I’ve heard that some people don’t remember what happens during their seizures, and they can’t recall anything. But I can to a point. Even how they begin.

From what I’m reading and the conversations I’ve had with medical professionals about seizure activity there are multiple types of seizures. I personally have had multiple types of seizures since the age of one starting with the gran mal seizures then changing to complex partial seizures that had a variety of activity taking effect for quite some time and now I am having the absence type seizures. Because there has been surgery procedures taken place they have given me the ability to have a lower type of seizure pattern.

The only time I had seizures that I still cannot recall to this day are when I was much younger when they began. I was 6 when they started and I was told the first time I seized I was in the hospital for 2 weeks because they were out of control. After that I can remember bits and pieces of them.

Yes, there are multiple seizures. I have had several different types over the last years. I have a list of them for a book I am writing.

I am a person who does not remember having a seizure or what happened during the seizure.
