My four year old brother has severe epilepsy. I am a 13 year old going through this and just wanted to share. It is really hard for me to see him go through that all the time. You don't have to follow these strategies but they are a good start. Feel free to add on to this list. I want to learn even more. The coping strategies are: 1. Be Calm, if you are not calm your brother will pick up on your anxiety and will most likely get more upset and scared. 2. Do your own research, you will not believe the nonsense some people say about children with epilepsy. You also will learn more about his disorder so you can be calm. 3. NEVER EVER make light of the situation, in doing so your brother will feel less important and sometimes neglected.
