What kind of seizure causes head drooping?

[deutschelectronic]

I sometimes get seizures where all of a sudden I get a sensation of being high or drunk, and feel as if I may fall or as though my body could float away. All of a sudden my head and jaw drop down. My muscles feel like jello and I slump, but not all the way. My eyes will either become wide open or start shutting slowly, but everything else in my body feels not really stiff, but unmovable. I want to yell for help, but I can't. I am fully conscious during the episodes, although there have been incidences where I lost consciousness afterwards. The weird thing is that one hand will twitch or fumble, and sometimes can get up and walk, but hunched over. The whole thing feels like being on mushrooms and general anesthesia at the same time, yet I am wide awake the whole time. Could this be atonic or some weird partial seizure? I have many partial seizures with distinct characteristics, but these ones confuse me.

They sound like atonic seizures -- the particular variant called "head-drop" seizures.

We just had a new member post about them:

Sounds like a tonic seizure you are getting. With my seizures, my body turns to jello as well, but there is no way I can walk, I have been told my eyes stay open but they roll, this would probably explain the headaches after. The twitch or fumble thing I apparently do, but all of a sudden my whole body will become ridged and it kind of arches. This is some of what happens to me and it sounds similar in ways so I think you might have atonic, but talk to the nureo as well.
