I have a cat ESA and cuddling her helps shorten the episodes. A dog could probably sense them starting which would be good

I get non epileptic seizures (we think) from functional neurological disorder and i get a similar aura type effect right when they start. Can’t find my words, suddenly really nauseous, dizziness, deja vu, brain fog, and feeling like I’m at the drop on a roller coaster. After them I get one too, I get extremely tired and can’t stay awake, brain foggy again, and physically exhausted like I’ve run a mile
