This sounds like you had a seizure while you were sleeping, & you were waking up as the seizure xwas winding down. The same thing sometimes used to happen to me.

Susan,
If you have a grand mal sz-- you will not know it. When I
had them I would give out a weird cry and fall. My girls
called their dad and he always came immediately. I
didn't remember anything until I woke up in bed where
he had carried me. I would always cry because I knew
I had a sz and didn't want it. Then I would sleep
for a while. It would take me about a week to get
back to my normal self.
Do you live in the area of the earthquake this morning?
Maybe that is why you felt the bed move.
Millie

I'm home sick from work today as I was very dizzy and had an extremely bad headache where I couldn't get out of bed. I fell asleep and when I was waking up.....I felt like the bed was moving! I have never had a grand mal seizure, just auras.....was that some type of seizure?

Hi Susan
I just had to pop in here and say good morning - sun is shinning here but it is mighty hot out so am staying
inside. I most definitely know what you are thinking, but glad to see you are letting it all out. The
feeling of failing in everything you do can be the worst feeling ... but it can also make your seizures worse
(at least it did mine). I had the grand mal (with every other type before hand leading up to it) and until I
finally said to myself 'to heck with them, I don't need to drive right now it will come when meant to, and all
the other things that bothered me' I was a total wreck. What happens it is just like a balloon that bubbles
up in our gut and we hold everything in. One of these days it has to let go and the air finally lets go
whether it is slowly not.
All my life even in the deep foggy world I was in, I sure knew if someone said 'you can't do it/let me do it
for you so you don't hurt yourself/did you take your meds this a.m. (that was a big one that I hated the
most)/you can't get a job so don't even bother trying....all these things are hurtful to us and lower our self
esteem so much.
I called it being in myself being stubborn and one day just spoke my mind. Even though my hubby did not say
anything at the time, said later he was so proud of me. They really do mean the best for you and sometimes
this is the only way they can show their concern.
So remember you are NOT failing your hubby nor co workers...sometimes they just need a little more education.
Keep that big rainbow of smiles on your face there and take care.
((((Hugs))))

I was excited to celebrate the 4th with my family.It is visually alot of fun for everyone.Out of the blue I
had a seizure and have been racking my brain as to what I could have done to cause it.Gayle was in the kitchen
and asked me a question.Hearing no answer she came out to check on me.Mind you there was 2 other people in the
room.Neither one letting her know I was having a seizure.I guess she asked why she wasn't told i was having
one. She remained calm for me but was scared and mad at michelle. I came out of it and cried.Told Gayle and
rob I was tired.I was put in the bedroom to sleep for 2 hrs.All I wanted to do was cry .I feel I failed my
family.
I cant watch parade with flashing lights or fireworks unless they are still forms(pictures)
Sorry for my feelings today
