I want people to know that epilepsy does NOT define you. AT ALL. #epilepsyawareness #WritingCommunity
Tomorrow kicks off #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek to help bring global education, support, and awareness to family, friends, and coworkers regarding unseen illnesses, pain, and disabilities. -- What would you like people to know about #epilepsy? #EpilepsyAwareness
ALT The "Invisible reality of epilepsy" - Random falls, bed wetting (nocturnal seizures), blood on the pillow, sudden confusion and memory gaps, extreme fatigue and exhaustion, unexplained fear and panic.

Cognitive training for #epilepsy doesn't have to be intense. Reading, puzzles, traveling a new street, or listening to music can stimulate neural pathways without causing unnecessary fatigue or stress. -- How are you going to train on #TrainYourBrainDay? #EpilepsyAwareness

#Epilepsy affects an estimated 65 MILLION people worldwide, crossing every border, culture, and continent. Bridging the global treatment gap demands international cooperation, shared medical advances, and worldwide solidarity. #EpilepsyAwareness

As a new writer, it is so important to get involved with the writing community. I highly recommend joining workshops like the FLORIDA WRITING DAY WORKSHOP. I'm hooked 👍📚 #FLORIDAAWW #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amquerying

While a positive mindset can’t magically stop a seizure or cure a neurological condition like #epilepsy. -- How much do you think maintaining a positive attitude has helped your adaptation or treatment? #EpilepsyAwareness

Epilepsy doesn't mean you've lost your mind. Half of it wandered off, and the other half went looking for it. Stand firm. Your mind will too. #epilepsywriter #amwriting

Do you find that managing #epilepsy can be an emotional endurance test? Many find it's hard not to feel like we got the short end of the stick. Grieving lost independence, missed plans, and constant uncertainty is a completely valid part of the emotional journey. #EpilepsyAwareness
