I have Tonic-Clonic seizures every 2 weeks. I'm 51 and have been having them for 10 years now.
I started microdosing 3/10s of a gram and I still had my seizure every 2 weeks, but I went 4 months without a Tonic-Clonic seizure. https://www.magicmushrooms101.com

Last night, well I guess early this am I was awoken due to a dream that I have had before 1 other time, but this time I felt completely different. It felt as if my brain was rapidly firing vivid images still and like it was tremoring out of control. I have have had slight brain tremors before but nothing like I felt last night/this am. It was about 330am. It took about 15ins for calm to restore and I was not able to go back to sleep. More like I just laid there with my eyes closed… read more

Absolutely not. It's bad enough I could crash seizing, I can't imagine hurting a family member, or even a stranger. But I understand the urge. I understand just wanting to be independent. I'm tempted… read more
A couple of weeks ago, my doctor increased one of my medicines - Dilantin, and my body did not agree with that. This ended up making my body toxic. I was in in the hospital from 2/5 - 2/7 for my Dilantin level was so high which also made me dehydrated. I am doing better now, but not myself yet. My doctor is eager for me to get back on Dilantin, but I would rather wait at least a few more days for I think my level is still not as it should be.
I am still having pressure feeling on my chest at… read more
My neurologist took me off Dilantin years ago. He said a certain side effect would cause cancer, liver and kidney failure. I'm currently taking lamotrigine which is the generic version of Lamictal… read more
