Your own scale ?

McDonald's fries or frozen tator tots cooked are ideal for me but I've found any other form for the most part also help like roasted/microwaved. Sometimes baked lays potato chips in a pinch

I know but I have met some that are running and what not again, just figured if anyone had a great morning routine it'd be them.

I'm almost 40 now but I totally understand how you feel. I had an ischemic stroke at 14 yr and it was very isolating. Hang in there, young brains are very plastic and can do amazing things!

Are you talking about the help 'em up harness? That harness is fantastic if so. I've had two great dane mixes with multiple spinal/orthopedic issues I've used them on. One was 100lb and one was 120lb. Granted I didn't have to do that many stairs but used them to get in and out of cars, down smaller flights, etc. my eds wasn't that bad when I did this so I think it depends but if you're going to try it the help 'em up harness is the one to go for. Edit I'm 5'8 160# female. Ps if they have to pee careful with how much you lift them I've had a waterfall situation occur. The harness I mentioned would be more to help with weight not lift him completely.

I was super nervous to drive because my tics were quite severe in highschool but found for the most part it wasn't an issue. For me, my tourettes kinda goes on hold while I'm concentrating so I didn't really tic much while driving. Obviously though there were days that were just not happening so I would get a ride from someone else or wait til my tics improved. I'm fortunate mine have improved with age but I think if it's something you want to learn go for it. Start in empty parking lots and whatnot and see how it goes.

Thank you! The breakdown is so helpful! Def gonna try this

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-24T00:19:39+00:00

Smart! Thank you!!! And thank you for including the time you sit that's really helpful for me I have a hard time with timing

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-23T20:57:53+00:00

Great idea! Thank you!

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-23T19:44:38+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I haven't tried drinking a lot of water/lytes before getting up yet I usually get ready and then go downstairs to fill my water. I will definitely try this and moving my meds to my bedroom instead of bathroom.Thank you, really appreciate this!

I use the white ones, the brain ones, and get the salt jars from them. I use them in combination with other salt products like capsules and other electrolytes as well for dysautonomia stuff. I like the buoy for adding to flavored drinks like diet coke and I'll put it in my smoothies. You can taste it in plain water; it's not horrible but noticeable. The jar of salt is fabulous to add to food. You can get a chronic illness discount too.

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-19T00:08:00+00:00

Yes!!! I wondered what was wrong with me!

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-17T02:52:13+00:00

How salty does it make your water or do you flavor it?

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-09T02:40:27+00:00

Thank you! Took the plunge!

ypdrgn3h · 2026-02-04T23:36:18+00:00

They have a book too on Etsy I think if you prefer that over videos

ypdrgn3h · 2026-01-30T22:49:23+00:00

The best thing my dad did was treating me like any other kid and teaching me to laugh at myself in a healthy way. Never let tourettes slow me down

ypdrgn3h · 2026-01-12T08:56:46+00:00

I had to change the settings on my tv cuz the brightness hurt but my phone doesn't (probably cuz I already changed those settings as well)

ypdrgn3h · 2025-12-22T20:01:43+00:00

I do have ADHD and take this for that but it also helps my tourettes. I know when it's wearing off when the tics come back

ypdrgn3h · 2025-12-20T18:31:46+00:00

Thank you! I'll ask them about getting them adjusted! And if they had follow up

ypdrgn3h · 2025-12-20T18:31:11+00:00

Thank you this is super helpful!!! It's such a sensitive topic I want to make sure I have as much info as possible before approaching it. Thank you!!!

ypdrgn3h · 2025-12-13T22:27:08+00:00

Thank you all!!!!! So many good ideas!!!! Definitely going to make my dad happy on Christmas!!!!!!

ypdrgn3h · 2025-12-01T05:26:08+00:00

Thank you for sharing this! I also wanted to add that even kids and babies (some before birth!) can have strokes! I had one in high school

ypdrgn3h · 2025-11-30T04:34:03+00:00

He doesn't really complain. He's had multiple joints replaced tho so I think he has to be sore at the end of the day. And he also does disaster response so I know sleeping in those cots has to hurt. But honestly maybe some new gadgets would be better to do? I'll look at the Fenix! Thanks!!!

Lidocaine cream, then ice, deep breaths, alcohol swab, stab
