we do not need to engage with all posts. sometimes people can be stupid on the internet and it's fine, actually. we do not need to correct people for making grandiose statements based on knowledge they acquired at age 11 and haven't updated since <- said through gritted teeth

Looking for information on how pre-existing motor tics (specifically head-jerk) would interact with a severe head injury within an hour of the injury being sustained. Does anyone have any experience with this?

All I'm finding is information on the interactions between stimulants and tic disorders or a general 'yeah tics can get worse within a few weeks/months after severe head injuries' and that's not what I need for what I'm working on.

I specifically want to know what that looks like tic-wise in the moment to a medical professional or onlooker who can recognize tics (could it trigger tics? exacerbate them? not effect them? How would a head-movement tic be influenced by a head injury?)

I'm acting in a drill where we are given fake injuries. I am currently signed up for a serious head injury. However, last time I participated, it triggered my tics, and I didn't prepare my acting to include how that would have affected my injury. This time I want to be more prepared, especially if I need to change what injury I have due to physical acting limitations.

(Even if you can't help, reblogs/boosts are appreciated! I have until March 25th to get an answer, and my research over the past two days has come up with nothing helpful.)

Whether I can enjoy a movie theater experience is a roll of the dice. Like. I was completely fine after seeing a sweeping scifi epic with sound so cromchy it made the theater screen ripple in places, but a movie about a dog that I saw in a smaller theater left me really overstimulated and burnt out and on guard. Wild.

There are not enough words that can express my frustration my the healthcare system when it comes to treatments for migraines and especially for refractory migraines. My migraines are considered refractory, meaning they don't respond well to treatment. I currently do two treatments at the same time, botox every three months (paid by the hospital I go to) and anti crgp injections once a month (paid by two insurances). I do not make a lot of money. I currently am not making any money because I am on medical leave. There is another treatment option that has been presented to me that costs around $600 a month. I cannot afford that. That prescription has been sitting in my file for over six months while the company that is supposed to facilitate access to that medication repeatedly asks me when I have started taking it. I have never filled the prescription because nobody seems to want to help afford that medication. I sent a frustrated but very clear email about my financial inability to take that medication to the company last week and they called to clarify the situation. I have to work in order to afford treatment to be a functional human being, that's how bad it gets without proper working treatments. I have tried every class of medication in the past ten years including the most recent class, anti cgrp medication. That stuff is expensive and getting financial help for it is a nightmare. I basically had to threaten my insurance company into even acknowledging the reception of my request only to be thankfully approved. I am chronically ill, work full time and actually am the main earner of my two person household. I am tired of dealing with people who don't understand the burden of chronic illness and the stress that comes with dealing with everything related. Medical treatment is not a miracle. It comes with side effects, it does not cure the condition, only makes it bearable. It is exhausting, because it is invisible people don't understand

PSA: On Internet Trolls on Reddit

I want to begin this post with a disclaimer. I know that it is so easy to forget that not everything is about you. More and more, I’m realizing that next to nothing is actually about me, especially when people are treating me less than kind. Our behaviors are responses to stressors and lately, life has been incredibly stressful. It’s been stressful for so long and we’re all anxious for a victory,…

[chaoticautie]

As someone who is somewhat of a “veteran” of the online ND community, I’m disappointed in the lack of positivity and love for lesser known diverse cognitive conditions, and the opposing abundance of posts about “cures” or outdated criteria or treatments for those conditions. So, without further ado, I want to say hello to anyone with any of the disorders I’m listing, and give them the love and support that hardly anyone else in our community has… Shoutout to:

People with Down syndrome

People with Fragile X

People with William’s syndrome

People with dyslexia

People with dyspraxia

People with dyscalculia

People with dysgraphia

People with Prader-Willi syndrome

People with PANS or PANDAS

People with aphasia

People with a TBI (traumatic brain injury)

People with chronic/early onset mental illnesses

People with cerebral palsy

People with FASD or were otherwise disabled via other substances in utero

And many, many more I may have forgotten to list (but still support and love, I will add more to my list)

You are all beautiful and wonderful, and you all deserve so more love, appreciation, acceptance and support. You are just as neurodiverse as the rest of us, and your voices deserve to be heard and amplified.

I love you all ❤️

Breakthroughs in Paralysis Treatment: Exploring the Latest Research and Therapies

Introduction:

Paralysis is a condition that affects millions of people worldwide, impacting their ability to move and perform everyday activities. However, there have been significant advancements in paralysis treatment in recent years, offering hope and improved outcomes for those living with paralysis. In this blog, we will delve into the latest breakthroughs in paralysis treatment, exploring the cutting-edge research and innovative therapies that are transforming the lives of patients.

Neural Regeneration and Repair:

One of the most exciting areas of research in paralysis treatment involves neural regeneration and repair. Scientists are exploring various approaches, such as stem cell therapy, to stimulate the regrowth of damaged nerve cells and restore function.

Exoskeletons and Assistive Technologies:

Advancements in robotics and wearable technologies have paved the way for innovative devices like exoskeletons. These externally worn robotic suits provide support and assistance to individuals with paralysis, allowing them to stand up, walk, and regain mobility. Breakthroughs in exoskeleton technology have led to lighter, more flexible designs that offer greater comfort and ease of use, significantly enhancing the quality of life for people with paralysis.

Neurostimulation and Electrical Implants:

Neurostimulation techniques, such as deep brain stimulation and spinal cord stimulation, have shown remarkable potential in the treatment of paralysis. By delivering electrical impulses to specific areas of the brain or spinal cord, these therapies can help restore or enhance motor function. Ongoing research is exploring optimized stimulation patterns, personalized approaches, and advanced implantable devices to maximize their effectiveness.

Virtual Reality and Rehabilitation:

Virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a powerful tool in paralysis rehabilitation. By creating immersive virtual environments, individuals with paralysis can engage in interactive therapy sessions that promote movement, coordination, and mental well-being. VR-based rehabilitation programs have shown significant improvements in motor function, balance, and overall physical and cognitive abilities.

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) offer new avenues for communication and control for people with paralysis. BCIs enable individuals to interact with the external world by translating their brain signals into actionable commands. Recent advancements in BCI technology have allowed for more precise and efficient control, enabling paralyzed individuals to operate prosthetic limbs, navigate computer interfaces, and even restore hand dexterity.

Conclusion:

Breakthroughs in paralysis treatment are opening up new possibilities for individuals living with paralysis. From neural regeneration and repair to assistive technologies, neurostimulation, virtual reality, and brain-computer interfaces, researchers and medical professionals are continuously pushing the boundaries of what is possible. While these advancements are undoubtedly exciting, it is crucial to remember that each individual's experience with paralysis is unique, and treatments must be tailored to their specific needs.

Combined with the posts this links to, this is probably the single most comprehensive post-concussion syndrome resource I've ever seen. It even acknowledges that great as their treatment program is, it might not be accessible to you personally, and so links to other treatment centers they recommend & a post on how to figure out if a concussion treatment center is good. If you or someone you know is suffering from post-concussive syndrome, check this out!
