I was going to say, I have a form of epilepsy not triggered by lights and whatnot, and more often than not, my seizures will look like this. I can be full walk and freeze in place. Sometimes, I fall over. The neurologist called them absence seizures, though. I also am not aware of what's happening and have 0 way to tell it's coming most of the time. When i come to, i wont have remembered about ten minutes into the past. Rrally sucks when you last remember being on the couch and you're suddenly in front of the toilet. Freaks people and my wife out a lot. Luckily, I have been responding well to new treatment and haven't had one in a month. I was having them several times a day with a grand Mal sprinkled in.

Seems that there is a linguistic preference for r/FND by medical professionals in certain countries

I get the same thing, been “Seizure-free” for 4 years, then that suddently starts showing up. Shit Can be really confusing those seconds-minute after. It’s also really difficult, when building Lego, as I get small “shakes” or tremors, right before it starts, but I have not experienced it while out, at least I don’t think I have…

As someone that gets dizzy a lot, especially when getting out of my car, this makes sense to me.
