[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 335961, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Susie, neurologists are an arrogant lot. Having said that, the years that my seizures were not controlled my anxiety went through the roof. I walked around terrifed - when is the next seizure going to hit. I couldn't relax. Sweetie, it may be a combo of both. It took years to find the right medication to gain control over my seizures. I'm not saying that will happen with J ~ just want you to remember just being ill like this will make the anxiety worse which will make the physical illness worse, which will make the anxiety worse, etc, etc, etc, See where I'm going here. I had help from a therapist; I stopped seeing myself as a seizure, if you will, & began having a life. J, if at all possible with a chronic condition, needs to try the same. Don't let J take on the "sick role". Please don't take this as a criticism - it's not meant that way. Just a way to deal with the day to day life while you are looking for answers. J needs to be a kid while you & the docs figure this out. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
