Isn't so much how other people treat US with epilepsy...as for how we allow it to take over our lives....or to use it to reach out to others-with no shame or embarrassment. I have never had rejection in my life...as for I have always been very open about it...but when we are closed...and then others find out the tought way-by witnessing a seizure...they don't know how to handle it-don't have the "pre-comfort" and turn away-or word things wrong. We have to open up with no shame.
