For me, there is a difference between just zoning out and having seizure activity. After they happen, I am really tired and need to lay down or nap. What happens to me physically during them I don't know other than I'll drop what I have in my hands or I stop doing what I am doing. I don't know "where" I go during that time. A few times, my eyes seem sensitive to light and I'm a little confused afterward, even in to the next day.

Zoning out, to me, is just sitting there staring but being fully aware of my surroundings and what is going on and I'm even aware of what I am thinking. A noise or movement or something can always bring me out of the zone. During the weird seizure like things, I'm not fully aware. They are brief moments, lasting a several seconds or so. Sometimes, it only happens once. Other times, it's several times in a day. All in all, I have only had 3 episodes of this with my most recent one happening toward the end of May. With that one, my eye felt like the pupil was so dilated but wouldn't go back to normal size and the light really irritated it. It happened several times during that day and by the next day I was tired and a little confused and/or things that were too complex were confusing me. It's hard to describe but I have never experienced the fatigue and confusion after zoning out.

Then it certainly sounds like there is much more happening for you. I am sorry if it seems like I have made light of this, get it checked out.

Me too Trish. Seizures are not like normal zoning out. I hope what I said didn't lead peeps to believe that.

Love you...

I thought what you guys posted was funny! So no harm done. I just was commenting on what I experience to help Kelly out a little. I should have commented on the humorous stuff, like I normally would. Sorry and yeah, I love you guys too.

Wow, Trish you explained exactly what happens to me occasionally, usually during dinner for some reason. My DH will say, "Get your hand out of your plate," and all of a sudden I am awake with my fingers full of spaghetti sauce Or I just fall asleep...I wonder if it is some kind of seizure...oh well...

Anyway, Kitty, you should get it checked out...just wait til the budget crisis is passed so you make sure Medicare will still be paid for
