Re: [epilepsy] Re: pop awake?

 

I think a lot of people pop awake...I wonder if it isn't a seizure for you Kim,
but some other problem. Are you able to fall right back asleep afterward? I do
frequently have hallucinations and yell in my sleep or sit up suddenly and speak
jibberish, but no one has ever told me exactly whether it is a seizure or night
terror or something else.
