I'm also new here and I was Diagnosis on 3/6/06. I never had a problem when I was a kid. I started having seizure back in 2004 I was 32 yrs old. So I'm confused and depress by it all. I'm also very scared and worried.

I was diagnosed at a very young age. I will be 31 on Friday. I've had it rough in school. Classes seemed to be a bit hard for me as I also was diagnosed with LD (Learning Disability.) I was good at some classes but terrible at others. I to this day have a LOT of trouble with math issues. Driving a car was NEVER an option for me. I take Grand-Mal siezures and my whole body shakes. I live my life day by day, not knowing what to expect. It's a scary thing to live with.

I have lived with Epilepsy since i was 7. My doctor told me there was a chance I would outgrow Epilepsy once I hit puberty, well lets just say it didnt come true. Liz
