Epilepsy, alcohol, and weed: what's the deal?
in Health ·
I’ve dealt with epilepsy since I was 12, though I only had one seizure my whole life. I was on meds for a few years, but now I’m almost 18 and totally off them—everything's finally stabilized. But man, I was such a stubborn kid... whenever I heard "no" for an answer, I'd just go out and get wasted, and honestly? Absolutely NOTHING happened to me. 🙂 I know I probably should've been worried about what would show up on an EEG, but they kept telling me things were looking better. 🤷 I’ve actually never tried marijuana because, I don't know, I was just too scared after hearing all those horror stories. Though, deep down, I feel like I'd be fine if I ever did give it a shot.
