Doctors have shuffled and tried different medicines but seizures never stopped. she gets relief for 5-6 days maximum and suddenly seizures start comming again. my question is why seizures are not being stopped, even her doctors do not give justification and seems confused. Several MRIs, EEGs, Tegral level, Video monitorings etc have been made but nothing firmly diagnosed. except they say that this is not Epilepsy as it does not starts at this age without any reason or history. Thanks bucky, mcdannel, industry_, lindakflo, jacqwiw and all for your concern. what shud I do Please help.. it is very difficult to handle her.

I mean beyond being organized? I know someone who writes down EVERYTHING, even things that occur weekly like garbage pick-up and milk delivery. To-do lists, long-term goal list, daily lists, lists for the kids, and post-it's everywhere. Is there something bigger going on here?

She is 35 yrs old, but has kept lists since childhood. It seems to have gotten worse over the last several years.

When she isn't able to write things down she is always asking people to "remind her" of things. She either will not or can not trust herself to remember anything.

I believe I've been mistreated, it happened about 8 years ago though... so I don't think there's anything I can do about it. I was in a hospital once for depression and they made us take showers and press a buzzer so they could check us (while we were naked) to make sure we put enough soap on ourselves. I was about 11 then and I just started going through puberty. I felt very violated, but I never said anything because I thought this was normal...

Is this wrong???

I don't have any money for a lawyer and I don't think theres any thing we can do about it this late, I don't even remember the dr's names.

I'm just wondering if this is mistreatment/abuse? If it is would this qualify as sexual abuse in some way??

I'm 30 years old with a degree in psychology. I did two years of graduate school before I realized counseling wasn't what I wanted to do. I have a lot of interests, but no "real world" experience in any of those; at least nothing that will lead to a career. My lifelong dream was to be a pilot, but I'm not allowed a pilot's license because I have a history of migraines. I feel that there's something more for me out there, but I feel that I'm too old to start anything new, and I should just be satisfied with what I have. What options do we "stuck-in-a-rutt"ers have?

When I was a child I experienced a lot of horrible trauma. Part of the way that I coped and survived was by disconnecting myself from my body.

I learnt to take my mind and all that is my essence away. I'd drift far away so I wouldn't have to experience what was happening to me.

This is a part of childhood that my subconscious mind holds on to and projects into my present life. A defense reaction that once was my ally, now a nemesis of sorts. My interactions with people and my environment are susquently hindered as my default position always seems to be set on the urgent "Vacate You Body Now".

I feel like I'm stuck here and I'd like to grow past it. I no longer need this tool from my childhood but my brain is so paranoid that I'm still under threat it won't let me rest.
Any advice you could lend would be greatly appreciated. Be Nice :) I'm a magic flower trying to grow. Water me with goodness.

These people are basically weaker humans. Other human beings are physically and mentally healthier than them, and should therefore be the ones to continue our population. Disorders and a lot of other things are genetically predispositioned and if it's in your genes its more likely to happen to you. Do you think that this is a an okay thing to believe? Isn't it normal with all species that the stronger live to spread their genes and create a better species?
