Pfft...doctors...What do they know anyway?

My neurologist wants to put me back on anti-epileptic meds.

Right now I'm flat out refusing. Is this childish? Probably, but is it worth refusing? Definitely.

First off, I don't even really have epilepsy. It's a seizure disorder that only affects my eyes. The chances of me every actually having a seizure are ridiculously small...only slightly higher than a normal person's.

Second, the pills totally mess with me. All I do is sleep. It's like I'm a freakin' zombie. No fun at all.

I'd much rather have a slightly increased risk of a seizure and feel normal and happy, than be completely drugged out.

That's all for now.
