New to this
 
:hug: I am 39 years old and I have been having seizures since I was 13 years old. I have been havng a lot of trouble the last couple of years. I have slowly been getting worse and I do not know why. My seizures have been getting worse. I have been having headaches that can last up to a week and the dizziness has gotten so bad that I have had to put a chair in the shower or have someone to help me. I can't even stand up sometimes. I have two boys, 8 and 6 and it is not good to be this way. I have gone through losing weight so much that I look like a crack addict and the depression is so bad that I just want to be left alone. Is it just me or do others go through this? I have started the process for disability because I can not keep a job. I have also started the process of getting me one of the seizure response dogs because I have hurt myself a lot recently. Can anyone help me with some info?

Hi Tracy,
 
Chemar has gotten you to a good area and I would also check out the depression forum. A lot of us deal with depression with what we go through.

I am happy you found the group and there will be so many answers to your questions and a lot of support on the forums.
