The kind of seizures I have

Absence seizures

Has medication helped me

Yes

Who has supported me through my epilepsy journey

My wife was my greatest supporter until my depression (partly a side effect of the medication) helped to end the marriage. I have also really appreciated the support of the Epilepsy Educator in my district, who has supported me through situations like appointments with WINZ. My (part-time) employer has been very supportive, allowing me to stay employed.
