Do you have other videos... this was exactly what I go through at least a hundred times a day... I'm med resistant...I show this video to my care givers each time a new care giver is assigned to me

I don’t see anything your normal Stop lying

It is a better idea to record a person having a seizure or an animal having a seizure. Because then you can take that video on your phone and show the Doctors or paramedics what is going on. Instead of trying to remember what has happened. And them asking you questions like how long was the seizure and what was the symptoms of the person or animal was having the seizure. So if a person or animal is having a seizure record it or have another person record it so you have a record of it to show Doctors and nurses or paramedics incase you forget a symptom or the duration of the seizure.

I have them a lot

Thank you for mentioning your triggers. I am dealing with my son who is seven and having these types of seizures. They seem to last quite a long time compared to yours but the other symptoms are the same. Thank you for this demonstration ❤

Welcome back

Totally really!

That's real!

I didn't see anything

are you also forgetting how to say a word?

This is me for real.

Thank You for posting this. It helps me understand me better

Are you aware when these happen or are you momentarily unconscious?

I did not know the absence seizures come and go so frequently. I am researching because l think my friend at work is having the absence seizures. Can a person have them and not know? Thank you do much for your videos ❤

my friend seems to have it and she looks like you i thought that was just some quirks. Now i see it differently

I had a seizure and it was so bad I was rushed to the hospital and they had a huge needle and my sister said that she heard me making noises and she realized I was having a seizure I was 2 when it happened.

do you know that it's happening? I mean during the absence not after it?

I know this was posted 7 yrs ago but I've been watching a few of these types of videos lately. I have been diagnosed with seizures within the last 10 yrs. I've so far had a few different types, including grand mal. But this, this might be my issue as of late. I'm older, so I've always thought it was just that, age. Thank you for posting this.

Would you know in those few seconds that you’re freezing? Do you have awareness of your surroundings or no?

How do u know when absience seizure occurs an that its not just daydreaming? Do u feal some pain or disconfort?

So recognizable..thank you for showing..you're very brave by showing this

I'm seeing this in my 3 month old granddaughter. She will be crying for something, then it's like a button is pushed and she is not moving, no facial expressions, and she is staring wide eyed. I told my friend who was there that she was asleep with her eyes wide open. Then slowly she closed her eyes and she was asleep. I told my daughter when she came home that I thought she was having a seizure and my daughter doesn't believe me even though she and her husband have seen this themselves. They call it "zoning out". Has anyone ever heard of a such a thing in a 3 month old?

What is going on in your thoughts when these happen? How do you differentiate from say daydreaming as opposed to having a seizure? Happy for anyone who suffers to answer x

I had seizures at age 35 this happen when i overdosed caffeine, i drink energy drinks everyday 😢

You are pretty

You take a lot of them wow

You take a lot of them wow

Are you still doing okay ?

I feel for this girl. She looks like a sweetheart

...

What do these seizures feel like?? Do you lose comciousness??

i do the same but i will stop talking after, assuming i finished, and say "ya", then everyone will ask "what, say again?"

I’ve had tonic-clonic seizures for the past 20 years. But I think you help me figure out that this is what I’ve been experiencing the last 2 or so years. They really suck. Thank you and hope everything is going well!!

Nothing happened

When i have my absences, i forget what i am talking about, or what the other person is saying to me, thankfully when i recover, my first words are "What was i saying?" So that's kind of a help to me. I hope your meds have been controling your epilepsy and keeping it at bay.

Omg, this make me 😢. I had a benign brain tumor removed and it gave me a little side effects like this. I feel your pain ❤️. keep strong

What kind of medicine could be prescribed on this kind of epilepsy staring in space .. my daughter suffers the same

I’m worried about my daughter. This video shows how subtle it can be, looks like she’s just pausing for a moment to think of what to say or like she’s distracted. My daughter will be 12 this year and so far has not had any motor skill functions or learning disabilities that i can tell but she is having anxiety and some depression now due to social anxiety and bullying in the past. She was born with partial agenisis of the corpus callosum due to a lipoma growth right above and in center of it. She has some focal areas of cortical dysplasia and dilated posterior lateral horns. She says she sometimes “zoned out” i asked if she sees or feels anything weird but she says no. She’s been under the care of a neurologist since she was born due to the brain findings on ultrasound while i was pregnant but they never found any symptoms in her so eventually a neurosurgeon gave us the ok to no longer monitor her by a neurologist every year or continue annual or every few year MRIs. But now she’s more quiet, reserved and the last few years when we are talking will ask me when and how we started this conversation. I don’t know if I’m making this up in my head and she’s fine or something like this could be happening. If it’s always been normal to her how would she know it’s not? The neurologist never found anything wrong despite her unique brain structure.

Thank you so much! I have absent epilepsy as part of sever adhd and I had no idea that's a seizure too! I thought it was just when I stare off💀

I understand.

I'm only realizing at 28 that I've been having various types of seizures my entire life 😮

Thank you so much for making this video and actually being able to capture your absence seizures on camera. These are exactly like the ones I have, and I have been needing a video to show friends and family what to look for. Again thank you so much.

What is it called when you go limp and unresponsive but also have eyes wide open starting into space What kind of seizure

Hmmmm....this is what i do when im thinking of situations. Like, as if i could see it in my head. Does that count?

I had these as a child, I would be caring something and come too and it would be dropped or spilled. I thought I was crazy

I think a child I tutor has this. Seeing this seems exactly like what I experience with this child almost every day. Child's neurologist ruled out absence seizures, but I swear to you I see this regularly, especially when child is anxious, tired or didn't sleep well.
