I know some of the these triggers can be tricky and some may even go unnoticed, but for anyone who's had weather be triggering, please explain.

Never took a rescue med because once I know a seizures are coming, it's too late. Usually I'm alone if someone notices or walks into the area that I'm in their usually not thinking get the meds. Just wanted to know from the people prescribed with rescue meds, does your rescue med seem like it helps with the recuperation time?

I was talking to another epileptic and he told me that it caused him to developed agoraphobia, since the thought of leaving home terrifies him to the point where he will have extremely bad anxiety attacks. I’ve gotten a lot more cautious but no specific phobias, at least no phobias that I’ve noticed.

So, I didn’t get covid nor did I get vaccinated, but I did have an uptick in seizures during the early stages of the pandemic. To my question, did getting Covid cause more seizures for you? To the unvaccinated, have you ever gotten COVID, and if so did it cause more seizures while having it?

Would a seizure be considered a side effect of epilepsy, or would epilepsy be the side effect of having seizures? For example, do I have epilepsy because I have seizures or do I have seizures because I have epilepsy?

I’ve wandered during some type of (unaware or absence) seizure into other rooms, other’s homes, other counties, and to different floors (without shoes.) Looking back, I can now laugh and talk about the stories in detail (from what I remember, could be a false memory because no one was there, including me.) Anyone can give their opinions, but to the wanderers do you have any stories of your wandering experiences?

My memory is bad, but with family understanding that and from the things that I do remember, I feel like people are sometimes taking advantage of my bad memory. Being told “you owe me money from 2024, you said you’d gimme gas money when I took you home, but never sent/gave it to me.” I found the payment in my debit card history, that was after I’ve paid and he’d left. My question is do you call and ask for your money back or let it and take the loss? Mom says “call him back” I say “it’s a waste of time, he’s exits away by now or spent the money on drugs (that’s a whole different story) I’m ok with taking the loss, mom isn’t ok.

What do you miss about driving? Remember the freedom that came with driving alone? I mainly miss the freedom. Have you drove with epilepsy, and if so do you still have a license?

Bottles of older pills get thrown away (usually) but I found some that says they're 2 months past the expiration date. My question is, should I trash the pills or do I take those ahead of the newer pills? I seen a bin at the nearby cvs that says recycle pills here, should I take them there? Isn't the expiration date just a year after giving me the pills, what makes them expire/bad?
