Do, however, call an ambulance if the seizure lasts more than 5 minutes or is followed immediately by another seizure, if this is the person's first seizure, the person is injured or if the person is pregnant. Epilepsy is related to mental illness. It is not a disturbance of personality or intelligence. People with epilepsy cannot hold good jobs. They have the same range of intelligence and ability as the general population and work at all levels of business, government, art and the professions.
Epilepsy is nothing to worry about.
People who experience seizures should see a physician.
