The psychological response of parents after their child is diagnosed with epilepsy is complex, generally going through stages of shock, denial, pessimism, blame, and adaptation and adjustment. Some parents can adapt more quickly and take a positive attitude toward their child and the disease. Some parents may stay at a certain stage for a long time, often over-exaggerating the disadvantages of the child, over-protecting the child, over-indulging in behavior, and neglecting education and learning, making the child with epilepsy prone to learning difficulties and emotional disorders and other behavioral problems; some parents may dislike the child, aggravating the child’s low self-esteem, negativity, isolation, or loss of confidence in the future. Some parents want to give their children the “best” treatment and keep changing doctors and medications before they can observe the effects of the medication. Parents’ bad attitude will affect the regular treatment and the child’s psychological condition. You should consult your child’s doctor about the causes of the illness, the measures to be taken in case of an attack, the efficacy of medications and possible adverse reactions, and other medical knowledge related to your child’s illness. It is very important to establish a peaceful state of mind as soon as possible and face the reality bravely to help your child adhere to long-term regular treatment, arrange your child’s daily life reasonably and deal with your child’s studies scientifically.
