Hi everyone, I am new to this site. I have Grand Mal seizures that are not that often. My last one was 3 years ago on New Year's Day. I would like to have penpals who also have siezures and know what I am going through. Btw-I am married so I just want friends. Thanks, Melanie

Hi everyone...I'm new here. I have had seizures (mostly grand mal)since 1995. I have seizures because in 1994, I was in an auto accident and sustained a massive head injury. I was looking for some sort of "seizure support forum", and I hope that I've found it here. Sometimes I just feel like I'm the only one. I hate feeling this way.

I just found this site myself and its a relief to chat to people who know what I am talking about. My family is supportive of my condition (now we finally know what it is) but explaining how weird I feel sometimes can be frustrating.
