Hey Exodus, I too have epilepsy since I was 14 (am 28 now) and have found weed has helped a lot. Mostly I have grand mals in my sleep, but have done them awake as well. I've even had as many as 10-12 within an hour causing me to stop breathing. The meds I take do stop the grand mals, but the petite mals don't stop. I piss a lot of people off jerking my legs constantly, I don't even notice it. Those are seizures the weed stops. It also helps with a bad attitude, I get mad very easily, can't sleep some nights and get depressed some days. When it comes to talking to a doctor about it, I say just go for it. I've been through a few here (Sudbury, Ontario) and found none that will sign for it. I tell them what's going on and how the weed helps. That's all you can do really. I've even gotten so frustrated at a doctor and told them fine, I'll just keep doing it illegally. Also let them know you have been doing it for such amount of time, it's basically been tested already. All you can do after that is hope for the right answer.
