A member asked:
I started having seizures at 15, but it started after i did some cocaine, what caused it and why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Adolescence: Adolescence is a typical time for certain types of seizures to show themselves. Drug use, poor health habits, and dramatic hormone changes all contribute. Fortunately the brain can settle down and re-organize. In absence of serious brain pathology, seizures may resolve with time and good management.
