So I saw my pdoc today for the first time with her. My t came in the office with us (I've seen him 4 times now) to discuss possible medication. While speaking with her she brought up a term I'm unfamiliar with. Psuedoseizures. I'd heard something about them in passing before, my t has also mentioned my recent seizures possibly being caused by stress and anxiety. Well she brought up the name. We didn't have much time to go into detail about it since it was the first visit, I'm still planning to see the neurologist to rule out actual epilepsy (if it can be ruled out) and still working with my regular doctor to have tests done (another appointment next week) but does anyone know anyone or have these themselves? I've looked it up online now and all I seem to find really are medical forms about it, in doctor lingo. I'd really like to know about it, in english you know? I'm relatively smart and have a general idea, but I'd just like to know the experience of others who have seen this first hand. What happened to you, how did it feel when you had these, how long it took to know they were psuedoseizures and such... Anything you're willing to share please. Or of you know someone who has experienced this, anything at all you would like to share. Like, is it curable? Can you get your license back eventually? You know, the general idea of what this is and how it effects someone.
I don't know if there would be a thread for this, so I'm posting it in general mental health, if you want to move it though, please feel free to! Thank you for any help
