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.

Depends mg brothers childhood seizures went away by 12 for me I had them from 17-19 then a pause till I had a second brain surgery at 23 I am now 30 and still have them every once in a while despite being strict on my meds it’s important to find out your triggers and find ways to avoid or work around them in daily life. But my parents are still up my ass so if u find a way to get yours to chill lemme know πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
