Epilepsy is different for everyone. I had my first seizure when I was 8 years old. I had no memory of what happened after it, but a couple days later I would remember what I was doing before then. It’s really good to bring someone with you who has witnessed your seizures to your neurologist appointments 👍🏻

I had my first seizure in 2004. It wasn't a grand mal, but it progressed to the grand-mals after a few years.

I don't remember anything when I have grand-mals but when I have small ones I remember everything. Like all seizures I've had, it sucks.

Had a bunch as a baby but my mom didn’t know what it was at the time. Then, had a stroke in 2018, and was finally diagnosed with nocturnal Epilepsy and put on medication.

I was 16, just got done getting dressed for school (thank God), my mom thought I was having a heart attack because I always get chest pains. My grand mals, I completely lock up and flex all my muscles. I came in and out of consciousness I remember my floor and seeing the paramedics, being cold getting carried to the ambulance and complaining when they pricked my finger taking my blood sugar, but none of my tests in the hospital. Just my family visiting

The day I was born I was already having seizures, took my parents about 2 maybe 3 years to get someone to listen to them.
