Hi I’ve been having seizures for about 5 years now.... and idk anything thing about what your wanting to do but I do know that when you drink and do drugs it can affect any meds your on if your on any so be careful and even though you only have the staring spells they can still get dangerous I have 2 Types of seizures and those are one of them and i walk during mine sometimes. I’m not going to tell you to do it or not to but If you do make sure in a safe place

hey beth, im 23 and did my share of drugs including ecstacy, lsd, dmt, cocaine, blah blah blah. it was a phase, i would like to say that never while doing those drugs did i have a seizure, however there was times when i was just watching everyone getting as high as they can and i ended up the one in the hospital bed. You just have to be confident and be comfortable, everything happens for a reason
I’ve been having auras as far

I’ve been having auras as far back as I can remember, to me just thought is was deja vu. wasn’t diagnosed with epilepsy until I was 22,I’m 30 now, after my 1st gran mal szr. Between me bein 18-20 I’ve done X on multiple occasions. It’s understandable Ur 16 wanna Experiment an be involved when ur friends doin it. I was 18 when I 1st tried it so I can understand this bein a lil hypocritical but I also didn’t know I had epilepsy.or was on meds. Ur 16 ur brain is still developing so regardless of epilepsy or not I’d say thts a lil young. Imagine u take meds so X might conflict with ur meds, ur not exactly sure what’s in the X, could be meth or something else nasty in it or how much MDMA is in it. If u just stare durin ur szr tht can be what u doin thizzin, also will get tht thiz face so u might look like u having a szr. U do what u want my friend but if u gonna do it start with half, make sure ur gonna be in a safe environment Imagine ur friends know u have epilepsy so just remind em what u do while u havin em. With any drug especially at 16, be safe an careful. I would suggest havin a bunch of water with u if u do take it, tht X makes u thirsty. Just remember there’s possible consequences of any drug regardless of having szrs or not an just be smart about takin any drug an how much
