Does Anyone Experience Hallucinations Or Delusions Before Or After Seziures?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am experiencing hallucinations and delusions before and after generalized tonic clonic seziures. They are terrifying. I'm afraid to tell my Dr. I mean, am I crazy now? What could he do to help? Does this happen to anyone else?

I do that some times and before I was put on medication. I didn’t want to tell my doctors either for a multitude of reasons but now I don’t care what they think. I have been through too much and they can look at me weird and right notes about being unclear of what it is. It is up to you to say or not to say. These doctors -most-have such limited knowledge and understanding of what we go through. Unless you experience epilepsy you don’t get it, period. Doctor or no doctor.

Thank you Marjorie, that's great advice. It is like a nightmare while your awake. Perfect way to describe it. I have an upcoming apt with neuro. I am going to finally tell him. Wish me luck! Lol😊🙏

Yes, I think it may be some kind of aura. It's so terrifying. Is there anything that could help I wonder? I'm almost as afraid of the meds as I am the seziures.

I’m wondering if you’re experiencing some type of Aura
