A diagnosis of epilepsy can touch on so many aspects of a person’s life such as affecting confidence and self-esteem, as well as job, social life, leisure activities, driving, and independence. These sudden changes to a person’s life may lead to increased stress and anxiety.
This service is helping you understand the link between stress and seizures and will give you the tools to address these underlying issues which often go hand in hand with epilepsy, potentially leading to an improvement in seizure control.
Our Wellbeing service is a holistic service which offers:
- 1:1 support (up to 16 121 sessions)
- peer support group
- activity group
- access to professional counselling
- opportunities to volunteer
- as well as access to information on specific subjects such as memory and lifestyle
If you live outside Glasgow or have difficulty accessing our office, don’t worry we also have a strong online peer support group you may wish to join.
