They may have a first aid course they go through yearly. However it's hard to remember that information, especially when it's rarely used, and especially under stress. I wonder if your teacher had been informed that your friend gets seizures? If they had, I would be much more annoyed with them not keeping that information fresh in their minds.

My cousin had a seizure like this, but we don't know if she's epileptic or not. I was alone with her when it happened. It was one of the most terrifying things I've ever witnessed. Luckily I've had First Aid training so I could help her out while waiting for help. She's okay now, thankfully. And hopefully we'll find out what really happened, if it was an epileptic seizure or not.

These kinds of videos are great to have here on KZbin. :) I used to work with a girl who has epilepsy (I didn't know at the time.), and one day she suddenly fell over right in front of me, and all I could really think to do was to catch her, so she wouldn't slam in to anything. It's a scary ass situation, when you have no idea what's going on. For all I knew she could be dying, but thankfully another person knew about her epilepsy, so no ambulance was called or anything.

my mom had a seizure last week friday, it was the 1st time I've seen it, but i knew she started getting them. this was the 4th one she had and the worst we took her to the hospital for cat scans and mri scans (good news shes okay) but her seizure went on for quite some time 30 - 45min. after getting the physical seizure where her eyes rolled back and muscle spasms, she started acting very strange, almost child-like. not knowing anyone around her but knows familiar faces,she came back after 15min

This is really good and accurate, with the exception of "zed" waking up after the seizure. I have seen footage of myself having a seizure and coming round from the fit follows a lot of shock. Others i have seen, people are in so much shock they may wake up and begin screaming, or similar. Other than that this is great!

First seizure I had, I woke up petrified. I thought there was a group of people outside my apartment that wanted to beat me up. My husband took me to the hospital cuz I got a concussion and I FREAKED out cuz I thought the imaginary mob was gonna kill us. The last seizure I had, it took me 2 hours to come back to normal. I guess I had the mind set of a child. This shit is fuckin scary.

I was diagnosed epileptic a while ago, and my MRI was clean because I didn't have any tumours, but on the EEG I had abnormal waves. That test is the one where they conect stuff to your head, put some flashing lights in front you and ask you to breath fast. You should really go to the doctor again, whether or not you have epilepsy, it's better to get all the tests possible, and if you were misdiagnosed you should follow the instrucitons to quitting the medicine.

You need to check to see if they are breathing for no more then 10 seconds and check for a pulse. If they aren't breathing, they may have gone into cardiac arrest (their heart stops beating.) In this case you need to CALL for medical assistance and give CPR until you see signs of breathing/life, until your tired or the medics arrive. Once they start breathing but are unconcious, keep their airway open.

My partner has epilepsy thankfully he’s on medication to control it so hardly ever has seizures. In nearly 2 years of living near him he’s only had one mild seizure which was during a gym class we were both in. He felt it coming on so went out of the class I assumed he’d gone toilet so stayed in the class. After about half hour someone called me out of the class to tell me he’d had a mild seizure. He was ok just bit shook up so I took him home and stayed with him a bit. Thankfully it seems it was a one off seizure as it hasn’t happened since, it put my mind at rest a bit tho now I know more what to expect if I see him have seizure ever.

If they are having violent convulsions don't try to restrain or turn on side until they slow down and it is safe for the first aider to do so. This was not violent convulsions so he could have been turned on his side to allow for drainage and to keep the airway open.

@danielledewitt1 I am with the epilepsy foundation. If it's a tonic clonic or grand mal convulsion, as the seizure is slowing down u turn on the side. If u are not safe, u can't help anything. Ideally can catch the person as they're falling and lower them to their side if possible

I had my first seizure at school a few weeks back. I don't have epilepty it is something they don't know much of. But according to the teacher my friends simply freaked out.

You should have an EEG done, that way they can tell where the seizure originates from and how best to treat it. My daughter has Epilepsy.....once in a while when her meds need adjusted, she'll have a breakthrough seizure...they've been everything from just a small face tic and she can't talk to Grand Mal....most of the time she has an aura and knows it's coming. When we did the EEG they told us that she has spikes everywhere, but the meds usually control it. If you can get a 24 hour EEG.

Awesome to share, but perhaps the Red Cross may add looking for injuries, especially cranial from an unseen collapse? This epileptic fell from stairs to a concrete pavement.
