Dealing with Seizures and Stress: My Experience

I started having seizures, which doctors believe are stress related, about a year ago. They started out at about once every few days, then every day, then disappeared for a while. Now I'm up to every hour. I've also been experiencing severe lightheadedness constantly. I often lose my vision and hearing and become extremely dizzy. This happens about every 10 minutes. I've also started to feel stinging in my chest, persistent headaches, nausea, and full body soreness. It's been worsening for about a month now.

I don’t have experience with all these symptoms specifically but am curious since it’s related to stress if you have tried therapy and antidepressants to see if those might help ease symptoms? I know they’ve helped mine which doctors attribute to being caused from stress as well. Hope you are feeling better soon that sounds uncomfortable!

ive been in therapy for years and have been taking antidepressants and antipsychotics for just as long. the doctors also never ran any tests on my seizures, they met with me once about it and have dismissed it since then, so im not even sure that's it anymore.
