Welcome to the Defeating Epilepsy Foundation! In this video, we discuss why social anxiety disorder is a significant comorbidity for individuals with epilepsy. We dive into the statistics behind this relationship, the psychological impact of stigma and self-esteem, the brain regions involved (like the amygdala and hippocampus), and evidence-based therapeutic and pharmacological treatment strategies to improve overall quality of life.
