Non Epileptic Attack Disorder (Dissociative Seizures)

bluefox · August 2022

Hello all,

Who else has NEAD or Dissociative Seizures.

What is your experience of this diagnosis?

Tori_Scope · August 2022

This isn't something I've experienced myself @sierrafox. Is it something you experience?

bluefox · August 2022

It is.

The attacks are really strange. From blank staring spells to seizures with hyperventilation. To brief seizures and loss of awareness/consciousness.

But it’s also other symptoms with FND like tics and trouble with sensations.

Mine lasted really long, once 6 hours. But once the fear passed when I was told what they are the lessened.

Mine tend to be short in duration, maybe 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
