Your experience following epilepsy and the ongoing challenges you face with mental clarity and emotional stability are significant, and it's essential to approach these concerns holistically. In Ayurveda, your symptoms may relate to imbalances in Sadhaka Pitta, which governs mental clarity and emotions, and Vata dosha, which influences the nervous system. To support your recovery and enhance mental well-being, a multifaceted approach involving diet, lifestyle, and herbal remedies is recommended.
Focus on a nourishing, balanced diet that includes whole, natural foods. Incorporate brain-boosting foods such as ghee, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and fresh fruits and vegetables. These foods help support the nervous system and enhance cognitive function. Avoid stimulants like caffeine and processed foods, which can aggravate Vata and lead to anxiety and restlessness.
Herbs like Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) and Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) are well-known in Ayurveda for their neuroprotective properties and ability to support mental clarity and emotional stability. These can help reduce stress and anxiety, promoting a calmer mind. Additionally, Shankhapushpi (Convolvulus pluricaulis) can enhance cognitive function and memory, further aiding in your mental recovery.
Regular practices such as yoga and meditation are highly beneficial for calming the mind and improving focus. Gentle Pranayama (breathing exercises) can also help manage stress and promote relaxation. Establishing a consistent daily routine, including regular sleep patterns, can significantly enhance mental and emotional well-being.

Hello Shashank, sorry for knowing your suffering! Have you tried consulting your doctors about this issue? It could the left over effect of the earlier medications or severe stress associated with it! Please try and get yourself examined by a local but expert Ayurvedic doctor who do all the necessary examinations and might ask for some tests. In the meantime also see a good psychotherapist who will understand your emotional issues and will guide you step by step in overcoming your fears. Don’t do self medication at all.

It sounds like you've been dealing with quite a lot, but first, I want to talk about how you're feeling mentally. I know that can be really tough. It's really important to have patience with yourself and not worry too much about what others say. In Ayurveda, mental health and clarity are linked closely with the state of your ojas - that vital energy that is the essence of your immunity and mental stability.
Let's consider your lifestyle and diet - these can be crucial in balancing your mind and mental state. Try integrating a few Ayurvedic practices. Start with a morning routine where you engage in pranayama (breathing exercises) to help calm your mind. Anulom Vilom and Bhramari pranayama can be particularly soothing.
Food-wise, stick to a diet that pacifies Vata dosha, as it tends to get aggravated in cases of mental disorders. Warm, cooked, moist foods such as a stew or khichdi are excellent. Avoid cold, raw, or overly processed foods. Favor tastes that are sweet, sour, and salty - they are grounding.
Herbs can be supportive too. Ashwagandha is known for its adaptogenic properties, meaning it helps your body to adapt to stress and promote mental balance. It can be taken as a capsule or mixed into warm milk before bedtime.
Meditation is another beneficial practice. Even if it's just 10 minutes a day, it can significantly impact your mental health. It might feel tough at first, but with consistency, you'll notice a change.
It's crucial, though, that you do not stop taking your prescribed medication, unless advised by your healthcare professional. Ayurveda can complement modern medicine, not replace it, especially in conditions like epilepsy. And it helps to talk to someone you trust when feeling misunderstood by others - friend, family or mental health counselor. They often provide comfort and help to ground your perspective.
Your journey is unique, and it’s completely okay to need help along the way. You’re not alone in this.
