Seizure Trigger: Stress Its public enemy #1 for people with epilepsy. Issues at work, with family or friends, anxiety, etc; stress affects every one of us. Stress causes seizures because the body releases a hormone known as cortisol to combat it. This hormone increases blood sugar, suppresses the immune system, and slows your metabolism among other things that lower our seizure threshold. *Reduce stress by taking short breaks throughout the day, resting, or doing something that calms you. #epilepsyawareness #stress #seizuretrigger
