Could someone explain this please :(?
 

First Hi,

my name is Rhiannon. I have bi-lateral TL E. reflex/abdominal E, photosenstive E. I had been having real problems with break through seizures. Then all of a sudden the day time seizures seemed to slow down, and at night time when I am completely and totally sleeping, my husband says that I start full on conversations, I cry, laugh, am very animated, use terribly inapprpriate language and act out the things I am obviously dreaming about. I have spent all night using the bedoom as a kitchen and cooking a roast for 12 people; setting the table, making gravy, making icecream cake.

I do want to get it sorted out, but I am at present having problems with agoraphobia and can't leave the house. I am taking meds for that anxiety and panic disorder as well...but this other night time behavior has only been very recent, like weeks...can anyone explain to me what is happening please?

Wow, you most certainly have a lot of stuff going on don't you.

For whatever reason, your innermost thoughts, desires, etc, are manifesting themseves during your sleep cycle.

What does your doctor say about this??

Perhaps the meds that you are on, are contributing to what's happening during the night?

I know that more knowledgable people will hop on board and welcome you and direct you to the proper forums.

I just wanted to extend my hand in welcome and say:

Hi. Welcome to Neurotalks.

Melody

Welcome to the NT

Hi, RM....
 

It doesn't seem that your problem would be so bad if it only happened once in a long while. But if its happening all that frequently, it has to be robbing you of real sleep. I'd suspect that some unresolved feeling you have is causing it. I do remember, though, that when my oldest daughter was four she liked to sneak into our bed at night, and she and her mother would actually have complete, drawn-out conversations while they were both asleep. It amazed me, and didn't seem possible, but no harm ever came from it.

I hope you find whatever it is that's disturbing you subconsciously, and robbing you of sleep. Good luck and best wishes! :)

Hello RhiannonsMoon and welcome to Neurotalk.

I wish I had some magic answers for you but I don't. I'm no expert but I was wondering if these events may not be some sort of Petit Mal Seizure?

You don't menton what, if any, medical intervention you've been having, so I thought I'd start with giing you the link to our Epilepsy Forum and hope that some of the members there will be able to offer you a little more than I can.

Here's that link: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum11.html

Hi Rhiannon and welcome to NeuroTalk! You certainly do have a lot going on....it looks like the others have provided you with a number of links that should be helpful.

I'd definitely see the doctor and tell him/her exactly what's going on. Hopefully they can do something to help you.

In the meantime you'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Glad you joined this site. :hug:

Hello Rhiannan and Welcome to NeuroTalk. Please take a look around and make yourself at home. Glad you found us.

Hi, Riannon! :Wave-Hello: Welcome to NeuroTalk!

What a lovely name! I hope you'll find some answers soon. :)

Thank You Melody,

I appreciate your welcome. My husband says I also seize when I am sleeping. The GP believes I am just having TL seizures at night, and says that there is something going on with interuption to the sleep pattern either somnambulism, or confusional arousal; which he beleives I could not be having. he beleives I am too old and that only children have those issues.
I am now myoclonic during the day...

I am confused though. After being told of the sleepwalking and confusional arousal; then the myoclonic siezures starting...I wonder if I am having a 2nd childhood...lol ...I am a patient person so I will see if I can get information from here to take to my GP, and hopefully he will suggest this site to his other patients

Thank You again Melody, your time is appereciated
