  • Set a timer for hydration. You will forget towards the end of it. All the things your body does automatically will become less effective. Like obviously your fuse will be shorter. But you’ll feel more hungry with less warning, for instance. Satisfying that in a way that might normally make you a bit tired could be enough to make you crash out. But you need to keep eating or you’ll feel like starved hell. Keep it light/snackish. Also try to avoid extra stimulation. If you need stimulation to stay awake keep it minimal as you can.

    Additionally, recognize the point of damage. If you’re finding yourself taking completely unintentional ‘microsleeps’ (passing out for 15-120 seconds) that’s your brain screaming for mercy and you should take rest if it’s even remotely possible, and results get truly unpredictable past that point in regards to emotional/mental stability.

    Hope that helps, here to answer if you want clarification on anything there






  • No problem. Those depend on your locale, if you’re in the UK or Canada I’m unfamiliar with their systems and don’t want to hazard a guess. If you’re in the US though, I would speak with an attorney if you have the privilege of being able to pay for their time. They should tell you if/where to submit a complaint and any further steps from there. If you can’t afford an attorney, I would research the relevant federal laws on removal from parents insurance, they may help give you the answer of if Kaiser is legally required to continue covering you. If they’re not legally required to, and they won’t give any kind of confirmation even when pushed, I would prepare to not be covered and start looking at other options.

    Additionally, social workers should be able to help navigate this. If you’re in contact with a case manager/caseworker of some kind for your disability, I recommend asking them first if they have any resources or knowledge, before attorneys or anything.


  • Since I’m an american treading in here, I’ll speak from that experience. I searched Kaiser and only found the US-based HMO, so I’ll assume that’s what you’re referring to. My personal experience says that they’re balking because they have nothing to give. I’m under the impression that they have no obligation to cover you past the age of 25 and as such will drop you like a bad habit. To my knowledge, disability qualification doesn’t change that. I could be wrong but at the very least I think you should press them harder for proof.

    Call support and try to get to a person, tell them what you want, and go from there. That’s worked for me in similar scenarios and should either get you what you want, or make it demonstrably clear that they won’t give what you’re requesting.
