That would be nice if I was able to tell if I seizured. My family and friends are the ones who alert me of my seizures.. if that didn’t happen I would have no clue when I have them.

I don’t like telling my family. Dad gets worried, and my brother just says get some rest ( and he logs it so he can keep track of how many i have in a week. So I prefer not telling them. I tell one friend who’s also one of my emergency contacts. And she doesn’t mind me going through the crying, anger, nauseous or “loopy “ stages. Plus she’s always very calm and doesn’t freak out about it, even when I tell her where or what I’ve hurt, banged or bruised. She also logs it, but never brings it up unless I let her know that I’ve gone to the hospital. That way she can tell the doctor what happened
