Hi there. My 14 year old son just started having seizures. My question is about independence. If you're out somewhere and start to feel the warning signs of a seizure come on, what do you do? If you can't find a safe place? If you're alone? Do you recognize warning signs enough that you can lay down? I'm sorry I'm all very new to this and thoughts of him being alone or getting hurt plague me continually. Thank you

Thank you for responding. It's comforting to know that other people understand

Thank you. I'm having real struggles dealing with this. He is fairly casual about it but I'm totally broken up over it. I hope I'm just overreacting because it's so new

Thank you so much. I'm doing everything I can to maintain normalcy for him. I keep my tears and anxieties to myself but comfort him anytime he feels he needs it or is unsure of things. Seriously, thank you for this response and for OP's timely post. This is all a great comfort to me

Thank you. Does the relaxation and deep breathing help ward off a possible seizure?
