Hi there,
I'm new to the forum. I'm just looking to share experiences, dieting and encouragement. I, myself suffered seizures as a child; they were not just one type. I had absent, simple and other seizures that really had no name, as the doctors couldn't really figure out exactly what was going on. I also had nocturnal seizures. I suffered sx such as derealization, depersonalization, AIWS and horrendous migraine headaches!
One of my worst seizures is when I was 16 years old. I had a seizure that went on for an hour at least, and after it passed . . . the next few days were filled with anxiety and fear! One side of my my head and body seized as the other side was calm. It was a horrific experience! It's as if the left side of my brain shutdown and violently shook and jerked, and the right side was calm. I thought I was dieing!
That was 21 years ago, as I'm 37 years old now. I still get absent and nocturnal seizures; I also get bouts of derealization and foggy brain. I was on medication but I stopped it back in 2012. I can't say that my diet is the best either . . . but I'm currently working on putting a good diet in place for myself.
That's a summary of my story, and I don't know if anyone can relate?
I'm looking forward to becoming part of the community here on this forum!
TY for having me.
