My Life Experience - Having Seizures

 

            Who would've thought a sixteen year old girl already suffering from a disease? Many teenagers at that age are barely discovering life, while she, on the other side, was living a difficulty. Unfortunately, I was that girl; I had brain seizures (epilepsy). The seizure disorder, epilepsy, is a medical condition that produces seizures affecting a variety of mental and physical functions. Because of epilepsy, I am no longer able to represent who I was. .
             Being accompanied by seizures made my life crazy, day by day they increased, surrounding me more than usual. At that moment I was tired of everything that I no longer care of what occurred. My life seemed useless. I never had the chance to know the time, nor place; they just attack. From seconds to minutes I am unknown, without a single clue of my actions. Thanks to my surroundings is that I am notified of my conditions, or what I go through. For me, is like never actually living that moment. No vision or sound is present. In order for me to comprehend what I went through, people have to explain what they see. Because of this, driving is not part of my routine any more, unless I last a six month seizure free duration. It does not only risk my life, but also others who are out there on the road. A seizure can hit unexpectedly. Even when I am on my best condition, it strikes. When it ends, I result lost trying to investigate from what place I left off. .
             With seizures as part of my life, not only did I became a drug (medicine) addict, but also my habits changed; which meant my body was prohibited from having chocolate, caffeine, and alcohol. The neurologist provided medicine for me to prevent the seizures, but in order for it to function I needed to keep those things away from me. The decision was mine, either I stopped obtaining them, or I stood the pain. At first it was difficult, the anxiety beat me. Alone I could handle it, but when the weekends arrived, things changed.
