Finding a Community

Being diagnosed with epilepsy can be upsetting and make you feel isolated and alone. You're not alone! Chances are there is a community of people in your area going through the same challenges that you are. There may be support groups. Ask your doctor or other health care professionals. Look for a local affiliate of the Epilepsy Foundation. Check with the nearest epilepsy center. Talk to other people with epilepsy. Go on the Internet. People can help you and you can help others, too!
