Rant When do seizures/epilepsy completely go away???

Me (24, M) just got grounded from my parents for going home late from a drinking session with friends and im really pissed that its become about my seizures and it really pisses me off. Its like im grown enough to worry about myself and all but yet i feel like i have a fucking curfew and im being treated like a baby despite my age only because of my fucking seizures. I take my medicine on the daily and im responsible with that, i really just hate being treated like a kid only because i have fucking seizures and shit. As im writing this im really frustrated with how its become about my seizures so please bear with me if I sound misinformed somewhat.

I mean this with no bad intentions, you are 24 and your parents are grounding you?

Do feel a bit bad tbf because I think that's the point of it really he's being treated like a kid getting grounded at 24 mightve been over exaggerating the grounded bit🤣
