Understanding Epilepsy and Mood Changes

Facebook Live on July 17th on Mood and Epilepsy

Epilepsy News From: Thursday, July 05, 2018

Facebook Live on Tuesday, July 17, 2018, at 8 p.m. ET

  • "Why do I notice mood swings?"
  • "I'm feeling down and depressed. Is it related to my seizure medicines or epilepsy?"
  • "Why do I feel more anxious lately?"

These are just a few questions frequently asked by people with epilepsy and their families. And there is not just one answer. While our brains are responsible for mood changes, what happens in our day-to-day life also affects how we feel.

Join the Epilepsy Foundation Facebook page on Tuesday, July 17, 2018, at 8 p.m. ET and talk with Andy Kanner, MD, professor of clinical neurology and director of the Comprehensive Epilepsy Center at the University of Miami. He is a well-known expert in epilepsy and neuropsychiatry.

Bring your questions!

Looking forward to talking to you on July 17th!

Note: presenters cannot address individual medical concerns and cannot provide individual advice.
