It is normal for people to celebrate and express their heartfelt feelings to each other. For people living with Epilepsy, being in a relationship or dating may not be an all smooth road. Dating may be a normal part of life – but anyone will tell you that it’s far from easy.
One they people often worry about is how soon they should tell their date that they have epilepsy.
It’s definitely a good idea to tell anyone you’re dating regularly about your epilepsy, just the same as you’d tell them anything else important about yourself.
However, it’s also a good idea to wait until you feel comfortable with the other person before bringing up a topic as personal as epilepsy. Being able to ask questions and share feelings on any topic, including epilepsy, will only make a relationship stronger.
