One of the most common misconceptions about epilepsy is that it is a single disease. In fact, epilepsy actually includes a wide variety of conditions that have one thing in common: the brain malfunctions spontaneously, then returns to normal.

Epilepsy is not always characterized by violent, convulsive seizures like we see in movies or on TV. The condition can look different for everyone.
If we can build a better understanding of the different types of epilepsy and other seizure disorders, it becomes easier to manage and treat the condition.
