I keep it quiet and I don't want people to know. I've tried hiding but can't because I have seizures periodically.
Everyone from school to work has treated me with respect when I’ve had a seizure so I’ve never even kept it a secret that I have seizures.
Hello Everyone,
I would like to know if any of you use marijuana instead of medication. Do you feel stoned and unable to do your daily things? I was diagnosed with epilepsy November 2022. I have tried 5 different medications and now the Dr wants me to try another. I can not stand the way they make me feel!
Thank You,
Deana
I have energy before I take my meds in morning but shortly after I do I end up sleeping no matter what

I have days where I have to really fight to stay awake. It's next to impossible to keep my eyes open.
I've been tested for a lot of things; but so far no answers.
Yesterday I underwent a Doppler ultrasound of my carotid arteries. (I'll have to wait several days for the results.)
Has anyone else experienced such sleepiness?
Sometimes I sleep well at night. Other times ( like last night)
I don’t sleep at all. It varies.
I’ve had these my whole life and they make me space out and cause me to faint a lot !

It’s almost like you are blocked from reality v.s what is happening in the world around you because of stress!
Negative thoughts can lead to negative outcomes. Stay positive!! Stress can cause seizures. When feeling down pick up the Bible. Remember that God will never give you more than you can handle. ❤️&🙏
