Can I stop my seizures?

No one can magically make seizures stop by wishing. You can't control the electrical signals in your brain just by trying. But many kids who have epilepsy will not have more seizures if they take the right kind of medicine. These seizure medicines stop the seizures from happening. If your medicine doesn't stop all your seizures, it will probably help you not to have so many, or to have smaller ones.
