I believe I have partial seizures, but I don't get an "aura" or a tingly feeling. What happens is I fall and it happens very fast - I have no time to react. I am conscious and am watching myself fall and am able to immediately to pick myself up again. I have been researching partial seizures, but none of them discuss falling or a full-body jerking to a fall. This is what happens. What is important is that I don't have a sensation beforehand; the attack happens when it happens. I don't get a sensation that tells me that a seizure is about to occur.

Are falling seizures partial seizures?
 
I can say I have complex partial seizures,tonic-clonic sz's.In a lot of my sz's I'm conscious and I'm not sure what kind of sz I had.
 
Hi Heylena, i have semi falling seizures, i don't fall fully to the ground because my legs don't give out but as soon as i start walking , then at sudden moments i get abrupt full body jerk and i almost fall. But like i said, my legs don't fully give out, so i don't fall. But i come close to falling.

But when i get the full body jerks, i like almost faint too. and then my brain feels super weak and like i'm gonna collapse.

You said "I have no time to react"
