[epilepsy] Epilepsy depression

 

I am struggling with a depression that is worsening due to my epilepsy. I have had medicine controlled Epilepsy for 22 years, until January 2012. THen I suffered a very damaging grand-mal. Since then my seizures have become intractable, medicine only lessens the amount of grand mals and peti mal. I went from being a very active 30 yr mother of 3 who worked for many years in the operating room, to a shut in who has lost my career of 10 years, cant do anything I once did and now lives as a depressed shut in. I feel alone even though my family is trying hard to help. What do I do? I am on many meds and wonder if I should try anti depression meds. Does anyone have words of advice for me. Thanks, Leah.
