How do you guys recover from a seizure ? is it rest? being productive ?

Well, last Saturday, I had a seizure. After 4-6 months of being episode free, I was celebrating just a little bit; I've been working to stay alive, having a balance, and even with wishful thinking, maybe and just maybe getting my license.

I don't think that will ever happen.

Well, we're back at the very beginning and even having an outing I'm begging to be a part of in July.

But, I was asked a question by a friend(s) who is very worried but still learning. I was asked, "When you get sick, how do you recover?." I always say just resting, but in this recent experience, that wasn't the case.

I'm asking my community: "How do you recover?."

  1. that sounds out right. Due to me being with both insomnia, it takes a lot for a good night's sleep, especially after the act of an episode. I'm even more exhausted just by simply taking a nap how that's possible only us within the community can point it out.

    1. I can only imagine how hard it must be to try to recover from a seizure when you also have insomnia happening. 😞 I admire your strength, Mandi!! 💜

  2. Lots of sleep & rest...I usually feel really exhausted & fatigued for at least a week after one & no motivation also I usually get migraines too
