I have epilepsy[not seroius] and im 13?

do u think that it would do any terrrible dammage if i drank ONE beer i know i can gwet hooked and **** im awear of it but do u think i can be fucked if i do drink

many people here are saying do not drink at all and thats its totally unhealthy for you. THATS NOT TRUE. studys have proven that alchohol is actually a good hting for the brain. it essentially does the same thing that protein or fat does for the body. accessive drinking, however, is not a very good thing.

if you are truley epileptic (which im assuming ur not hence the "[not serious]") then you should not drink. remeber to always drink responsibly. i can tell you right now that straight beer will NOT taste good. however, id suggest starting with somethign like a wine cooler. it has alchohol if you need it (and if u must have it), but it doesnt have too much. if you drink too much at one time, then your liver could fail...not a plesant thing.

ALSO, kids that start drinking in highschool (which you are probably in 8th grade) are over 70% more likeley to become alchoholics. so keep in mind that what you do now, can seriously affect what happens later. im 13 right now too believe it or not and i get what can make u wanna drink. just make sure u drink responsibly, and with friends that u trust. so if something DOES happen, then someone will ebt here to call 911

you should not drink when you are that young. It has nothing to do with your epilepsy. The thing about drinking is that it causes your red blood cells to clump together and they can't transport oxygen to the brain very well and while you are young, your brain needs it's supply of oxygen to keep it developing properly. Alcohol can affect your medication you are on though so you should not drink unless your doctor or pharmacist gives the okay. The hops in beer can impact your serotonin and dopamine levels and this could be bad if your medication also influences those neurotransmitters

well my friend's brother has epilepsy and he cannot drink ANYTHING with any kind of alcohol in it, or else he has major reactions from his medicine and the disease.
my suggestion is to talk to your doctor about it (your mom might start yelling at you for even thinking about it) and see what he says, and ask him to not tell your mother if you don't want her to know, because technically he's not allowed to tell anyone if you ask him not to.
i hope this helps

I have epilepsy as well. I would talk to your doctor about it. I know that I am allowed to occasionally have a drink. But I am also a lot older than you. I would not recommend drinking at your age, not because of the epilepsy, but because you are so young and there is no need for it.

The legal drinking age is 21 and you're 13. What do you think you should do?
Just as a side note, people don't turn into alcoholics by drinking one beer. You need to stick to what 13 year olds should be doing and get some education before you attempt things that only adults should be doing.
Your screen name is a shame.

**** yeah, that it would be dangerous. Your mixing beer with the medication. It could make it worse, or you can end up in the hospital.

Yes. You shouldn't drink period as it does NOTHING good for your health at all and tastes like piss, but especially if you already have a neurological condition such as epilepsy.

The best idea is to talk with your doctor as to whether it would be safe for epileptic people. We on the list here do not have enough training or knowledge to tell you about this.

Yes it can do serius damage to brain cells especially that your thirteen and especially that your epileptic.... do not drink it or serius injury will occur
