I wished I could have someone there after a T/C but knowing that other people will be more stressed or upset than I am as well as the fact that I can't communicate & they will have no clue what I want to say makes me realize that being alone is actually the best situation I can be in.

Also realizing that my emotions are part of the post-ictal part of the seizure so in a way they're not my real emotions helps.

I don't mind being alone. Of course there's usually the time lag until I realize that I've actually had a seizure. Then it helps if I can call a friend or family member just to let someone know and vent a bit. If I'm feeling basically functional, I just take it easy -- maybe put some music on and lie down.

I know this is going to seam weird, but have you thought about getting a seizure alert dog?
The dog will be with you 24/7, 365 days a year. There are many things that these dogs can do for there owner. And you can talk to you new friend I know it's not like talking to a person but they will never judge you. They will just love you.
Good luck
