Alright, so I'm frustrated because I'm having a very strange but consistent series of events, and I'm wondering if it's just a weird quirk, or if this is seizure related.
Some background: I'm a bit of a writer, and am a regular in the Creative Writing subforum, and I think in pictures and moving images rather than auditory words. I'm also more prone to Simple Partials, though I have Complex Partials as well, and very rarely I'll have a T/C seizure.
Alright... so here's what has been happening:
I've been having a lot of great writing ideas for stories, poems, and such. However, every time I try to write them down so I'll remember them, I get interrupted. Every single time, and in a specific order.
> I have an idea. (in the form of a mental image.)
> I take said idea, and transfer it into words in my head.
> I go to write those words down.
> Mind goes blank for a few seconds.
> I have four to five hiccups, each about seven to ten seconds apart.
> After the hiccups are done, I'm back to normal.
> From the initial blank-out, until the hiccups are done, I can't type/write/scribble anything down at all, it's like my brain says "No. You're not doing that." and I just... can't. :?
It's weird though, because I can write/type about anything else. I can sit here and write about how I can't write about my ideas, but I can't write about what those ideas are, or it starts all over again. It's weird though, because this doesn't seem to be random, it's consistent and it happens every time, but only about those ideas, not about anything else.
I've had a long and kind of stressful weekend, and I'm under more stress than usual anyway at the moment just due to life situations, but other than this I've been doing well the past week or so... No real seizure activity at all except for a few partials this past week, so things have been going pretty well. Except for this... quirk? I don't even know what to call it. It's never happened before though, that much I do know. I just want it to go away...
Has anyone else had anything like this happen, or has my brain just decided it wants to toy with and frustrate me?
