Mine, I can be super high functioning for weeks/months+++ then I have one and cannot recall how to do the simplest things I had done just moments minutes or however long before. They say I will stop & blankly stare. Sometimes before that I will chatter much or even begin to speak with an odd accent in my words.
But after I lose so much info and I am supposed to keep functioning at normal and it just doesn't happen & it isn't possible.
I wish I understood more.

Thanks for that piece of advice about the eyes Tim. That I didn't know before. I do know that the
non-epilepsy seizure can be talking to you, go into a seizure, come out, and start talking directly where they
left off...no blanks in sentence no nothing + everything makes perfect sense as if nothing had happened. Yet
it looks, acts and as serious as a G.M.

Trish,
If you've had both epileptic and nonepileptic seizures,was there anybody that
has seen both?I've seen that during epileptic seizures the eyes remain
open,but;during all non-epilepic seizures a persons eyes close up.Is it possible
to be true. Tim Baldwin

Hi Tim,

but after working with my epi. psychologist i am now able to talk myself out of
them.I was also showed how my epileptic ones were different so now I have been
seizure free for almost a yr, My doc even took me off 2 of my meds i still take
carbatrol though.She says I may get a drivers license now if i want to.

Has anyone with uncontrollable epilepsy found they have PNES(Psychogenic
Non-Epileptic Seizures).These seizures do not respond to anti epilepsy
drugs(AED).Epilepsy seizures come on because of electrical activity.If you have
a non-epileptic seizure during a video EEG and it's not on the EEG but looked
like a seizure to nurses.It was probably PNES.A few people with real epilepsy
also have some PNES.
