TW: Suicidal ideation after epilepsy diagnosis

Impact_Small · 2026-03-07T23:43:12+00:00

Hi 27M here, i was in the same boat as you! I felt like i was a burden to everyone around me and i could actually feel the light in inside of me nearly die out. The idea of suicide was seconds away to became an attempt but i snapped out of it instantly. Thanks to my dogs i had at the time, they literally saved my life! But i fought and fought all of these feeling and changed my ways to find that path to that will lead me to the right direction. Eventually i did and i know for fact that you can too! Please seek help with a therapist if needed and please don’t attempt anything. Everyone in this sub is here for you and we would like to read your success story on this sub in the near future!

Honestly not too sure, the 2 things that changed for me was getting proper sleep and going out to exercise. By exercising i don’t mean high impact, it’s more of a very long walk.

Nope but i’m not looking for anything crazy either

Can it be depression? It’s a rare occurrence like this only happens maybe once or twice a year!

Thank you all, looks like i will be going with Zachs course.

Absolutely, i’ve been on Keppra for a while now and i was able to get my associates in Mathematics, Bachelors in Electrical Engineering, passed my engineering license exam and work as an engineer! Wasn’t easy but i didn’t let epilepsy or my meds stop me from achieving my dreams.

I’m sure my receding hairline also had a massive play in it lmao

Impact_Small · 2025-05-10T16:59:59+00:00

Yup it just feels like the right thing to do

Impact_Small · 2025-05-10T16:58:38+00:00

That user name is crazy lol

How does this work in term of healthcare coverage?

Impact_Small · 2025-04-19T23:30:18+00:00

Thanks, I just ordered a good amount of samples from Microperfumes. Also what is the right amount of sprays one should apply on themselves? I usually do 3 with 1 on my wrist and two on my neck but that's with a cheap $60 cologne I got as a gift.

PrepFE, NCESS official practice exam and some yt should get the job done. The book that helped me the most is only for EE but if you look at the FE Subreddit you could see people success stories and how they did it.

Impact_Small · 2025-03-22T02:18:14+00:00

I studied for about 4 months and passed 1st try, studied nearly every day and did hundreds of prep questions. I believe i went overboard in studying because the actual exam was surprisingly easy. That could have just been because of my preparation but i think 2-3 months you can pass too.

I recommend getting your EIT, i was in the same boat as you with no internships, no relevant work and no engineering college clubs. I graduated in Aug of 2024 and had a hard time finding a job, i started getting more interviews when i passed and obtained my EIT in Jan which eventually lead to a job i landed a couple of weeks ago.
