BACKGROUND
Common mental illness has a substantial impact on seizure control and negatively affects the overall quality of life among individuals with epilepsy. However, there is a dearth of studies that examined the associated factors of common mental illness among epilepsy patients in Ethiopia, particularly in the study area. This study aimed to assess the magnitude and factors associated with common mental disorders in epilepsy patients who attended government health institutions in Bahir Dar city, Ethiopia.
METHOD
Health institution based cross-sectional study was conducted using a systematic sampling technique among people living with epilepsy in Bahir Dar City Administration. Common mental illness was assessed using a self-reporting questionnaire and a semi-structured questionnaire was employed to collect data on socio-demographic and clinical related characteristics. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, univariate logistic regression, and multivariable logistic regression.
RESULTS
The magnitude of comorbid common mental illness among people living with epilepsy was found 35.4%. High magnitude of common mental illness was reported among females (39.9%) when compared to males (32.3%). The most prevalent common mental disorders symptoms include being worried, unhappy feeling, trouble thinking clearly, and difficult to enjoy daily activities. Family history of epilepsy, frequent seizures attacks, side effects of antiepileptic drugs, lack of social support and not adherent to antiepileptic drugs were factors associated with common mental illness.
CONCLUSIONS
Common mental illness was found to be prevalent among people living with epilepsy. Therefore, it is recommended that great attention should be given to mental illness besides controlling seizure attacks.

埃塞俄比亚巴赫达尔市癫痫患者常见的精神疾病：一项横断面研究。
背景技术常见的精神疾病对癫痫发作控制有重大影响，并对癫痫患者的整体生活质量产生负面影响。然而，缺乏调查埃塞俄比亚癫痫患者常见精神疾病相关因素的研究，特别是在该研究地区。本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚巴赫达尔市政府卫生机构就诊的癫痫患者常见精神障碍的严重程度和相关因素。方法 采用系统抽样技术，对巴赫达尔市政府的癫痫患者进行了基于卫生机构的横断面研究。使用自我报告问卷评估常见精神疾病，并采用半结构化问卷收集社会人口统计和临床相关特征的数据。使用描述性统计、单变量逻辑回归和多变量逻辑回归分析数据。结果 癫痫患者合并常见精神疾病的比例为 35.4%。与男性 (32.3%) 相比，女性 (39.9%) 的常见精神疾病严重程度较高。最普遍的常见精神障碍症状包括担心、不快乐的感觉、清晰思考困难以及难以享受日常活动。癫痫家族史、癫痫发作频繁、抗癫痫药物副作用、缺乏社会支持和不坚持服用抗癫痫药物是常见精神疾病的相关因素。结论 发现癫痫患者普遍存在常见精神疾病。因此，建议除了控制癫痫发作外，还应高度重视精神疾病。
