@kobebeef2026
there is always prejudice when it comes to disability's but proving it is another job in itself. i like the best policy part , but when they find out they can let you go for that. ill send a prayer out for you--------------sent.
Have a blessed day.

@kobebeef2026 Agree 100%, depending on how frequent your seizures occur. I'm retired and refrain from joining any social groups who meet at a formal location. Happens over and over and over. People get to like you and you have a seizure, and most will not be associated again. So, no matter whether we tell someone or not, chances are the outcome will be the same. Most will shy away. That's my experience.

@kobebeef2026 I agree with not telling your employer!
