Readers of this forum challenged with epilepsy would do well to attend a screening of the new movie 'Control' by Anton Corbijn.

''Control' chronicles the rise of Joy Division and the tragic demise of the lead singer, Ian Curtis.

Ian would have seizures on stage during performances and his frustration and the contempt of the other band members is palpable. There is a scene where Ian is given prescription medication by a doctor who is unable to explain the function of the pills.
