I just came back after a long break. I have Dysautonomia from a TBI and it makes some aspects of the game difficult to play, but I will always love the game.
Anyone else suffer from this condition and or know a relevant community of people that play together that understand the daily struggles?
I sometimes forget to breathe, but I don’t think that qualify as Dysautonomia.
Actually dont know what those 2 conditions are
I have hypersomnia where I will periodically fall asleep throughout the day at random times, especially when I am relaxed and playing world of Warcraft. I’ll notice that I’ll fall asleep for a few moments while still pressing buttons.
Dysautonomia is basically a blanket term used to describe any condition that hinders the nervous system.
If you have damage to your neurological system, it causes things like heartrate, GI, inability to sweat, etc to all go wonky and makes you feel like crap. You can have blood pressure issues from it that cause you to collapse and it’s difficult sometimes to sit and play games because of it, much less life any normal life.
I have episodes of exhaustion after work where i nod off in the middle of the game. Sometimes i fly into a mountain. Sometimes im at the edge of the map. Sometimes im dead.
Can you drink caffeine without symptom flareups? For me it just makes my flares worse and keeps me tachy all day.
I drink coffee daily. I have to be careful when i drink coffee as i also get bouts of chronic insomnia.
I just get bad tachycardia and have to take more meds.
