Seizures I am so nervous
Posted , 3 users are following.
i have tried but cant stop reading about seizures or watching videos. i feel like i am experiencing simple partial seizures. i have random memory and dream flashbacks and out of nowhere these adrenaline rushes and fear that makes my vision go funny.
my questions are below and hoping people can answer these for me.
can anxiety cause the symptoms i mention?
can reading about symptoms bring on these feelings?
it has been happening 6 years now if it was seizures would it have gone worse by now?
had eeg and mri 4 years ago and all came back clear and had neurologist appts since who dont think its seizures.
the epilepsy sites say exactly my symptoms are focal aware seizures though. who do i believe?
thanks and please could i get some advice

I know you said that you can't stop looking up these symptoms, but you can! Come up with a plan to divert yourself. Like when you want to Google these illnesses, do something else instead immediately and every time until you have broke your habit! Make a plan today!

Good morning,
Reading about symptoms will definitely bring the feeling of the symptoms on!! it will also cause extreme anxiety , these are the symptoms you are feeling . At one point in my life, the anxiety I experienced was so bad that my vision was extremely blurred. So bad that I could not drive. my face would go numb also. I had a hard time walking. This is anxiety and you must stop googling these symptoms in order to get better. Are you taking any medication for your anxiety symptoms

Thank you dmw for the kind words. I am currently into my third week of citalopram. Its now progressed into weird random memories of my past or old dreams that are insignificant popping into my head for no apparent reason why is this happening?
It seems like not many people on here have a fear of seizures or have symptoms like mine that is why I am thinking it i seizure related
