I have a friend who just started having seizures last year unexpectedly. Neither me or his partner have any idea what is causing them. Being that they are after puberty the seizures don’t qualify as epilepsy and fall in the Seizure dysfunction category. I’ve tried to get him on this site but it’s been a no go. If anyone has any advice or ideas let me know.

I am 22 years old, I just graduated from college. I am young and I like to go out with my friends and family and drink with them. I know that a lot, probably the majority, of the people on this will respond telling me not to drink any alcohol because it is dangerous. However, at my age and my social life, it just doesn't seem reasonable that I can not get drunk and have fun with my friends and have fun in my 20's like everyone else can
Anyway, the day after drinking though is when I have the… read more
