I am very sad to hear that this has reared it's ugly head in your life kiya.

I am aware of a person that has them. It affects her life in a horrid and very constant way. She is very brave.

"The signs and symptoms of pseudoseizures resemble those of epileptic seizures. A person suffering from pseudoseizures may experience falls and shaking of the body (similar to convulsions found in epileptic seizures). They may also experience a temporary loss of focus or attention and engage in staring behavior, also signs of epileptic seizures. Memory lapses, body tremors, fainting, and confusion are also harbingers of both pseudoseizures and epileptic seizures."


I think the phrase pseudo-seizures is a very poor name to give this event. They are not fake at all but very real. Painful. Tiring. The loss of body control is not the fault of the person who is having them. There seems to be a many things that can trigger them. At this point in time they are saying the root of it is stress. Stress can come from 'bad' events and 'happy events'. And yet there are other things that can also bring them on.

They are more common than people are aware of. https://www.epilepsy.com/article/201...eptic-seizures

I am trying to find the page on another site where the causes are listed but it is eluding me right now.
