Hey Im rezy

Living with epilepsy is like having a tattoo that we have to embrace. Always be positive because anxiety and negative thoughts can worsen seizures. Lets start looking at epilepsy in a positive way. Love you all

That is the spirit - I love that you are feeling this way. We all need to help others realise that this is how we are and to move ahead with an open mind. Dwelling on the negatives only festers more problems and can increase subconscious stress - which reduces the threshold and increases the susceptibility to seizures.

Have an awesome day.

We need to be positive and encourage people who are struggling to accept that they have epilepsy.
