Extremes of Emotion


Hi Guys

Please tell me what you think of this, I do hope you will give me your feedback, I'd so love to hear from you all!!

It's for my book as much as how I'm feeling at the moment. I'm having clusters of Complex Partials at the moment, I seem to go days and even weeks trouble free, then, like the last few days, I am an emotional wreck!! I burst into tears and sob at the slightest thing, sad or happy things, memories, songs, things that make me smile, or things that make me blue, and I couldn't really explain exactly why I'm crying.

Wow, thank God for waterproof mascarra!! I know all my problems are in the emotion dept of my brain, but I just wanted to hear from anyone else that felt this way sometimes, please please write and tell me, plus the fact I am feeling really miserable at the moment, the job situation here in the UK gets worse, and there seems no sign of employment for me in the near future.

I just wondered if anone else with temporal lobe epilepsy, or especially anyone else who's had surgery for it,has or has had extremes of emotion, and also, I know it is common to have almost ultra religious feelings of seeing the world in a really special way, I know what I mean by that, I wonder if any of you get where I'm coming from there?I am not religious in any shape or form, but I sort of feel at one with nature, with everything, and when I look back at the incredible list of famous people throughout history, who have lived with epilepsy, it does not surprise me, that it is a condition that usually affects only intelligent and sensitive people.

I hope you are all ok, I'd love to hear from you all, cheer me up a bit as I stand here ironing my darling firefighter's uniform.

Lotsalove all and keep smiling in 2011!!

Lainey

Lainey,

You are not alone! I know after I have had a cluster of seizures, I can spend the whole day crying. Not good for much else, but the tears just roll. Nothing worse than getting caught in a cluster situation

Hope you feel better soon, and I can't wait for your book to come out!!
