Epilepsy & Behavior, 2002Studies on nonepileptic seizures (NES) provide dichotomous data sets: extensive observational findings, but a paucity of controlled treatment data. Psychosocial stressors, whose full impact may lie outside a patient's awareness, often underlie NES. These stressors, along with patient's learned patterns of coping, may bring forth or potentiate comorbid ...

Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures
2012Treatment for PNES must be individualized. A combination of approaches is probably the most beneficial for improvement. Treatment should not simply emphasize removing maladaptive PNES behaviour, but should also focus on learning new coping skills and removing secondary gains. If PNES persist, therapy should be re-evaluated.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
The primary goal of treatment in nonepileptic seizures (NES) is to improve the patient's quality of life by terminating seizure production or reducing seizure frequency. Initial treatment consists of explaining the diagnosis and its psychological nature to patients without judging them or giving the NES excessive attention. Next, help patients identify
