@wichitarick Sometimes it sits softly ,never revealing IT'S function. Then maybe a Tic a twitch ,A revelation that IT is near. IT is always angry with me,a twist ,a twirl,a clinch with a fist. Sometimes I smile ,IT has power how can I resist.

@wichitarick Do I get to prepare, a soft bed or just a cold stare? Like a 1,000 anvils the weight, we try but the power is great. A BIG whoosh and a SLAM a reminder to beware. Angry growl,deafening howl,spit,blood, IT does not hide IT DOES NOT CARE! "my response to the crafty side of this creeping into the room with you OR ME! Love Rick Wichita Ks.

My Mum has Complex Partial Seizures every week, more then once too. She's "off" for more then 30mins each time. It sucks and theres nothing anyone can do, including myself.

@looker768 Yes there is(as he said) it's called a simple partial seizure. If any of the 3 listed(awareness, memory, conscious) are affected ie.(loss of memory or repeating the same thing over again and again without noticing) then it would be a complex partial.

[looker768]

Can a person still be conscious and aware during a seizure? Enough to talk back and respond to questions during a seizure?

@AshyL17 I found out it was "Sleep Paralysis" Check that out on google or youtube! It's crazy! It happens when you suddenly change your sleep habits, or are stressed out etc.. It's so crazy! Anyone can get it.. I stopped getting them.

I've had Complex partial and tonic clonic/Grand Mal seizures since i was 11yrs old aprox 10-12 per month,29yrs old and doing really well now,I reached surgery on left temporal lobe on July 2010 after 17yrs and done so well post-surgery now,not had any seizures since surgery was done,consultants are very confident i'll never have seizures again

[AshyL17]

@mtallicuhh no. you probably have a TMJ disorder. Like clenching the jaw when asleep.

[AshyL17]

@CurlyFries120 yes, you can get seizures in your sleep.

It is beyond my comprehension why these videos about epilepsy don't have the views that mindless music videos do.There are people walking around everyday having seizures and they don't know it because it's not a grand mal. Shame.

I have had partial seizures since I was 3 years old, last time I remember having one I was 14 years old, now it's been 8 years since then. My seizure had me tired, and I was lost in the moment and my body just fell down and I remember drooling to my right side on a hard stone floor. I had to sleep for 2 hours on a couch, and I had not been able to speak for 2 more hours after that. Thank God for my mom that day. My meds ever since then were put back to normal, and no seizure lately now.
