Patient's question:
My child doesn't know how he contracted epilepsy. The seizures usually don't occur at fixed times; they can suddenly happen even when everything is fine. Whenever a seizure occurs, he experiences hand and foot convulsions, especially during playtime. I want to understand if epilepsy patients need psychological therapy. What kind of help is needed: Do epilepsy patients need psychological therapy?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy patients do not necessarily all need psychological therapy. Only some patients cannot understand that they have epilepsy again, which leads to psychological diseases such as low self-esteem, thereby interfering with the treatment of epilepsy. If the patient does not have these conditions, then there is no need to see a psychologist. These are all individual differences. The above is advice on the question "Do epilepsy patients need psychological therapy?" I hope it helps you. Wish you health!
