Has Anyone Been Told Their Seizures Are Stress Induced
My daughters Atonic and Myoclonic seizures would happen when she got worked up over taking her seizure meds. She is 4 though but it seemed stress induced.
Yes. Try to find something that you like to do to keep your stress level low. I like to crochet and go out for walks or to the gym 🏋️♂️ 💪.

She doesn’t really react now except she hesitates but taking meds was new to her. We tried making it fun and putting it in anything she wanted but she refused. Turns out she wants the meds straight up by them selves. At one point we had to hold her down to give them to her because she would literally fight us and we had to get her meds in. We always tried to do it her way first and be relaxed and make it fun but she fought us every step of the way. No we set up meds together. Get her a drink and slowly dispense her liquid meds in her mouth and she sips water between a few mL’s of meds. She takes a god awful amount. Also using the Mios or liquid squeeze drink mix in with her liquid meds helps flavor it the way she wants. She hasn’t had drop seizures or myoclonic seizures since March but tonic clonic seizures have been the main issue for a while.
Seizures can be Triggered by,
Stress/depression/suicidal thoughts
Lack of sleep
Not taking on by scheduled time
And other basic triggers
Yes, stress is a familiar seizure starter for me.
