Dealing with the fear

Sun, 02/09/2020 - 05:29
Hi. I've had epilepsy for 10+ years now but still haven't learned to deal with the fear of having a seizure which leads to a seizure and more fear etc A vicious cycle. I have complex partial seizures, and the day after an especially bad one I can hardly move for the fear. I bring them on through interacting with people mainly. How do you guys deal with the fear?
