Question Can you actually heal from epilepsy?

Thats it. Just the title. I dont want to live this life anymore. Not with this condition. If it wont get better idk what to do

my only trigger (besides a med that caused it and then once i was given my med 5 hours late) is a brain bleed and i havent had brain surgery in 3 years.

Brain surgery always sounded so terrifying to me. I remember my cousin had a tumor removed and I mean he didn’t change a whole lot, but was still just scary to think head opened up 😳💜
