16yr w/grand mal seizures, eyelid myokomia and anxiety disorder

Mon, 08/25/2014 - 18:30

So I'm 16 years old (female), I've had epilepsy since I was 6. I have grand mal seizures and seizures w/my eyes (eyelid myokomia). I know most people who have eyelid myokomia don't have seizures when their eyes flutter but I do. I was just wondering if anyone else had it and how people deal w/anxiety? Anxiety is a major trigger for me, I've tried therapy and it doesn't help.
