Alternative ideas for an ACCer

This page is new, and it was built because of an idea I received from doing a lot of thinking.
 
This is personal advice that I want to give each fellow ACCer. Because I know we all get down about things sometimes so here's idea number one.
 
Struggle with migraines? My advice: Take up the hobby of collecting sunglasses. I have daily headaches and migraines and because of the advice of a friend to stay away from bright lights when they are bad I took up the hobby of collecting sunglasses. I love finding cute (affordable) pairs of sunglasses and they all get worn. It's just a fun thing for me so that I can think back and know that even though I am in pain I have fun with trying to help myself lessen the pain. Just by collecting sunglasses
 
Next: Cant drive? I know several ACCers that struggle with this. My big thing is that there is no freedom really if you cant drive and it takes away from independence because if you have to get around you have to depend on others. I hate that. BUT there is an answer to this problem! No it's not riding a bike, scooter, or skateboard or anything like that. And yes it's expensive (but less expensive than a car) My doctor said this is a great Idea for a ACCer and I will soon be getting one myself. But a SEGWAY it's basically a motorized scooter. And almost seems made for an ACCer haha.
 
As I come up with other ideas for positive alternatives for an ACCer to get along I'll post them here. thanks for reading!
