Epileptics becoming mentally ill?

Posted by huxley on October 14, 2010, at 22:38:54

Is it common to have a cormorbid mental illness with epilepsy.

The reason I ask is because I have been reading up alot on lactimal and I have come across countless posts where people with epilepsy have 'developed' depression anxiety and bipolar after taking lactimal where as they claim to have had no problem with it before.

I recently read in one of the newsletters I get something about meds and epilepsy. I deleted it but will look for it. Now sure if it was for a med that worked for both epilepsy and depression anxiety or just a med epileptics took. I'm sorry. Will look Phillipa

Seems the study I read which I just posted was on zoloft for psychogenic seizures. Sorry I hadn't fully read the article. I apologize. Phillipa

Hi Huxley,

Do you have link for that? It sounds interesting although obviously, not for the people who developed these issues.
