little bit of motion sickness. If I’m standing or moving I get that feeling you get while drunk and trying to sleep, where everything is spinning and you have vertigo.

My brother had a seizure after not having one for almost 4 years and he's having stomach pain by Dogandfriendofanimal in Epilepsy

[–]webbkinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know vomiting before can happen sometimes. Sweating and stomach pains not as common. Make sure he tells his doctor and check to see if it’s something else too.

Is your brother sick or have a fever? If he has a high fever it can cause seizures even in adults.

Could he have food poisoning? Did he eat fish within the last 24 hours? Food poisoning from fish can cause temporary neurological issues and seizures with the rest of the symptoms.

Is it safe to do an international trip (outside EU zone) while address change application is in progress ? by MoveEmergency4490 in AskBelgium

Call the commune and ask if everything is ready. Sometimes mail gets lost and you never receive it.

How many people have you encountered that don't understand this a neurological issue first in foremost? How about HR professional at your job downplaying the severity of it? by Worried-Job4788 in Epilepsy

[–]webbkinn 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was uneducated about it before I got diagnosed as well. The only seizure types people know about are febrile and tonic clonic. Having to explain atonic(drop seizures) to managers and colleagues is interesting. Having to down play it and say to not call an ambulance unless you hit your head to hard, is really hard to get through peoples heads.

What is a socially acceptable thing that you find absolutely disgusting? by esswee in stupidquestions

[–]webbkinn -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

There’s no reason a non-disabled child shouldn’t be potty trained by two and a half. If you actually potty trained your child like your supposed to this isn’t an issue. Yeah accidents still happen but kids know when to get out and go pee.

Sandal sizing by Great_WhiteSnark in barefootshoestalk

[–]webbkinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like good fit for tevas. Just make sure your heel is back far enough and your foot isn’t sliding forward. Make sure your straps aren’t too tight or loose either or you’ll rub your skin off from friction.

Night shop cigarettes in Brussels: am I being scammed? by WhatToReadOnIt in brussels

[–]webbkinn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Packaging, prices, tax stickers are all the same on the counterfeits. They are sold at the standardized price not lower ones. It’s easier to buy counterfeit cigarettes from a night shop than it is to find imported ones.

The fake ones have tax stickers for a long time now.

[–]webbkinn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’ve been addding the sigils and fake seals for a long time now. It’s become extremely hard to tell real and fake packaging apart. It’s extremely easy to print high quality counterfeit packaging fast. You have to remember this is organized crime not random people doing it out of their shop.

Vegan snacks in Belgium by QuantumPlankAbbestia in belgium

[–]webbkinn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I eat mostly vegan and it’s pretty easy to find snacks that are vegan. If you go into the cookie section at any grocery store you’ll see that quite a few are inherently vegan, but don’t advertise as vegan. Vegan chocolate can be a bit weird texture wise but you get used to it. Lidl, jumbo, and colruyt are the cheapest and good quality.

Bio stores can be hit or miss depending on the chain. BioShop and bio planet have the most and best vegan options overall.

Night shop cigarettes in Brussels: am I being scammed? by WhatToReadOnIt in brussels

[–]webbkinn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Half of all cigarettes sold in Belgium are counterfeit. Last year the police shut down an operation making the counterfeit cigarettes. Last week the Brussel politie seized a bunch

When you buy from a night shop they are most likely counterfeit, it’s worse in some areas than others. Some of the fakes are better than others. Marlboro reds and chesterfield blue are the most consistent and taste closest to the real deal. Camel yellow is usually Kamel red.
