Normalizing depression in epilepsy: Screening, diagnosis, treatment - Dr. Rosa Michaelis

lundi 10 novembre 2025 • Durée 22:27

Send comments and feedback

Nearly 1 in 4 people with epilepsy experiences depression, which affects quality of life, seizure control, and adherence to treatment. Depressive symptoms - including suicidality - are one of the strongest predictors of poor quality of life in people with epilepsy, and they can be overlooked or minimized both by people with epilepsy and by clinicians. Sharp Waves spoke with Dr. Rosa Michaelis about the role of neurologists in discussing, screening, diagnosing, and treating depression as a crucial part of patient care.
