The 0-3 is when I was diagnosed an estimated time since I was young when diagnosed

I was diagnosed with JME last year but it's possible I've had epilepsy since I was a kid. As a kid I would often "space out" but you wouldn't be able to get my attention even by pinching me, but because I was diagnosed with ADHD it was written off as ADHD
