My seizures occur due to an accident I had when I was 2 years old. A neighbor was babysitting me while my parents worked, and a boy pushed me off the porch. Back in the 80's, there wasn't that much good input on seizures. I called them stomach aches to my mother, even though you feel uneasy and it's not the stomach that's hurting, it's your whole body that's feeling uneasy. As a female, they changed as I aged. As a teenager, a dark shadow figure would appear when the uneasy feeling started. When I got into early 20's, the medication for seizures had greatly changed and the hallucinations were gone during seizures. Yes. The seizure is exhausting. I didn't fall out or pass out. I would still be awake, but feeling extremely tired. The exhausted feeling is when you have to stop and take a nap. Leave work or school to take a nap. Your body can't function normally after you're tired from a seizure. Dizziness would go away later in the day. Depends on how many you have a day. Good luck.
