It is not clear how the psychosocial well-being of young people with epilepsy is affected by growing up with the condition. We studied self-esteem and sense of coherence in a group of young adults with epilepsy and compared the results with those obtained 5 years earlier.
The participants (n = 97) answered questionnaires regarding self-esteem, sense of coherence, and medical characteristics.
Self-esteem and sense of coherence both decreased during the 5-year study period. Self-esteem was correlated to epilepsy-related variables. Participants who were seizure free scored higher on sense of coherence, but there was no association between seizure frequency and sense of coherence among participants who still experienced seizures.
We found that there was a decline in both sense of coherence and self-esteem over time for young adults with epilepsy. Growing up with epilepsy can lead to impairment of sense of coherence. Sense of coherence does not significantly correlate with epilepsy-related factors, but mirrors the phenomenon of epilepsy. Self-esteem is associated with such epilepsy-related factors as seizure frequency.
目前尚不清楚患有癫痫的年轻人的心理健康状况会如何受到成长过程中患病的影响。我们研究了一组癫痫青年的自尊和整体感，并将结果与 5 年前的结果进行了比较。
参与者（n=97）回答了关于自尊、整体感和医疗特征的问卷。
在 5 年的研究期间，自尊和整体感都有所下降。自尊与癫痫相关变量相关。无发作的参与者在整体感方面得分较高，但在仍有发作的参与者中，发作频率与整体感之间没有关联。
我们发现，癫痫青年的整体感和自尊随着时间的推移都呈下降趋势。在成长过程中患有癫痫会导致整体感受损。整体感与癫痫相关因素没有显著相关性，但反映了癫痫现象。自尊与发作频率等与癫痫相关的因素有关。
