What do I do if my gf has a seizure?

Question

She has epilepsy and honestly it's a bit awkward asking about stuff like this and I can't say i've had experience in people with epilepsy. If it was just us two and she were to have a seizure what am I supposed to do?

Ask her.

Admit your lack of knowledge.

Tell her you care for her safety.

Ask how she would like you to act if she has a seizure.

She will appreciate you being open and not freaking out.

Answer 2

You really do nothing other than make sure she is safe, on the ground, on her side. I agree, ask her. It’s silly to not talk about that elephant in the room.

Answer 3

You HAVE to ask her that question.  Each patient is unique.
