For instance, a few years back, I used to have these episodes where out of nowhere, I'd start smelling an intense burning smell, but no one else around me could smell it. One time, I woke up from a nap and ran outside of my bedroom because it smelled like the house was on fire only to find that there was absolutely nothing on fire. Or sometimes I would start to smell a chemically smell. Everything I read when I tried researching what would cause this said it was a type of seizure, but every time I express my concerns about seizures to others, they just laugh at me.
Another thing is that sometimes when I'm half asleep, I start involuntarily biting down every few seconds, and I can't control it. Everything I read said that's related to seizures too. I think I do it in my sleep too because sometimes I jolt awake because I bit my tongue really hard in my sleep. Or sometimes I wake up with this difficult to describe feeling where I'm really dizzy and feel like there's a bunch of pressure in my eyes and I'm about to lose consciousness...I wonder if that could be a form of seizure too..not sure what else it could be.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone knows if seizures could cause me to have these periods where I feel the complete opposite of myself. Not saying I do have seizures, but it's something that has crossed my mind.

Im sorry but we can not tell you whether you are having seizures or not, only your treatment providers can do that...
In general for some people yes these same symptoms can be because of a seizure disorder, for others it isnt..
if you google your symptoms you will find millions upon millions of medical and mental and normal things your symptoms can be.
Im going to be blunt here...I have read your other posts and I see that your doctors have tried to set up tests to find out whats going on in your head, but you keep refusing to go through with doing those tests...

theres a saying in mental health ...you cant help those who wont help their self......
what that means is that your doctors are trying to help you but you refuse their help so of course they cant do anything for you...
welll the same goes for here...we cant diagnose you, it is you that must tell us what your diagnosis's are and what your problems are...
we can tell you whether we have had the same problems and what our own doctors called it in us but theres thousands of members here so that means theres thousands of people who may have the same symptoms but their doctors called the same symptom by thousands of different normal, diseases, disordered things.
if you want help then get those tests done that they are trying to set up for you to do and you keep refusing to do..
the way to get your doctors to help you is by you helping you self by following what your doctors want you to do..
