Hi I am new to this website.I am trying make new friends and share my experience and stories on my epilespy.I have had epilespy since I was 2 yrs old.I thought I grew out of it when I was 14.But 6 to 7 years later I had 2 very big grandmal seizures and was told I can never be off my meds for the rest of my life.So I would like to meet others who have had episespy all there life too.Its to hard to explain to others that do not have it.

Have you gone to the chat room yet???Each persons seizures are different to others as their medications and types of seizures. I have had epilepsy for 50+ years now and will probably never be seizure free.
