Okay, so, I had work training tonight and it was all about first aid and all that, and they talked a lot about seizures. It was as he was explaining one that he had himself, that I realized that sounds a lot like what happens to me. And it helped me remember that my psychiatrist once brought up the possibility of it being seizures, but I don't remember what happened with that...

Anyways, I'm going to bring this up with my doctor next time I see them, but I just wanted your input. Does this sound like a type of seizure?

Basically, it's like I'm falling asleep. It's so... Weird, because I'll be fully awake one minute and totally aware not feeling tired at all, then the next, my body just shuts down it feels like and I totally black out. My head bobs like I'm falling asleep and my eyes flutter and my body gets really, really tired. This usually happens a few times in a row or spaced out a bit, then I go back to being entirely normal.

I always passed it off as just falling asleep, but it makes no sense to me. I tried going to sleep earlier and getting the right amount of sleep, and I'll be fine in the morning, then all of a sudden, this happens. It' happens when I'm driving sometimes too. It really scares me.

It happens mostly in the morning, which is why I always just assumed it was being tired from just waking up, but it has happened in the afternoon too.

Anyways, I just wanted input...

Thanks!
