living with epilepsy   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #223 of 894 |
Hello to all, this is my first time on a message board but I am
deperatly seeking others living with epilepsy. I have a great support
system in my family but know one understands because they have never
had seizures. I have had epilepsy for 10 years and haven't had that
many but I have had two in the last year, my last one being January
15th. These things scare the crap out of me and I panic alot after I
have one. I just need some other people who know what I'm talking
about to talk to.
