I get abdominal migraines and I have something called cyclic vomiting syndrome which is pretty much what it sounds like

 
I don't normally like to talk about it much, I am actually deaf in my left ear. My doctor and hearing specialist thinks that its most likely I was born with it (I didn't find out until I was six, now I'm twelve) than having a hearing loss between birth and the time I found out. My doctor says that the most common kind of person to get this is a blonde hair, blue eyed female (I don't know why but that's apparently the most common). My sister also has the same hearing disorder as me.

 
I know someone on the Autistic spectrum and although they do have difficulties, I know they just need to learn and we should help them. Don't ever assume someone suffering from the disability can ever get better, they may if they got a bit of help to support them. People with Autism/Aspergers may not always understand but we need to help them understand and eventually, they will learn. They'll always be autistic but they will be able to deal with it soon and be the happiest, best person they can be.

Myself? I know I have physical difficulties. I struggle in Pe, food tech, deign tech and anything that involves thinking fast or coordination. Only mildly though! I first realised something was wrong when I was in Pe, doing badminton. I couldn't hit the shuttlecock, I couldn't catch it either or anything. All of my friends could and I felt like a complete loser. I wanted to cry because nobody understood. My skills lay in other things such as logical subjects eg RE, sociology but I struggle in designing things. I'm clumsy, forgetful and constantly spilling things but I'm not dumb. Frustratingly, a few people gossip about me in school saying I'm 'weird' 'a freak' 'stupid' etc when the only thing I can't do is coordination activities. They can't exactly be that smart themselves if that's what they think...

Yes, it's annoying, yes, I get judged for it but that's who I am and regardless of anything anybody says, I am absolutely fine up there in the brain. I know what I'm talking about and my slightly deformed muscles won't stop me being myself.

 
I have asperger's, but I don't consider it a disease or disfunction.

I like to think my brain has linux installed, and nonautistic people have windows.

I am not social. I stim, I get nervous, I have sensory problems, I am smart, I work in great detail, I am rigid, I have weird rituals, I walk funny, I have little theory of mind, I am passionate, I can fix a car, I play and collect virtual pets and troll dollz, and I am very happy with me.

 
Insomnia ever since I was very, very young (probably hereditary as both my parents seem to have it), which fluctuates in severity.

I used to get migraines really often; they've diminished tons in the past couple years.

I also feel really cold all the time and especially get crazy-cold feet (my feet feel like they have frostbite even when I'm sitting in my sixty-degree living room). My mom is pretty sure I have hypothyroidism (coldness is a symptom of it along with depression and delayed growth and development) and I agree with her; she's going to get me checked soon at some point [because doctors' office is booked up until like January]. That's likely hereditary too, since both my parents have been put on thyroid medications at some point.

I have something called cyclic vomiting syndrome. It causes me to vomit uncontrollably for honestly unknown reasons. Sometimes it's stress, sometimes lack of sleep, sometimes I just get really excited and it sends me into an episode as we call it. An episode will last from a few days to a week. I've had it since I was 14 and each day without vomiting or extreme nausea is a VERY good day. I do take medication to help 'abort' the episodes so I am able to work and lead a rather normal life but it does get the best of me sometimes.

 
*looks at my previous posts in this topic*

What tha

Ok, I've never really been to the hospital except once when I dislocated my arm. e_e So who knows, I could have anything or I could have nothing. :p

There are times when I have violent mood swings. For example, just the other day my BF said he got a Play Station 4 for his birthday and I felt burning anger because I thought he should have got Tamagotchis instead. I was typing in capital letters with lots of exclamation points, saying every single thing wrong about him, describing all the times he ticked me off, and saying he was just pretending to like Tamagotchi because he knows I will break up with him if he stops liking it. :|
When these kinds of fits happen, I'm shivering and crying, my head hurts intensely and every breath I take creates a weird gasping, choking, squealing sound...hard to describe. :p

One of the only things that can help me escape an extreme depressed mood swing is my Tamagotchis... sounds silly but that's when happened when I was having the said rage against my boyfriend. My Tamagotchi Friends evolved and POOF! I picked it up and started happily chatting like, "Oh, I got Knighttchi again!" and then randomly being overjoyed.

Sometimes I swing out of my terrible mood and then go into a...very weird...state of happiness. I feel all giddy and post "random" stuff like, "RAINBOOOOOOOWS!!!!" and "DID YOU KNOW THAT CHEESE IS YELLOW!?!?!?!!111" What else...

**looks through chat history**

Ah.

"IM GONNA KILL MYSELF BUT AT LEAST I WILL GO TO HEAVEN BECAUSE GOD LOVES ME. YOU WANNA COME FOR A VISIT!?!?!! **kills you with a rainbow** YAY HELLO WHO ARE YOU!!!!!!!!?????"

They're not very nice for me but I don't remember much about them anyway, unless I look at chat logs and read what I typed before. ouo' It's exhausting really, and certain things can set me off really bad. I am still happy most of the time, and the mood swings just make life a bit more...eventful... I guess ;/ I'm still happy the way things are, and I wouldn't say I have depression at all. :) Just... IDK... sensitive emotions? :|

 
I have weird mood swings every so often, but when that happens I usually avoid communicating with other people and often start writing in my journal.

The other things that help me with moods are sleeping (sometimes) and working out. I almost always feel better after going to the gym and swimming or something similarly exhausting.

 
ugh lets see. I have:

Bipolar

Schizophrenia

OCD

ADD

Orthostatic Hypotension

Hypersomnia

Social Anxiety

Dyslexia

Severe Depression - I used to cut and think about suicide regularly because I'm so useless and fat

So thus concludes my list of my problems...

However, I will say one thing... My back hurts. All the time! My neck too. I can't stand up straight and I'm as stiff as an old man. I do not know why because I haven't been to a doctor.
Back/neck ache is usually because of not doing enough exercise and/or sitting with a bad posture. My dad used to go on the computer for 6-10 hours a day and as a result he had really bad backache for about 20 years. It stopped being so bad recently, but I remember when I was younger he would get in a bad mood and yell at me because his back hurt so much. >_> I suggest doing more exercise and less computer/reading/writing. I'm not a doctor, but this is what my dad's doctor told him when he was suffering from backache.

I actually do have a disorder. Yay. All these posts saying I don't and I actually do. :p It's basically some random thing nobody's heard of that makes you have bad hand eye coordination and a bad sense of direction. Meaning I'm bad at sport and finding my way to places. I have a very mild form of this disorder though, and it's now barely noticeable.

 
I have Ehlers Danlos, Tourettes and Aspergers (All diagnosed not self xD)

Tama's are nice because I can't have babies. xD

 
I actually have several mental illnesses (won't make a list - it's long!) and I've pretty much recovered from anorexia. However, I won't let my life be defined by them and I am determined to do the best I can, even though they won't go away.

:wub:

 
Insomnia

I have been having really bad sleep for the past few weeks so I;m sure I have it. Like I go to bed at 9:30 and can't sleep until 1;30 sometimes :< and wake up early in a grumpy mode

 
I have insomnia as well...I read a lot of scary stories at once, so now...I usually read myself to sleep though.
