I think I had a seizure for the first time. No adult is listening to me.
This is so...agh. I'm a teenager, in high-school. This happened today. I need input from...someone. Anyone else. No other adult will listen. I'm not 100% sure if this is the right sub to post this...I don't post here ever. But it's worth a shot?
I'm home now, but during third period at school I'd begun feeling weird. Nothing new, I always feel off, especially with my sudden health drop [explained in another post] but this was...wrong. So I went down to the nurses office so I can sit in the cot room.
In the cot room, I was sitting on the floor beside the cot. I was laying my head and arms on the cot. I began to feel like- weird? Shaky? I perked before trying to get up, but my body was shaking and I crumpled onto my side. I stilled for a moment before my like, head and shoulders were shaking/jerking. My eyes were rolling back. I couldn't move or talk or anything, but I was aware. Albeit it's fuzzy now. It lasted for roughly around a minute before I went still again. I couldn't move for a moment afterwards.
When I could, I got up - dizzy, confused, and frightened - and went to talk to the nurses. We have three. I explained what happened to the two that were there. They were unsure what it was. I suggested maybe a seizure. One said shit like "Seizures last longer than that" [As far as I know they can be from a few seconds to a couple of minutes. I didn't even tell her how long it lasted] "There would've been stuff happening before" [????] "You wouldn't be able to get up right after" Unsure of that. But I HADN'T been able to get up right after. My mother had also not believed me when I told her what happened, claiming all seizures were violent and resulted in things like throwing up and not being able to walk for hours afterward, due to her experience. Which...isn't true, as far as I know?
I just...I don't know. I feel fucking dramatic and crazy because that's how every adult is treating me, but I guess I need to hear from people who do have seizures. If this was one. I've done research of course and things seem to align pretty well, but hearing other voices will probably help...?
Thank you for reading. Rhasdghhdsaghda-
Edit: Long story. Shit ended up happening. Went to the ER with the help of my sister and her boyfriend [fucking godsends, I swear. Love them] and we got no real answers, but a seizure is still a possibility. So atleast that proves my mother wrong.
