< I told him I started to get the depersonalization, and deja vu feeling, and sick to my stomach. He said I sat there for 2 min. and smacked and licked my lips, and then started laughing. I didn't remember any of that. That was so strange!>
Hi Jodie & Ritch,I didnt think when I was first told of this that my consciousness was altered..but then people started telling me that I will jerk my head to the right and not say anything and "tune them out" and not respond to what they're saying to me..I didnt realize either that I was doing that.. I had a grand mal on Nardil once (including the whole Jackonsonian march thing) and I wasnt able to respond to the nurse.
Has anyone told you you do any other stuff or react in a way that surprized you, like you didnt know you were doing that?
<Some people have seizures from certain video games and cartoons. >
I have problems every time I stare at my computer. I start feeling unbalanced, I feel like I'm floating..then the odors, then the ticcing then the panic.Do either of you have problems looking at a computer screen?
<or even smelling something can set off a seizure>
This is probably my biggest dilemma, because it interferes with my day so much..I pick up odors that don't even register on anyone elses radar...I hate that!! I'm like at the mercy of my nose! I can't walk past a food court in a shopping mall without having one of these spells..the popourri smell in stores..the soap my mother uses to wash her hands..for me it's like a sensory hell.
hmm..in my past life..I was probably one of those scent dogs that track prison escapees, LOL!
