One night, I fell out of bed and became unable to move. Paramedics carried me onto a stretcher and into the ambulance. After examinations at the hospital, it turned out that I had fallen while asleep, and the psychological shock was so strong that it caused my limbs to become immobile. I stayed in the hospital for a day and gradually returned to normal...14Please respect copyright.PENANAQLGwr0gqX7

At that time, I was having seizures quite frequently, about once every week or two. I would suddenly experience weakness on one side of my body or cramps, causing me to fall to the ground. Even when going out, I needed someone to accompany me.

I was enrolled in an associate degree program, and one day, I had planned to meet a classmate for a presentation. My legs felt a bit tingly, and walking was difficult. I thought I might have a seizure soon. My classmate saw how distressed I was and became so worried that she started to cry. Fortunately, I felt better quickly and did not go to the hospital.

Some patients have warning signs before a seizure, and these vary from person to person, but they can usually recognize their own signs or premonitions.

The warning signs can include tingling in the limbs, feelings like ants crawling, numbness, loss of sensation, loss of balance, seeing light rings, black dots, or colorful spots, smelling strange odors, hearing buzzing, chirping, odd sounds, or mechanical noises, and tasting something on the tongue even without eating. Emotional signs include panic, anxiety, unease, fear, hallucinations, or feeling as if they have gone to another place, along with dizziness or stomach pain.

Triggers for seizures include forgetting to take medication, lack of sleep, excessive fatigue, colds, fever, stomach pains, diarrhea, vomiting, alcohol, bright lights, screen glare, flashing lights (like fireworks or a shimmering sea), intense bright flashes, loud sounds, excessive sadness, or extreme excitement.

When dealing with a patient having a seizure, it is crucial to provide first aid. First, never put hard objects like shoes, spoons, or hands into the patient's mouth, thinking it will help; this is very dangerous and can cause the patient to choke or have difficulty breathing.

Do not forcibly stop a patient's convulsions, as this can cause more injury. Wait for the convulsions to subside.

Never give water to the patient, as they may vomit it or feel nauseous, nor should you administer their usual medications, except for emergency medication. Immediate medications are often ineffective, and the dosage is very important; too little or too much can worsen the seizure.

If the patient is in a high or dangerous place, guide them away. Sometimes, it is best to avoid crowds to ensure the patient has enough air to breathe.

Lay the patient flat and wait for the seizure to stop. Loosen their neck clothing and check for excessive saliva or vomit blocking their mouth. Stay with the patient until they return to normal.

Typically, the patient will recover within a few minutes. After they rest, inform them of what happened and document the situation, notifying their family. If the seizure lasts more than fifteen minutes, or if the patient falls and is injured, becomes disoriented, or falls into a coma, take them to the hospital immediately.
