I had a seizure period around two years ago that evolved into a hospital visit. I think it may have turned into a psychotic seizure at one point.
And during that period, it is as though ...ok let's say the brain is a big zipper that, during a seizure, either zips, or unzips, and I'm saying that two years ago it zipped up, and along with it, it zipped up fragments of "things" and got them 'stuck' IN the zipper until a seizure of the same type (now) releases these fragments of things into reality.

It has been very strange and disturbing.
 
As far as I know that hasn't happened for me. It sounds like a kind of PTSD, where if you push the wrong button it's like hitting "replay" on an unpleasant video.
