The experts remind us that it is very difficult to buy a ticket for the Chinese New Year, and some people stay up all night to buy a good ticket, and their moods fluctuate when it is hard to buy a ticket, but epileptic patients should not be emotionally agitated, or else they will easily suffer from epileptic seizures. People with epilepsy should try to keep their emotions calm, and they should also avoid staying up all night.

Since seizures are sudden and occur suddenly without any signs, which often bring some accidental injuries, people with epilepsy and their family members should know some of the seizure triggers and avoid exposure to these triggers to reduce the possibility of seizures.

Strong sound and light stimulation: the stimulation of noisy environment and light source will make the patient experience irritability, panic, accelerated heartbeat and mental tension, which will easily make the brain nerves over-excited and lead to seizures. Patients with epilepsy should avoid prolonged exposure to loud noises and bright lights in noisy environments. 2, stay up late, tired: stay up late and tired is also a major factor in triggering epileptic seizures, so epileptic patients in the holiday season, but also pay attention to reasonable rest, avoid staying up late, tired and so on. 3, the stimulation of temperature: winter weather is colder, the temperature is unpredictable, the stimulation of temperature can also induce epilepsy. So epilepsy patients should do warm measures to avoid cold air stimulation induced seizures. Warm tips: epileptic seizures are very sudden and easy to cause accidents, so epileptic patients, whether in ordinary life or holidays, need to eat reasonably, pay attention to rest, to avoid triggering epileptic seizures, causing serious harm.
