Although #epilepsy IS NOT a mental illness. Mental illness is still important to the community because ~30% of people who have #epilepsy also have a mood disorder (like #depression or #anxiety). -- Do you struggle with your mental health? #epilepsyAwareness

Many people with #epilepsy have a steady feeling of unease, never fully trusting their own body because a seizure could happen at any moment. #epilepsyAwareness

Seizures can be scary to witness, but staying calm and knowing what to do can make all the difference. Being prepared means you can help keep someone safe, supported, and cared for until the seizure passes. Please share this post. #FirstAid #seizures #epilepsy

Speaking openly about living with an invisible illness like #epilepsy isn't being a hypochondriac. Your experiences are valid and deserve to be heard. It's advocacy, education, and seeking understanding for a very real condition. #epilepsyAwareness

An ambulatory EEG has nothing to do with ambulances, but monitoring brain activity on the go. An ambulatory #EEG uses a portable device to record brain waves over 24-72 hours as one goes about their normal daily life. -- Have you had an ambulatory EEG? #EpilepsyAwareness

💜Great start to the exhibition, spoken to lots of parliamentarians, caught up with our amazing host Bambos Charalambous MP, and for those who don't know about the condition, we've explained that there is more to epilepsy than just seizures. 💜 #NationalEpilepsyWeek

@BrainAblaze 1. Because the only people who know what it’s like to live with a chronic illness are those who actually have it 2. The ones who do have a chronic illness are scared to talk about it a lot of the time because society isn’t very aware. If you talk about something, a lot of people…

One's experience managing #epilepsy is valid, but it's not universal. ~30% of people with Epilepsy cannot manage their seizures through meds alone. Dismissing someone else's struggles minimizes their reality. We need empathy, not comparisons. #epilepsyAwareness

When you compare seizure activity in the brain of partial and generalized #seizures, the amount of brain being impacted is a lot larger for generalized seizures. #epilepsyawareness #epilepsy #seizuressuck #epilepsysucks #epilepsystrong #epileptic #epilepsia #seizureawareness
