I've been reading different post from different rooms? time past and recent. I clearly am not experiencing half the things that you guys are going threw. I feel horrible for burdening you with the petty issues I've been experiencing. I have nothing to offer other than prayer to help anyone. I dont belong here. Im not sure where I belong and I'll probably never find it. So having said that, Im going to say farewell to you all, and thank you again for being supportive even tho my issues were trivial (spelling). I pray that a cure or med is found, so that each of you can live your lives to its fullest. I also pray something is done 4me2, thats if they ever find out what wrong with me (my guess, "crazy"). I'll be fine, I bought a "BIG Journal book. I can write my thoughts, issues etc down & give em to the dr's and let em try to figure out what wrong with me. Im tired of reading, guessing, explaining, complaining, sorry starting to babble again and seeing stars, geesh. GOD Bless! & take care : )

That's a great name by the way I know quite a few people with it, including several family members.

You really don't need to go anywhere. Just because you think that your case is "trivial" doesn't mean that you can't be/don't belong here. My own case sometimes seems trivial in the light of others because I am under control quite well in comparison to many others....yet, I do have my lovely meds to thank for that. *raised eyebrow*

We'll always be here for you, no matter what. Talk to your doctors, and see what they say. And yes, a journal would be a great idea, as it will help document things for the doctors to see and understand.

Take care, and (((HUGS)))

even if you are not having some of these symptoms it is still a good source of information about dealing with epilepsy , I hope you find that reading more is worth your while, you may run across something that just may help you out more than you thought , best wishes :)
 
You never know when an interesting post may come your way- and there's the creative sub forum and the Brain Games forum- I think there's something for every one. There's the company too! Please reconsider your decision to go.

I'm with Nicholas, you should stay. Though I am probably one of those who is less affected, and maybe some people on here wish I would go instead of nagging them about the rules on said word games. ;) But I pray for those who have it worse, and also for those who have it not-quite-as bad but still need a little support now and then. Because you can't only have people on the site who are worse off than you - because not everybody can be worse off than everybody else all of the time!

:agree: I hope you will think more about staying! :hug:
 
Mary,

I hope you change your mind about leaving the forum & I definitely do not think that you are a burden.
Each & every one of us on this forum have a different story which is what makes this such a great forum as we are all here for each other.

As others have mentioned there is a lot of other fun stuff to do other then just talking about epilepsy eg - the different games, poetry pages etc.
For me I find that the best way to deal with life is to see the positive things in life & have a really good sense of humour. I often post different jokes or funny pictures on here to share with everyone & if my jokes or funny pictures can make at less one person smile then I am happy :).

I think it's great that you are keeping a journal as it does help.

You need to stay! Anytime you can go someplace and just hang out with the other people is a good day :) We are not having a contest on who is worse than the others. It may seem trivial to you, but so what? Not everything is doom and gloom :) I would like to have you stay!
 
husky mom,

Is right this isn't a competition about who's the worse off with there seizures.
Everyone feels differently about there seizures weather it's 1 a year or 20 a day.
acceptance is important. It helped me a lot.

Oh my, thank you all so very much. I was having a pitty party. I feel so alone in this. My family and few friends are stand-off-ish. Im so confused, scared and at my witts ends. I've been reading more about the posibility of seizures after having a right posterior communicating artery ruptured aneurysm. Im jumping ahead. I didnt know that there was other things to do here. Thanks for sharing that with me. I look forward to reading your jokes, poems and progress. I have to schedule one more appointment with a neurologist after I finish with the cardiologist. My fears are all over the place. Im afraid of a second aneurysm, seizures and everything else that goes with this territory. I have to stop being so quick to give up. I laid down to go to sleep last night thinking that there are 4.9 billion people (or more) on this earth, how can one person feel so alone? I have a lot to learn dont I? Thank you all so much. : ) I feel better knowing Im not alone. I slept well after reading your post. I woke feeling better. Thank you. I didnt imagine any one responding to that post. I expected a few good-bye's and take care of yourself. : ) A Big Hug to you all!
 
Mary,

I'm so happy that you have decided not to leave the forum.

I am lucky enough to have the support from a great family & good friends but I don't think you are the only person who feels alone about their epilepsy or don't have much support from their family & friends.

Please keep us posted with our your appts go.

I'm glad you are going to stay. Everyone has those times where they just feel like giving up. last year I had a hard year going from one medication to another. I just wanted to give up. I hope the drs can give you good answers and everything turns out well for you! :)
 
I am so glad you decided to stay, too, maryltyme! We are all valuable members of a unique community.

(aw shucks, Nicholas ;) )
