Summary: | Background: The management of epilepsy can be reviewed in a multidimensional way, medical, psychotherapeutic, familial and social. In this regard, we are talking about the position given to the patient suffering from epilepsy.From a psychopathological point of view, there is a system of interactions between crisis and personality based on confusional anxieties, related to ambiguity and the feeling of crisis for the subject. The psychotherapeutic understanding of the patient suffering from epilepsy is situated in a bio-psycho-familial and social context. Whether it is the first, the second, or the next crises, they point out that there is an intrapsychic trauma. Conclusions: System of interactions between epilepsy, the patient and the environment contributes to the creation of the framework that will provide opportunities to help the patient. Psychotherapy sessions allow the patient to reintroduce the crisis in his history. The description of psychological experiences that are associated with the evolution of epilepsy symptoms, will allow us to form an idea about the influence of psychic trauma on the clinic and the dynamics of epilepsy, which could help identify an approach to the patient’s adaptation. |
