I Have Epilepsy

This morning was a very frustrating one. Early morning, I was fine. We drove down to the pier to check on the visibility, took the cat into the new fishing shop that opened up last week, and got back into the truck and came up to the office. I was doing fine until about 8:30, when suddenly, I had a small seizure. This one affected me in that I continued to have triggers for the next hour or so, and I was hit with another seizure at 9:40. Shortly thereafter, I had another trigger and I felt like sh*t all morning.

At about 1:30, the affects started to disappear, so I know that I most likely won't have another, but still, I'm tired, I cant' work at my normal pace, as I'm tired and most of all frustrated. It's now just after two. Too late to start a pattern, too late to cut into an alteration, too late to do anything that needs concentration, as I don't trust myself to not do anything wrong. The last time I tried to make a pattern after two, I made the wrong one. The guy ordered a one piece full suit, the pattern I made was for a seal neck jacket and johns, which is the most popular wetsuit we make. I just automatically went into that mode. I just had to throw the whole pattern away.

So, here I am, unsure what to do with myself, afraid that if I start something now, it won't go good. Maybe I'll just sit here and work on my book. Frustrating. 😒

Know exactly how that feels. I don't have seizures like i used to, but I still have the falling into habit and spacing out effects.
