since i had my daughter, ive been diagnosed with PTSD and severve anxiety and clinical depression.. although i have found the right treatment for me so that i can live day to day without the effects of these,,ive had around 10 differnt periods in 4years.. they range in severity and lenght.. ive had ecg and epilepsy tests, but they show that the seizures are brought on by stress overload (usually when i push myself to far, and i crash from the stess.) the only way to fix these is sleep and food.... foes anyone else out there suffer from this??????

" hi,,


i have suffered these for around four years now,, they only happen in really stressfull times where my body just cant take any more stress,, i can now see the signs comming on, they included loss of vision/blurrd vision/dizziness/shaking/fainting/rushes inside body, kind of like hypervelntilating feeling(panick attack feelings)

i didnt realise that these are so uncommon,, they arte the same as an epeleptic fit, but did not show up on the ecg but ecg showd it was comming from other part of brain,, i had every test i could, and thats all i found out about it.. ive never been given medication for this, and ithe only way i have found that stops these seizures comming on is to smoke pot OR serepax (but serapax is on ly a temp thing and they usually ocme back when course is finished.. ive gone months and months wihtout pot to see if this was the cause,, and they still happend, but worse as i had nothing to bring me down/calm me down....

so that all i know, and im starting to worry ause no one else out there can relate to this propblem....

kcya, and thatks for asking "
