epilepsy awareness

Epilepsy awareness involves understanding that epilepsy is a neurological condition characterized by recurrent seizures caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Seizures can vary in intensity and duration, affecting consciousness, movement, or sensations. Raising awareness helps reduce stigma, promotes early diagnosis, and encourages supportive responses during episodes. It also emphasizes the importance of medical management, medication adherence, and safety precautions. Understanding epilepsy fosters a more inclusive environment, enabling individuals to lead active, safe lives while ensuring communities are prepared to assist effectively during seizures.
