Hello All! I Don't Mean To Be Morbid, But Need To Ask. How Do You Stop Being Scared You're Going To Have A Life Ending Seizure?

It does scare me, but it isn't a crippling fear. As time passed, I became accustomed to the fact that I have no control over it. After all, the fear of it isn't doing me any favors.

So that being said, I wouldn't suggest doing that either, just hang in there and try and stay pos, my opinion to you.
I have had Seizures since I was 6 years old I'm now 41 for all the times I have been Hospitalized I'm still here upright an Independent not in the Hospital not in a Wheelchair
