Does Anyone Also See Things During An Aura?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I see a tall black figure of a man before an aura occurs and I get scared and paranoid. I see black or colorful spirals or circles, even random lines or flashing lights. It is very common for people to have this type of visual auras vs auditory or sensible auras?

i get a black spot in the corner of my eye (mostly in the shower). it like a face of a kid. sometimes i turn around and nothing is there. then the black spot goes again.

Auras vary from person to person , depending on the type of seizure,even associacted with headaches , as a person enters an altered state their body percives things differntly, I usally think my voice has dissappered and my vision becomes blurred and spotted

I don't know about how common, but I've experienced that before.

I haven't ever seen anything strange pre-seizure, but I have experienced auras.
