My son is 12 with a 6 year diagnosis of epilepsy with no known origin. He is on 100 milligrams of lamotrigine bid. I have had to go to the school on multi occasions and pick him up because he is out of control throwing chairs, trashcans, hitting walls, and on occasion teachers. Could these outburst be seizure related? He does not remember the outburst or what he was mad at. He has ADHD,PPD-nos, ptsd.
The party line about neurologists/epidemiologists has always been that directed aggressive or violent behavior with the intent to intend or hurt someone was NEVER seizure related and was assumed psychiatric.  However, now there is ample evidence that such events do happen as a result of massive aberrant electrical discharges in the Frontotemporal regions of the brain and patients can do very specific bizarre, complex, and even violent acts with the intent to hurt or destroy property.  Amnesia for the event is virtually universal in the patient and is usually a clue to its validity or not.  Multidisciplinary approaches must be used in such cases otherwise the patient will never gain any trust in anybody at school and in fact, could develop fears and anxiety syn Chat Doctor.  If you'd like to ask me more questions and if you actually have any EEG reports on this patient then, please visit me at
