? when did eplipsy turn into "crazy" or -using your words-: "a mess up in the head"?
Aside from the ignorant remark; I take it to be a very strange desperate accusation.
Ancients knew epilepsy and civilizations like Greece even provided ways to control it:

Quote:Long before anticonvulsant drugs were made available in the 1950s, epileptics would linit their diet as a way to control seizures. Ancient Greeks noticed that periods of fasting would cause seizures to become more infrequent and less severe, while the Bible mentions fasting as an effective treatment. In the early 1900s, many epileptic patients resorted to the so-called ketogenic diet, which is high in fat and low in carbohydrates, because it was thought to mimic the physiological effects of fasting. Scientists have confirmed that these dietary restrictions somehow trigger biochemical changes that short circuit parts of the brain causing the seizures. But the mechanism underlying this therapeutic effect has remained a mystery.
So it's so sad for me to see a people who still use the "Mohammed was an epileptic" broken record in discussions. Admit that you have nothing to say against my argument and shut up, but the accusation -after being so hilarious- are turning into a very sad syndrome that you suffer from.
Epilepsy =/= messed up in the head, you're the only one messed up in the head here.
