What can be safe with Epilepsy?

Most people with epilepsy live very normal lives. Depending on the form of epilepsy, and the severity and regularity of seizures, different things can or can't be done. Driving may be a risk for some. Strobe lighting may be risk for people with photosensitive epilepsy, but not everyone has that form. Swimming could be a risk. To know what is safe you need to know about the nature of a particular individual's epilepsy.


How can a person with epilepsy learn how to drive?

As a seizure can happen at any time, someone who is driving at the time is obviously a potential risk. Different countries have different laws relating to driving and epilepsy. Someone who has any history of epilepsy is often barred for life from driving something like a bus and there is no way they could ever get a pilot license. For a car, it is often a case that they have to be clear of seizures for a period of time, like a year or two, before they will be allowed to get a driving license. A truck being a larger vehicle, poses a larger potential risk on a road, so the law would be stricter, but that depends on where someone is. It differs from one place to another. You would need to check with the laws where you are.
