Epilepsy Isn’t Always What You Think

While dramatic convulsions are the most recognised form of epilepsy, they represent only a fraction of what people with epilepsy experience.

Here’s what you may not know:

- Absence seizures can often look like daydreaming, causing children to be misunderstood in the classroom.

- Focal seizures can manifest as strange smells, feelings of déjà vu, or sudden fear, but the person remains fully aware.

- Emotional or cognitive disruptions: Some may experience seizures that affect their thoughts or emotions without any visible signs.

Epilepsy is a complex condition, and its effects can be invisible. This , let’s increase our understanding of the full range of seizures and how they impact daily life.

Experiencing unusual symptoms or seizures? Schedule a consultation with our neurologist by calling 012 798 7000 or emailing info@phelangbonolo.co.za for more information.
