Background: Epilepsy is more common than is generally appreciated; almost 10% of the population will have at least one seizure during their lifetime. We analyzed the location of the epileptic discharge and investigated the underlying factors related to the personality traits. Materials & Methods: 100 patients at the department of Psychiatry and department of Radiology MMIMSR, Mullana, Ambala were selected. Parameters such as age, sex, residence, marital status, education, occupation, chief complaints significant past psychiatric and medical history was recorded. M.I.N.I scale and IPDE questionaire was used in the study. Results: There was significant association between personality traits and localisation of epileptogenic zone (P< 0.05). There was non- significant association between MRI changes such as cavernomas in 4, gliosis in 11, mesial temporal sclerosis in 4 and NCC and localisation of epileptogenic zone (P> 0.05). Duration of years <5 years was seen in 64, 6 to 10 years in 25 and >10 years in 11. Frequency of seizure episode was monthly in 5 and yearly in 95. Localisation epileptogenic zone was nil in 61, non-temporal lobe epilepsy in 18 and temporal lobe epilepsy in 21. Number of AEDs was monotherapy in 49, polytherapy in 51. Conclusion: Epileptic seizures are likely to have a negative impact on personality development.
