I read that people with psychogenic non epileptic seizures have a high rate of not dealing with their problems. They push them fair away and avoid thinking about them them or work it out. I've done that for almost 11 years now. I have to wear a mask so no one sees the true me or they get mad at me for being depressed, etc. My primary diagnosis is schizoaffective, so you could imagine how mentally exhausting that is when no medication works to help my hallucinations or paranoia. Is it possible for your brain to just go into overload mode and mimic seizures because it can't handle the stress level? I'm trying to figure out the cause. The ambulance checked me out and said I was find. I didn't go go find hospital. (They didn't even bother checking my medical usb drive I wear as a necklace for cases like that) For some reason, I thought it was 2012 until a few hours before i went to bed. Is it really possible for stress to mimic seizures?

here in america when mental problems show their self in physical ways (aches pains, seizures, mobility problems.....) its called conversion disorder... short version the mental symptoms are converted into physical. treatment for it is the same as the mental disorder that is being converted into physical symptoms. in some cases like physical treatments are added like physical therapy, meds... conversion disorder is a short term problem that clears up with treatment.

my suggestion is go according to what your treatment providers are treating you as and continue to follow their treatment plans for you and you will be feeling better soon.
