Re: a few complaints about the blind comunity
Hmmm.
I never had issue with family jean.
No the biggest issue is with the religious people.
I understand and respect your religion which is why I let you do things to me prey for me etc.
However that is as far as I will go I will not join your organisation.
Sadly I wouldn't say I am against all religion I was born a christian though I don't practice all of it really.
My point is that once disabled you become a religion magnit.
Now thats good if say its a community group or something that helps a charity etc or non proffit.
Sadly its all those people that god or fate or whatever seems to want to have pop up in the middle of your life and just seem to pick the most inconvenient time to show.
I have never had an experience with religion where it pops up in an appropriate way its all random.
Unless you initiate the contact first.
As for family Noise and the overload of noise is one of the biggest issues for me.
Ie
you will never catch me at to many concerts or nightclubs its to noisy for me to hear so I switch off.
Next any fluro light or bright lightsource is to put me into a semi seasure of sorts.
And believe me my alergies which cause all these can pop up and become violent just when I don't have my supplies in hand.
I remember things starting gradually and thinking I'd be all ok then I am at some concert and suddenly my head is nodding, my eyes are closing and I am shaking rattling and roling.
I try to open them and its like rubbing two bones together.
Ofcause I know what has happened but I can't do anything about it and then once my head is aking thats about it.
And while I can take my sprayers to clear nose and such a few of them can not be used to much else they will damage my nose and make it hurt.
My drops need to keep cold and I can't just pop em in without a drop unit and a flat surface, having good glasses helps and I have had
to at times put glasses on inside especially if I am under a light or something.
So far its not happened where I am at gym or cutting a cake though I can usually clear most of things with pills if I need to.
Sometimes if things don't clear thats usually me for the rest of the day.
Even at those parties where I enjoy things even when they are quiet and even when I have enjoyed the loud music they end to fast.
Ie new years a few times I am celebrating into the small hours of the morning.
Lately though we finnish before that and I am in a foul mood for the reason that at midnight I am in bed.
In bed, when everyone is out.
Though I guess its not that bad.
I know one guy that celebrates his parties with getting plastered.
At a party I tested the waters and tried to get plastered on cider.
2 bottles got me a headake and 1 small bottle of ginger beer with booze in it was enough to plaster me so I know I can't get plastered
which is a good thing I guess.
Drugs and such have never interested me.
However the sort of party I will enter into will be at a quiet bar witth friends.
Ofcause it may just be what I am doing right now.
I listen to podcasts for example where some people blind with others maybe 1 or 2 on purpose get themselves lost completely and rely on their gps on smartphones and get interesting results.
I am not that outgoing but then after all I was born in the poor helpless blind generation before you pulled your iphone.
I havn't as yet got round to using a touch device and with everything touch and with apps bar the fact accessability for me is well something I havn't really poked yet or needed to then I just havn't gone that way.
I suspect the next update going foreward though it will be an app centric device, phones started it and now our pcs will follow the same format.
And its not like just about every blinky in the world is covering
their helplessness with a machine and several apps and really digging it.
I havn't made it that far yet but I will.
There is a lot more access out there especially with the humble tablet than there ever was with the standard computer.
