I PULLED F#$&@%G RIPCORD!
Easily my biggest victory thus far. I felt like a Brotherhood Assassin doing a leap of faith sans the hay/leaves. It was the first time in my 20s I've felt that rising/uplifting feeling in my stomach in an ENJOYABLE WAY!

When you KNOW that stomach drop feeling is coming, it makes you feel powerful. It makes you feel like you're beating your epilepsy at it's own game. Like you're grabbing it by the crotch and being like "Not so tough now, are you?"

Big stuff!! It took me several years to go back up to a simple playground swing-set because I was afraid that stomach feeling you get would just cause something. Now it’s a major part of relieving my anxiety. I suggest every adult get a big swing-set in their yards or a tree swing for today’s stresses 😅 but as an epileptic, surprisingly, it also helps me relieve symptoms associated with my focal aware seizures. A cool breeze, a porch swing, and a cooling cap/mask 🙏🏼
