Resilience, being able to bounce back or cope with difficult events, is helpful when thinking about coping with the stress of having a child with a chronic illness such as epilepsy. The stress can increase if the child also has a behavioral or mental health issue. Resilience is the idea that we develop strength in response to stress, and we can use that strength to help us get through trying situations. It can be summed up in the old adage, “Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” It is our strengths plus the coping mechanisms we develop that help us.
