Wishing you a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Epilepsy Blog Relay—Alternative Treatment Options

This post is part of the Epilepsy Blog Relay™ which will run from November 1^st through November 30^th.

You could say I have evolved in my beliefs about alternative medicine and epilepsy. I used to be dead set against it. I thought it was too dangerous. Since it was unregulated, you didn’t know what effect the chemicals would have on your body and how they would interact with your other medications.

Epilepsy Awareness

It’s the middle of November and I have avoided writing for months. I often wondered why. I think there are many reasons. First, I am a perfectionist and want everything I do to have no mistakes in it. In turn, this takes a lot of work to make sure everything is in order. Even now, when I am writing, I can feel my internal censor at work. However, I know that editing yourself as you write is not the most efficient way of getting something done.
