Hugs all.
thanks for the hugs. i was gone by like 9pm.
Is it good
i havent watched it as well @Lottie5433 its on my list of films to watch on netflix. i believe theres three films in the series.
ooh nice. maybe when i feel like it ill watch it too. i know its an 18+ series but im turning 17 soon anyways so one year wont make much of a difference @Lottie5433
yeah true. i was 15 and watching breaking bad.
yeah true. my parents dont really mind. i mean i used the internet ever since i was a baby and they didnt really monitor my internet usage. so its the same for watching 18 films. i was born in 2008 so i was able to get the first ipad when it released. i guess i counted as an ipad kid lol.
You don't always have to hide things but I understand why you do as I used to do it so much in my life.
You never let people down. And if people are making you feel that way then they are in the wrong not you.
And it's okay to cry. Crying has been made to be seen as some sort of weakness, when in fact crying is not a sign of weakness at all. People who cry are just showing that they have pushed through so much to the point where they now are wanting some support. You crying shows how strong you have been and your now letting yourself release emotions that have been in your body for a long amount of time.
oh i see, so theyre short seizures which make you lose awareness of your surroundings. even if they're not long seizures that still is a bit concerning because it affects both sides of the brain. but i understand where youre coming from. @Animalloverb
And yeah, I mean I’m a fair bit older than you but we had an iPad as kids, probably from like 10 onwards we had a family iPad which we were allowed to use for an hour a day. What we were doing on the internet wasn’t monitored, but I knew I’d be in trouble if I was caught watching anything too old at that age.
Well yeah it's a concern but neurologist can't do that much for absence seizures. They are short so they Don't starve my brain from oxygen for to long. And I can go straight back to what I was doing before the seizure and not even know I had a seizure. I do get warn out when I have a cluster of them. Just like how I did on Friday, I had about 14 in half an hour, and through the whole day I was just in and out of them.
I basically stare into space for like 30 seconds, my brain is like shut down, I can't see or here anything. I am unconscious but don't fall to the floor during them or anything.
oh my god! 😻
@DonnerKebab it wasn't today it's only Tuesday till Fridays. I'm ok thanks, was supposed to be looking at a car for someone but they declined the offer so found another one, might be going to a viewing of it. I've decided to leave the football group to, I've left the what's app group, a few reasons which I won't get into coz it might seem judgemental but someone goes in too hard, injured someone 3 times which caused them to leave like once ok but 3 times like he understandably got angry the 3rd time and left. I feel like it's only a matter of time till I would have got injured then the other reasons so decided to leave. Anyway hope you're ok? Done anything nice? I'm just waiting for the support group.
@DonnerKebab it's not like threatening violence or anything, maybe the the odd rage but it's more just agressive as in someone goes in too hard like he's hurt multiple people, in general there's been a few injuries, someone's got injured and still out to this day, it happened in my first session. I got my finger busted, minor but might be a matter of time since something worse happens. I might have to get it x rayed at some point. Not really, I might do something else like buy a used bike from this local place, used to go to him when I was a kid but stopped as I stopped riding a bike and I saw him a few years after, I think he was upset that I don’t go in his shop anymore so I might go in, give him some business. Hope you're good anyway.
I’ll never get onto level 3 with them
