Abstract
Persons who have epilepsy experience many stressors related to this chronic condition. Stressors arise both from the nature of the condition and from society's misconceptions and lack of knowledge about epilepsy. The specific stressors experienced and the salience of the stressors vary from individual to individual and over time. Existing stressor scales do not identify stressors specific to epileptic seizures. This article describes an instrument developed to assess stressors associated with epilepsy and its possible uses.
