Now that I have showed you the myths lets put some facts behind them...
epilepsy isn't like the flu, aids, or the measles it is not a disease it is a disorder
epilepsy has to do with the brain ya but it is a phsyical illness not mental nor your IQ
we only look different when we fall to the floor and shake there is no neon sign round our neck
Yuo tounge cannot be swallowed it is physically impossible Don't try to hold it so it don't choke me cuz that is yucky..
peti-mal seizures don't involve convulsions and manytimes do go unnoticed
Please don't call an ambulence on us unless seriously needed.. Those people never listen to us cuz of course after a seizure
we ain't human no more or something..and they force us to go..
you cannot stop a seizure however you can injure us by holding us down so please don't we are sore enough already
NEVER restrain us please just let the seizure finish
other health problems can cause seizures and so can head trauma.. but I ain't gotta worry bout gettin it cuz I already
got it... :-P
there are craploads of reasons for seizures.. to know if your epileptic go through thier lamo tests like the famous eeg..
seizures increase the risk of accidents and unexplained deaths... Brain surgery is safer than having seizures....
all jobs have responcibility and stress if you eliminate the possiblity of us working at all how are we to live...
over 40 million pple have epilepsy so I really don't think it is rare..
seizures all have a patter so once one starts you can pretty much know the follow through onece you've seen one grandmal
u seen em all but petimal is diff than grandmal
Lemme see physically limited.... HELL NO!!!
treatment don't help us all and there is no cure so the problem ain't solved
