Have you ever had a seizure in public?
I have had multiple in public, pretty sure I had at least a few at a park I used to walk around alone in college. I know I had one in lecture and I didn’t find out for two weeks until I heard about it through the grapevine.
Edit: my first known one was at an airport. my mom noticed and told me that I just displayed weird behavior and I didn’t believe her until I looked down and saw that I dropped my sandwich in my lap. I also had one at a karaoke bar sitting on a high top stool when suddenly gravity overtook my body, and I fell to the ground, and my friends had to drag me outside. That was the only one I was aware for, and I was trapped in a state of awareness, but locked in and unable to move for hours. Luckily, my friends took care of me and I’ve always had someone around me that has made sure I’m okay for the most part. I probably had more in public that I don’t remember or even know of.
Recently, I’ve been having a lot of negative emotions, shame, and embarrassment thinking about me having seizures in class and in public. even though these happened years ago, I still feel shame and guilt now.
I caught one of my seizures on camera when I was filming one time and when I watch it, it makes me so uncomfortable. it gives me uncanny valley vibes. I look like I’m possessed. I literally don’t feel like I’m even human in that video. yet recently I can’t get it to stop replaying in my head
I just wanted to know if any of you have had public seizures? How do you mentally stay strong after that?
