Mushrooms & epilepsy

Hey... a friend of mine really wants to try mushrooms but she has epilepsy... I obviously dont need the "she shouldnt take them" "of course she shouldnt take any" posts... she just wanted actual input from people who have tried or or know someone who has and what their success or lack there of was. Thanks!

Personally, If I had something like that I wouldn't be considering taking them. You asked for helpful information and this is probably the most helpful your going to get.
It's like someone whos allergic to mushrooms asking if its ok to take shrooms, it just seems to be a bad idea. Obviously it's up to your friend but per say she does have a bad trip, then the epilepsy starts to have an influence... are you going to know what to do to help control her?

A friend of mine was diagnosed with epilepsy (grand mal) when he was a kid (8-12). He takes mushrooms every once in a while now that he like 25 with no problems. They may help, they may hurt, they may do nothing. Probably has more to do with the person than the epilepsy or the mushrooms.

Makes the most sense, I think if she is emotionally comfortable with it then she should be fine. Just make sure your not full out trippin just incase you need to take care of her.

Her Grand Mals are "under control" and she only has petite mal eveery couple of months... So i donno... she wants to take like 1 gram and wing it...
And no... im not sure what to do in that situation if something happens... but i know i would be able to handle it... she said she usualyl seizes for like 1-5 min, and if its over 5 min they take her to the hospital, but she hasnt had one like that in a long time.
