Adolescence is a time of rapid physical, psychological and social development. For young people with epilepsy, the normal needs and concerns associated with being an adolescent are complicated by the demands of a condition that can place additional limits on lifestyle and independence. It is essential for healthcare professionals to consider the effect of epilepsy on the lives of young adults and to recognise the specific needs of this patient group. This article provides an overview of the psychosocial effect of epilepsy on adolescents and makes recommendations for nursing practice.
