There can be, epilepsy patients are just sudden abnormal discharges of neurons in the brain, resulting in transient brain dysfunction. Some epilepsy patients need to take long-term medication there are social activities can relieve the patient's mental stress, increase the patient's interest and broaden their horizons, so it is recommended that patients actively participate in social activities.

A college friend of mine, who had a seizure caused by a car accident, and who subsequently was still doing relatively well at work and socially, and we had frequent get-togethers together, and I would often tell him what he should and shouldn't do. In terms of our social relationship, there is no difference from a normal person.

Of course, there are also many patients who themselves have low self-esteem, thinking that their brains are not working well anymore and that their interpersonal relationships have faded. In fact, for every person with epilepsy, there are their own difficult feelings, and it is these lack of self-confidence that makes this group of people have a lot of barriers in socializing. Of course, for the whole group of people in society, eliminating this so-called inequality still requires a longer period of time for the overall cognition of our society to be further improved, and this is not a personal problem, but a social problem.

The general understanding of epilepsy is incomplete across cultures, regions and perceptions. Many employers, classmates, teachers, coworkers, friends, and even family members can be psychologically damaging to patients with epilepsy if they are even a little bit neglectful or indifferent to them. This leads to a decrease in the patient's overall satisfaction with their family, organization, circle of friends, and society.

Many people would think that epileptic patients are actually psychologically deficient, whereas those who really have some general medical knowledge would know that epilepsy is a neurological disorder, which has nothing to do with the psyche. It is also due to a variety of one-sided perceptions and discrimination, resulting in epilepsy patients with psychological and emotional fluctuations will sometimes be very large, and this emotional fluctuations and then aggravate the seizures, such a vicious circle, for the patients both psychological and physiological are very unfavorable. This makes their social circle and circle of friends much smaller than normal people, and even affects marital relationships. Both the education level and the employment rate are much lower than that of the general public.

Human beings are born equal, no matter what disease you have. This requires the efforts of our society as a whole, but of course, it also has a lot to do with yourself, you must not be presumptuous, only their own body and heart is strong, in order to eliminate all kinds of interference. In fact, we can still see that the whole society is progressing, people's cognitive level is also improving, the phenomenon of discrimination is still relatively small, at least a few friends with epilepsy around me, life is still very happy, but also have their own children, loved ones and friends.

So, for people with epilepsy, instead of obsessing about the need to have social relationships, you should think about how to make your social relationships stronger. Have a kind of:- "When will the dragon be bound by the long tassel today?" The mindset.

My answer is yes, epileptic patients at the disease itself on the person outside, the disease after the heart of the change is also can not be ignored, so the treatment should be drug-based, supplemented by the heart, or both.

Common mental disorders in people with epilepsy include.

1. Fear and loneliness: epilepsy for many people do not understand, thought it is an incurable disease, sometimes patients consciously or unconsciously worried about their epilepsy? They don't dare to go out to study or work, so they fall into fear and loneliness, and are afraid to participate in collective activities. Especially in adolescent patients.

2. Pessimism When epilepsy patients start taking medication, they may not be able to completely control their condition at once, and every time they have a seizure, the patient is greatly traumatized, which is a reason for pessimism. Therefore, it is important to recognize that epilepsy is a chronic disease that requires a long time to treat, do not be discouraged, and even generate thoughts of despair.

3. Melancholy: Epilepsy requires long-term treatment and often makes patients sullen, depressed, moody and uninterested in anything around them.

4. Low self-esteem: Because there is a lot of uncertainty in epileptic seizures, people around the patient often, intentionally or unintentionally, cause psychological harm to the patient, even if the patient's relatives or people around him excessive care, protection, will cause the patient to have a sense of low self-esteem.

These psychological disorders in epileptic patients, if not channeled in a timely manner, are associated with decreased social skills, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, and even aggressive behaviors (physical and verbal) and even self-injury.

After the patient is full of confidence in the disease, through regular medication, to master their own morbidity pattern, and more participation in social activities can reduce these mental barriers. If the patient does not have this awareness, as a family member, should be full of confidence, through regular medication, to master their own morbidity pattern, and encourage the patient to participate in more social activities to eliminate the psychological barriers.

More warmth needed during seizures

People with epilepsy often lose consciousness at the onset of a seizure and are unaware of the exact course of the seizure themselves, and without someone else relaying the story, they don't even know they are having a seizure.

The family can inform him in detail about the specific symptoms, and video recordings can be made to show the patient. Recognizing one's disease is the first step to accepting it, which relates to subsequent cooperation with treatment.

When patients know they have epilepsy, they worry about having seizures in public and being ridiculed and alienated, thus they often have low self-esteem and depression and are reluctant to go out and participate in activities.

In fact, under good control of medication, patients participate in social activities, which can gain friendship, build up self-confidence, and be in a happy mood, which is conducive to the control of the disease. Family members should encourage patients to go out more often to participate in activities, not alone at home.

Because of the special form of seizures, patients need to pay attention to safety. There are some places they should not go, such as water or high places, and some activities they should not take part in, such as swimming, diving, driving, etc., in order to avoid drowning, falling or traffic accidents during a seizure. These taboos can only be enforced if they are understood, so family members need to be patient and communicate, especially when the patient is young.

Epilepsy treatment focuses on seizure control

Although epileptic seizures are very harmful, the lack of consciousness during a seizure may lead to falls and injuries, and if there is secretion in the mouth it may cause choking. Persistent seizures can also lead to apnea and lack of oxygen to the brain, and high-frequency discharges during a seizure can cause direct damage to the brain, leading to memory loss and mental retardation over time.

However, there are many famous epileptics throughout history, such as Julius Caesar, Napoleon the Great, Nobel and Socrates. They achieved their greatness despite the lack of medical care and medication. In fact, epilepsy is just a disease that can be controlled and even cured through medical intervention. People with epilepsy are not crazy, there are no epileptics, and the disease is not contagious. As long as the seizures can be controlled, it is perfectly possible to live, work, make friends, get married and have children as normal. Therefore, it is not only people with epilepsy who need to be treated, but also society at large that misunderstands epilepsy and discriminates against people with epilepsy.

　　This question is answered by Li Tianfu from Sanbo Brain Hospital of Capital Medical University, looking forward to your attention~

　　People with epilepsy should certainly have social relationships, and neither the person themselves nor others should view themselves or others through colored glasses.

People with epilepsy need to know for themselves

　　Some epilepsy patients will have a sense of inferiority and thus avoid interacting with others or develop a hostile mentality, irritability, emotional instability, which can easily lead to conflicts with others, resulting in poor interpersonal relationships and occupational adaptability disorders, which have an impact on work, study and life. Epilepsy patients can turn to professionals to receive systematic treatment; in addition, they need to understand their own psychology, find out their own weaknesses, and see what kind of psychological development they have towards the disease, so as to stabilize their own emotions in the process of targeted epilepsy treatment and maintain a calm and confident state of mind; stay away from some occasions that can make them affected, for example, many environments can cause overreaction of the patient, so that the The patient is mentally stimulated, and these are the factors that trigger epilepsy.

The people around you need to know.

　　We all need to know that most epilepsy patients will not suffer from mental and intellectual disorders as long as they receive systematic and regular treatment at an early stage, and they are by no means psychotic or "crazy". They can work, live and study like normal people. They can work, live and study as normal people do. They should also enjoy love and family happiness as normal people do. Therefore, patients with epilepsy who are under complete or basic control should not be discriminated against when it comes to marriage.

　　Especially for people with epilepsy who are of school age, the demeanor and attitude of teachers and classmates can sometimes have a subtle impact on the patient's life. Warm support and comfort. In fact, most people with epilepsy can participate in normal learning and activities. As a teacher, you should always communicate and discuss with the parents about the patient's study and living arrangements, and if necessary, get in touch with the doctor, and pay attention to the patient with double the patience and attention.

I'm sure it's fine! Don't we all advocate not to discriminate against AIDS nowadays? Generally speaking, hugging, eating together, shaking hands, are not contagious, because AIDS is mainly transmitted by blood-borne diseases, such as sharing needles, sexually transmitted infections, drug abuse, and so on. Epilepsy is not a big deal! If you don't have epilepsy, you can work like a normal person as long as you don't have high-risk jobs, make friends, do volunteer work, and so on! Reduce discrimination and promote tolerance.

There is no disease that should limit social relationships, except for children who are not fully competent, and schizophrenic patients. Epilepsy, whose pathogenesis is episodic abnormal discharges of nerve cells, mostly does not affect intelligence or judgment, and there is no reason to limit normal socialization.

The cause of epilepsy is generally induced by lesions in the central nervous system of the human brain, and the symptoms of this disease are that the patient has no obvious signs and symptoms, and falls to the ground in a state of confusion, stiffens, spits foam from the corners of the mouth, emits screams from the throat, and stops twitching of the whole body, etc., and the domains have a pained expression of the face with the aid of the choice of the stand, and some patients have a localized onset of the disease in the body.


Therefore, if you have a seizure in a public place, you will be shocked. Therefore, in the outside public places when the onset of unknown causes of people see will be shocked cough feeling, which in fact does not matter much, such as knowing the onset of seizures want to fall to the ground when the crowd to hold in case of head collision trauma, the patient lying flat on the ground to keep breathing, to be a few minutes will slowly wake up to the history of the onset of the recovery of sanity, the normal.
People suffering from this disease are mainly prevented from working at heights and in watery locations to prevent life-threatening outbreaks. As for other social relationships without the disease Envy is the same. He should not be discriminated against, and help him with tolerance and compassion, which also reveals a person's good character.

There should be, people with epilepsy are no different from normal people when they don't have seizures, they are just more scary when they do, but with regular medication some of them can not have many seizures. Epilepsy is the same as being sick. You can't be deprived of normal social relationships just because you're sick! So people with epilepsy can have normal social relationships.

Why can't we have it? Even if you have some defects of your own, and it does not affect socialization, you should feel free to be bold, to socialize, people with epilepsy are only, intermittently, you should feel free to socialize, to broaden your horizons, to improve your interests, you should have confidence, to look after yourself.
