Dealing with Epilepsy without Medication

Is there anyone that deals with epilepsy without medication? I’m looking for an alternative way to take care of this. I don’t know what’s causing them. They just started last year. Anyone similar?

There’s a lot of stories I hear about CBD oil working for some people. Give it a try!

When I first had epilepsy at age 14, I kept having grandma seizures rapidly. Had to have an MRI immediately along with injections of something. Idk what they did when I was 14 because I was a teen and was passed out most of that time. Right now though. In January, I just had brain surgery and they said will have a very high chance of curing me. For I had a damaged brain. That's possibly what caused mine. (However I was also told at the last minute for dramatic effect by my mother that she had a seizure as a kid. Only 1 in her life though.) But just recently I was given Epidiolex as a prescription and so far it's stopped my usual scheduled seizures. Back when I was in the Volunteer Fire Department and I panicked when I lost my first patient, I started smoking Marijuana with my partner in the VFD. That actually prevented my seizures for 3 months until I stopped smoking it. (My state hasn't made it legal yet though. Medical or for casual.)
