Re: Trigger warning mentions of health / seizures
Hey @Summerjune15, it's donnerkebab if you remember me at all, cause of the username change on here.
You're not overreacting. That is an understandable and terrifying fear to have. It's not dramatic at all, full stop, and you should not ever have to feel like your concerns or fears are unreasonable. You 100% deserve to be taken seriously.
Doctors and paramedics can truly be assholes at times, i know that one from personal experience, and for them to not take your fears and concerns seriously is bang out of order. But there are options available to put in complaints possibly, given how they're treating you, and it might make them take it more seriously, if that's a path you want to explore potentially? It really sounds like an immensely traumatic experience to struggle for breathe during these seizures, and i'm so sorry that nobody is taking your concerns as seriously as they should.

I feel fine about now, this happens to me every now and then so I'm not exactly under a lot of stress right now.
Re: TW suicidal thoughts Lingering anti-depressant effects & nothing feels real
I just have to accept what I usually laugh at doesn’t make me laugh. I’m quite disturbed by my continued lack of feeling, body numbness etc. I’m so disturbed by it all. I feel so hopeless. I feel like it’s getting too difficult.
Re: Anybody want to vent or chat about anything? w/c 19.01.26
Sounds like such a stressful and tricky situation @so_very_tired, thanks for sharing that with us. I'm hearing that the physical pain has reduced and the conflict is over now, which is good to hear. How are you feeling after what happened I wonder?

@eylah The pain is pretty much non-existent so I'm probably not going to bother calling anyone, but thanks for the advice.
@Redemption I'm fine the conflict is over now, so I'm fine. Thanks.

Got into an argument with my brother, he hit me round the face and yanked my pyjama hoodie. Now my throat slightly hurts and he stretched my hoodie.
