As @jakedduck1 has well shared seizures can change in type, frequency, and severity throughout life. I have had auras and focal impaired awareness seizures since I was a teenager, but they did not affect me much. I was absent for a few seconds and "came back" as if nothing had happened. I went to university, did my master's, worked, and had a normal life. But this started to change in my forties, seizures became stronger and more frequent. Focal impaired awareness seizures became more frequent and I took a while to "come back", until my epilepsy had clearly shown its face.
Regarding watches, I have read that are today watches that can detect tonic-clonic seizures. I do not use them, as my seizures are mostly focal ones and not detected by those watches. Perhaps others here in our group can share their experiences with you? What I have been considering is to have a seizure dog one of these days when I move into a house. I have read that a well-trained seizure dog, can sense and alert a seizure coming before it happens. However, I use a smartwatch that measures my sleep, stress levels, etc, helping me to manage better my seizure triggers. As @jakedduck1, I also use an ID bracelet, it gives me a feeling of some security.
