Epilepsy
is a chronic disorder which is characterized by recurrent, unprovoked seizures,
often with no known cause. The word
unprovoked is important here because someone can have one seizure due to
alcohol, sudden head trauma, lack of sleep, or extreme stress. That individual seizure is not counted as
epilepsy.
