- People living with epilepsy have a higher incidence of psychiatric disorders than the general population. Between 25 and 50 % of people living with epilepsy will also be diagnosed with a psychiatric comorbidity the most frequent of which include depression, anxiety and attention deficit disorders in adults and children, and less frequently personality disorders and psychosis in adults.
A better understanding of the intersection of epilepsy and psychiatric disorders will help to improve screening and identification and incorporate appropriate treatment for these disorders.
