What has been your most embarrassing epilepsy moment?
Awkward moments can be hard to open up about, but sharing can help us see we are not alone in these experiences.
My most embarrassing moment was being at a friend party and had a seizure once I become aware had a few people just looking at me and my friend taking me to the bathroom because I wet myself. I hate these so much 😒
oh no... they are horrible and very hard to describe. My aura comes and few seconds later I'm out not enough time to warn anyone. They can be very embarrassing but I can't help doing what I do but oh well it is what it is 😊 hope all is well with you and you are doing good 🙏 
I have done the same thing and have learned who my true friends are
My most embarrassing moment was having a seizure on a first date. I ended up in ER with a black eye and a swollen nose. It was quite embarrassing. I pretty much pay attention to my body from this point on.

Epilepsy Team Memberprobably not the most embarrassing, but one that stands out
having a seizure in gym class while attempting to climb down from a set of exercise bars
in front of two teachers, 7 kids and an inspector
it didn't just end there, either.

because of the severity of the seizure, for the next three days I couldn't actually move my neck. I had to get random people in to massage it.
Fallen off the couch with black eyes, all bruised up.
Do others ever assume you are getting bruised from abuse or other ways? It must be so hard to have such visual repercussions. Warmly, Corene (team member)
