I am the mum of a 28 year old who had suffered from depression low self esteem and now diagnosed with epilepsy not the fall down tremor type one called status which can last for hours. The first episode I thought what drugs has he taken. Anyway the last weeks have been extremely difficult. He hates his job his boss is an a/ hole life sucks he doesn’t care etc etc. I have contacted mental health he won’t answer their calls. He is angers and can’t think straight. I don’t know what to do.
That's good news about the progress with the meds. Hopefully things will improve for your son. Med changes can be so disruptive to the bodily systems and mental health as a result. It's always good to have people around us when trying new meds to help notice any changes. It might also be helpful for your son to keep a symptom-journal as he trials medications. It can be really helpful to look back over patterns. Would that be something he might be more open to?
