If you’ve ever watched a friend suffer through an epileptic seizure, you know the suffering secondhand. A beautiful way to help those who have to struggle firsthand this truly is... Hats off.
As someone who both has epilepsy and a sister with epilepsy... it's so nice to hear a positive association with it instead of the usual drama and horror.
I have epilepsy and I think it is offensive and ignorant. As for the “usual drama and horror”, really? Many people die during fits, it’s a disability and shouldn’t be seen as positive. What’s positive about being injured, being disabled and possibly dying? We shouldn’t downplay people’s suffering.
@@TheReelDealFilmReviews I mean people in the film and music industry who like to use seizures for shock factor. That is offensive. My disorder is not someone’s horror plot device. I’m sorry you feel the way you do about our condition. No there is nothing positive about having epilepsy, but there is absolutely no use in sitting around in a puddle of despair over something that can’t be changed. Am I upset that I have to live with this disorder? Yes. Am I going to let it control my life any more than it already does? Absolutely not. I’m not broken and neither are you.
@@LittleLotteWanders I disagree, fits for the purpose of shocks absolutely should be a mechanism to demonstrate how difficult epilepsy is to live with and to witness. If we are to make light of it, people who are not educated about it, will potentially think little of it. I doubt cancer would be likened to an aspirational state. It’s great that you are resilient but a third of those who suffer from epilepsy will have fits that cannot be controlled with drugs and it’s very normal to feel disheartened, depressed and anxious. It doesn’t help that people don’t speak about it either as they maybe embarrassed about it. When your body is not under your control it is terrifying and thousands die of epilepsy a year. SUDEP needs to be spoken about more often. I wish you and your Sister the best.
Such a special artist.

The same here, me only though. It's a good feeling some made such a beautiful art out of it, isn't it? 😉
