Even doing these things doesn't 100% guarantee that a person won't have a seizure as sometimes it is difficult to avoid things that may cause their seizures, like stress. There are so many causes and triggers for epilepsy and each person is different, so what works for one person may not work for another person or may even be totally irrelevant to another person as their seizures are caused by something else.
