What if others say they're afraid you'll have a seizure?

another thing i have learned from the seizures both myself and daughter get is we both have different triggers. hers are usually because of too much going on in the brain and getting overheated. hers didn't start till she had her two kids. mine was from a tumor and too many head traumas .with bringing family on board was tough, but every obstacle i improved on regardless if i considered it a win or not. it was to them. i knew i was being watched 24/7 but they learned with me that i would let them know the minuet i was not feeling right. mad a big difference after a while, only one condition, had to have my phone with me always. what set mine off was too much input to the brain at a time. made me think to hard, i taught them patience and it paid off for all of us. now i think of what i want to say before i say it, makes good practice for speaking to anyone.

thank you for the helpful.
thank you for all the mentions.
@randallshields56 Ps, just found out this month before it goes out the window that my temperature from the neck up plays a key role in my triggers for having seizure symptoms beginning. Twice now in different locations my daughter had to remove headgear and outer garments that held heat so i could cool down and both times she could see me coming around more quickly to normal. Ty
@randallshields56 Thank you for sharing your information regarding triggers. My seizures were started 20yrs ago when I was 45, after a TBI caused after a DV assault. I am not sure about triggers as my seizures jut happen with no warning. After you talking about too much input into the brain causing the trigger, that could be part of what happens to me too. I can go 2 months without a seizure, which usually happen around the same times of the month.

@randallshields56 It is very hard when seizures are started off by TBI's, tumours etc. It is hard to know what sets them off. There is a list a mile long of triggers. I know what you mean about too much in your head, or stress.
