My best friend has a seizure disorder that was caused by an auto accident head injury three decades ago. When he can smoke on a daily basis he doesn't have seizures or only very mild ones. When he can't smoke the seizures are much more frequent and severe; they're debilitating.

To get this positive effect he doesn't need to be stoned all the time. A few tokes once a day does the trick.

Default Epilepsy and TetraHyrdoCanibinol

I have epilepsy and I have had it since I was 15, my life was controlled by the fear that I might have a seizure in a very bad location. My neurologist prescribed a drug that was later taken off the market by the FDA because it caused extreme depression and suicidal tendecies. I have experianced many episodes of depression and I have tried to kill myself 8 times so far. My doctors tried antidepressants with no success. Finally I started to do some reasearch and found that marijuana can stiple the side effects of anticonvulsants and can even prevent seizures. So I started smoking and I havent expreianced a single sizure as long as I kept up my smoking, b/c marijuana can also cause seizures when u just up and stop smoking.
But the weirdest thing is that whenever I have a seizure and later smoke, my high is really diffrent.

You mean this specifically for you, or even possibly more generally the epileptic, correct? I have never seen any reports of seizures as result of cession of marijuana, or even THC, use in healthy adults.
