Hi my name is Chris I'm from West Virginia  and I'm 22. I always wanted to join a site that let's me speak to other people that go what go through. I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 5 years old went through many problem and treatment and medications. All the different types of seizures. My epilesy effects boths sides of my brain. All this growing up really put a toll on me and as growing up to be a young man I wanted to do things I wasn't able to do like join the military and be a cop. They told me I couldn't do them. I was delt a wrong hand in life but the way I look at it , it was a way of god telling me there's something better for me out there to achieve in my life . Anyways id like to talk to people that have this and hear there story's and share mine. Thanks for reading.
