Sometimes it's just like nodding off for a second but it's actually about 30 seconds to a minute. Occasionally I'll have a freaky thing where I'm falling down a deep hole or tunnel spinning and then go unconscious. One of my neurologists says I can't have that with a seizure, but we found a research paper where the researcher says it does happen with some people that have temporal lobe epilepsy. Anyway, it's really scary - feels like you're dying.

i had many types and when i had a grand mal (tonic clonic), i always fall but never the thud... next thing i new i was on the floor. heres a video about the 1st seizure... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOsAhwdfob4&amp...

Just be precortus and make sure something new isn't tried

I never felt myself falling. The night before Christmas eve I woke up on the floor, my husband brought me to the hospital. I don't remember how or what happened. Sometimes if I've had one, I have a terrible pain, sometimes my shoulder is out of the socket or my hip will hurt. That's my proof that I've had one. One time I injured my left forearm and my ribs. I was standing next to my clothes hamper and I hit it so hard I crushed it so hard we couldn't get it back to it's original sharp.

Nada, it’s good that you have warning. When notice a seizure coming, you can find a safe spot, before your seizure.

I have Complex Partial Seizures. That means I’m unaware of my seizures. So when I fall, I have no clue, when and how long I was out. It’s when I come to, when I start noticing clues that I had the seizure, like falling.
