I have had epilepsy now for a few years. I have suffered from anxiety for many years. Having epilepsy has added very much to the anxiety. It has stopped me doing so much because i fear i will have a fit whils doing things. For a while i would not leave the house in case i had a fit. I go out now but it stops me doing so much as i try to lead a so called normal life. If i start to do things i think but what if i have a fit. Then it stops me doing it. Or if i do try to do things then i sometimes have a panic attack. Does anyone else have problems like this. Just posting to get some moral suppot really
