Experiencing Pseudoseizures: Seeking Similar Experiences

I have found out in 2019 that I had psuedo seizures but this year my neurologist said they are now called non epileptic attacks. Anyway I realized I have had them since my hs days in 2010 but my family and I never knew what they were because we thought the episodes looked like me having anxiety attacks. They have been worse since 2020 to where I have 3 or 4 in a week, almost 20 to 30 in a month. Finally got on ssi this year❤

Yes I also have Pseudoseizures but I have what is called absence seizures and tonic clonic seizures. I've just been put on medical marijuana for them. Haven't had a seizures in over a month.

I have those too but I didn't know they were stress related

Mine are absence seizures, but yes, they were psychogenic and I don’t really struggle with them anymore as I’m no longer in the situation that caused the trauma that induced them

I exeprience the same thing, I was diagnosed with Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures (PNES) and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) a few months ago. My seizures root cause is trauma, however I can experience them for many reasons like sickness, lack of sleep, stress, PTSD triggers, and more. I can have ones which mimic tonic-clonic/grand mal seizures where I'm semiconscious or unconscious, violently shaking, and my breathing gets impaired. I can have ones where I look like I'm zoning out (absence seizures) and ones inbetween. I recommend a workbook you can use with a therapist/counselor called "taking control of your seizures". I went from having 3+ seizures a day to having them very rarely. I wish you the best on your journey to recovery!
