Stigma beliefs: loud and wrong.

There's a quote that fits all chronic illnesses and conditions, most definitely epilepsy. "you don't get it until you get it". Years of stereotypes and ignorant assumptions has painted a negative image of a person with epilepsy. Discrimination can easily trinkle from it. From a healthy person, rather than say a fellow warrior, some rejection could happen. Someone with epilepsy is not dangerous, but extreme grand mal seizures is the image embedded in many minds. That dominos into our lower self-esteem and social separation; that loneliness is where the purple lavender come in to play.
