Good Morning. My name is Chad and I am a Student Physical Therapist Assistant in California. I am researching online resources for individuals with epilepsy and wanted to ask anyone reading this how this website has helped them and what, in your opinion is the best thing about this website? Thank you all so much for any information you are willing to share. Have a great day:)

I think this forum allows

I think this forum allows persons with epilepsy (as well as anyone who may suspect it) a safe environment to communicate about difficult issues we may feel uncomfortable sharing with doctors.  Epilepsy often produces symptoms that we patients may feel foolish sharing.  Also, in reading others' material I am assured that I am not the only one who experiences epilepsy's unusual effects.  I've tried using another epilepsy forum and found it to be rather confusing and even annoying.  This site is simpler and easier to use.
