I Need Some Help.

[PinkFloyd]

During 7th grade two years ago, I had two epileptic seizures. One was on Novenber 8th, 2012 during a fitness test in Phy-ed; and the other was about a month and a half from then on Christmas Day. After the first one, the doctor said that it was probably no big deal and that I wouldnt be put on any medication. After the second, I was told that I would be taking two 500 miligram Kepra pills (pills that calm my nerves down, thus preventing a seizure) a day.

Since then ive been seizure free. However, it has been about two years since i started taking the meds, and the doctor wants to see if im eligable to be taken off of it. He thinks that it's a good idea because some kids around 12 (I was 12 then.) that are growing rapidly fast have seizures; maning that i dont have epilepsy and that i grew out of having seizures.

Well now that im gonna be taken off the meds, some of my freedoms will be taken away for health reasons.

bike riding (not happy about it, but I can live with it)
having to ride the chair lift with an adult at our ski/snowboard hill. (I dont like that)
NOT ENGAGING IN ANY SEXUAL ACTIVITIES :mad:
not being able to be up in my room for long periods of time without being checked on
Not being able to get my Learners permit on my birthday. (Jan, 25) :(
Okay, about the one about sex... I can't drop sex. I know youre gonna tel me to do it anyways. I can't. I was told that orgasm will be too much for my brain and ill have an 80% chance of having a seizure.
And about the being unable to be alone in my room thing without communication... I cant do that either. I do so much private stuff up here, it isnt even funny..

All of this will be in efect for the next 4 months.
Do you guys have any ideas on how to get around any of this?

So work yourself up for about five minutes and then, without orgasming, just stop and it still feels really good just to play around. I know sometimes it will seem hard not to stop but its your health that's effecting it. Question, does this effect sleeping. Like do you have to wake up every three hours or something to talk to someone. And anything else, like the private stuff. Have like a short little thing that you can tell out to your parents like "I'm still alive!!!" Or text them or something. I don't really know. It would be some sort of system you'd have to set up with whomever is you parent/guardian. Lots of luck.

This isn't going to sound very helpful I know. However...

You can't really get around any of the above. Its something you're going to have to live with and accept. Its one of these things that is going to be hard for about the first Month. However after that you'll get used to it. I know, no sexual stimulation and contact will be hard...but really it is in the best interest of your health. Plus, you can't mess about with a number as high as 80% its pretty much a given that you'll have another seizure.

As for what Jimmy above said. Working yourself us isn't a good idea, simply because it is hard to stop and will just leave you sexually frustrated. Its better to ---In a sense---quit cold turkey.

I know its going to be hard and I can't honestly imagine what you're going through but the guidelines set in place are for your own benefit.

Sorry to hear that you are going to go through this but it is something you'll have to comply with for the next 4 months.

Its all in the interest of your own health.

I know none of this is going to sound particularly helpful but its something you've got to hear and I am only saying this out of your best interest.

Yeah, the thought of a walky-talky has popped into my mind. Also with the sex... It wont be very effective.

Thanks for the input. :)

Okay. So the SEX is the main problem. I really can't help you here. I don't think Troy should risk your life in such a way for something as small as an orgasm. I know it might seem tough but I really hope you don't think your whole life is worth an orgasm. Or worst. Your mobility. I don't think I'd risk it. YOLO.
