r/Epilepsy is a subreddit with 81k members. The community frequently discusses epilepsy, seizures, seizure, medication, and anxiety, and they frequently recommend/review sleep aid, devices, and medication, and the most common flair used is question, rant, support, medication, and victory.
The mission of r/epilepsy is to provide a community forum for people who are affected by epilepsy. We exist to share ideas about the direction of epilepsy research, available treatment options for all seizure disorders, SUDEP, and to overcome the challenges and stigma created by epilepsy through lively discussion in a safe supportive environment.
