Sorry for hijacking your thread

jbmomg - there are a few things that contribute to me having a partial complex seizure. among them are lack of sleep (i recently took a night job and had two seizures where i stare into space and am not there reaction wise though i might be conscious), too much sugar in my diet (includes pasta, fresh fruit and juices), light shining directly into my eyes (especially if i have not slept well), job stresss and social interactions that, for some reason, scare me (which is common in social anxiety). in social interactions, the seizures can happen when someone says something upsetting, stands too close to me or any of the above-mentioned other triggers happen simultaneously. alcohol is also a trigger, especially if drunk on an empty stomach. by far, though, it is important for me to have enough sleep each night. that is my greatest weapon against seizures.
thanks for explaining, lack of sleep, stress and alcohol all contribute to my seizures as well. another trigger for me is reading in the car. absolutely cannot ever do that...

the correlation between the social anxiety interests me...thanks for sharing. i really appreciate the extra knowledge

and as for your original question i have no idea because i never look at t... feels safer to me that way
