It is not a mental illness.
It is not an illness that will make a person mentally disabled. Most people who have it are otherwise quite normal and healthy.
Epilepsy may make a person have blackouts
It may make them fall suddenly to the floor, get stiff, and shake all over.
It could make parts of their body jerk and shake, give them a sudden pain in their stomach or make them feel afraid or angry.
A seizure can make a person act as if they are half asleep. During these times, they may walk around, pick at their clothes or not make sense when talking. These changes in how a person feels and acts are called seizures.
While a seizure is going on, the person has no control over their actions. They may not remember anything about it at all once the seizure is over.
