Stress and anxiety triggering seizures

Stress can be hard to avoid, but our bodies can feel its impact. For some, stress or anxiety can also be a cause of seizures. And then more stress and anxiety about having seizures can pile on top of that! It can be a vicious cycle.

**Tell us: How do you manage your stress and anxiety to avoid seizures?

  1. I sleep and remove what stressor's I can

    1. I avoid people for awhile. Never really had a friend to talk with about epilepsy, always got the cold shoulder. Sometimes I grab a book, study history, old maps or gardening. I walk with my dog to the park and let him roam free for a hour+.

      1. I listen to music

        1. Taking medication on time & get plenty of rest.
