Hello everyone.
Obviously I'm new here and I thought I'd better say 'hello' rather than just jumping into topics willy-nilly.
I'm twenty-nine and first had what my doctor called 'nervous episodes' when I was eight. Adolescence consisted of intensified and increased frequency of seizures, for which I used a variety of drugs, some legal - many more not so.
Things peaked in my mid-twenties when I was using whatever came to hand to control my wonky brain and had to go into a rehabilitation centre, where I finally got some decent neurological assessment, alongside all the other stuff.
Now I'm at the stage where I can hold down a job (just) and am clean, sober and trying out whatever the doctor gives me in an effort to stay seizure-free.
So yeah, that's me. Hope to talk to some of you soon.
