Research project

[CallMeSam]

I'm not sure if this is the right place, but it seemed the best of the options.
For my english class I am supposed to do a research paper on something that matters to me or affects my life, I chose to do mine on epilepsy treatments through out time. I'm trying to find websites and articles, but it's kinda slow going.
Can anyone on here help me with what they know of past treatmets for Epilepsy?

You can start here, there's a fair amount of foundational information which you can work from:

EDIT: some current doctors could use a re-familarization with Hippocrates... oath and research-wise. My favourite epilepsy remedy is exorcism *snortle* I see why they called it the dark ages.
