Epilepsy comes in a wide range of types , causes and severity. Some people can live very normal lives and could participate in any activities. Most people with epilepsy are physically fit and capable of doing any normal sports. Others would have more of a problem in doing some things. There are some things people could do, but again depending on their type and severity of epilepsy, they may need some supervision. Swimming could be an example in some cases. It is only when someone is having a seizure that there is any problem in them taking part in activities. For the vast majority of the time, a person with epilepsy is no different than anyone else. If there is a risky activity or potentially life threatening then much more care would be needed. Someone with a history of epilepsy would not be allowed to fly an aircraft for example. Some forms of climbing could be risky too, but it wouldn't necessarily stop everyone with epilepsy doing it.

In terms of someone who has epilepsy preventing their seizures, then taking medication and avoiding things that can trigger their particular seizures will help prevent them having their seizures. 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. For example it is commonly believed that flashing lights cause seizures. That is only for about 3% to 5% of people who have epilepsy. So for most people with epilepsy it is not necessary to keep away from flashing lights, as it has no affect on them.
