Facebook Live: Mental Health Awareness

Join us on Thursday, May 23, 2019, at 8:00 p.m. ET.

• Can epilepsy affect how I feel?
• Why do mood or mental health concerns affect people with seizures?
• Is it due to seizure medicines or the way seizures affect the brain?
• Coping with epilepsy and the way it affects me can be harder than handling seizures . What can I do?

Let’s take some time to get the facts from Dr. Salpekar and share your questions and concerns.
