The video of your seizure in the grocery store ended up everywhere. Gossip sites, entertainment sites, youtube, facebook, instagram, twitter... It was awful. You cried. and cried. For days. Brendon and the boys were right at your side through it all.
You were just so terribly embarrassed and felt violated. Everyone in the world has seen you at your most vulnerable without your consent.
Some people were really nice. A lot of the fans and TV hosts were genuinely sympathetic and concerned. They all wished you well.
But some people were not nice at all. They made fun of you and left the most disheartening and offensive comments.
Honestly had no idea she could break dance like that.
That awkward moment when you realize your girlfriend is possessed...
Ew all that stuff coming out of her mouth. Looks like Brendon's got himself a spitter, not a swallower!
Can she die from one of these so we can have Brendon back?
Brendon wanted to make all your hurting stop, but he couldn't. He was absolutely furious with the way people were talking about you, especially people who claimed to be his fans. After finding you in a puddle one night, horrible comments from a fan website in your hand, he took to twitter.
It disgusts me the shit "fans" will say about the people I love most. If you're one of them, just know I think you're shit. Get fucked.
Perhaps the worst part was people concocting theories about your "rock star lifestyle" and how you must have overdosed on drugs. People were writing entire pieces about your struggle with addiction–addictions that didn't even exist. "Crack whore" was the nickname for you, and it flew around the internet.
Finally, you want to put it all to rest. You are going to address it. Own it. You write up a message in your notes and post a screenshot of it on instagram.
To all of you who have been wishing me well: thank you SO much! I loved all the sweet messages you have been sending Brendon and I. I'm doing just fine now. To everyone who has tried to put me down, make fun of me, and talk shit about me: you need to take a serious look at yourself and your behavior. Have some compassion. I have epilepsy, which is a seizure disorder. Although it's well controlled, I still have seizures from time to time. I never really liked to talk about it because I didn't want people to treat me differently. But now, things have changed for me and that's why I think I owe it to myself and all of my fellow epilepsy-warriors to speak up. I have epilepsy, but epilepsy does not have me.
Sending lots of love out to all of you,
Y/nYou were too nervous to read the comments, so you had Brendon do it. He started reading all them aloud and it was incredible.
They talked about how happy they were that you were okay, that you were so strong, that you are perfect just the way you are, that they don't see you any differently... The best was how many people felt comfortable sharing their own struggles with epilepsy, a lot of them crediting you for giving them the courage to do so.
You made the absolute best of the situation you were put in. You finally felt free.
In another exciting turn of events, you and Brendon got engaged last month. You both knew you wanted to spend the rest of your lives together since the moment you met, so it was all coming true. You couldn't be happier.
