Hi There,

Was wondering if anyone else experiences intense feelings of dissociation following their seizures? I often describe the feeling as existing in two different worlds, not really here, but not really there...like I'm looking down on myself and its like my brain is recharging (similar to rebooting a computer). Does this happen to anyone else? What have your doctors said about this, if so.

lol - When this happens, I often feel like I'm in a very zen, higher conscious state, however, my partner tells me after and during that I appear quite drunk.
 
I sort of feel like this when I'm having a semi partial seizure. I know I've had these types of seizures.

Usually after I come out of a complex partial I have no clue that I've had it. I normally don't really have any sort of feelings after those other than a headache.
