first time having a seizure (20f)

i had a seizure for the first time last night. i don’t remember the hour before it (me having a shower and getting ready for bed).

i was in the bathroom and my mum thought she heard me vomiting so she came to check and i started having a seizure and i bit my tongue.

when i came round i try to walk to my bed (against my mums advice) and i bumped into some things on the way as i was still quite out of it.

the first thing i remember is seeing the paramedics stood next to my bed. they took me to a&e where i got given some pain meds and anti nausea meds. i spent the night in a&e and got a head ct and bloods taken, which both showed nothing abnormal and then was discharged.

i was wondering if anyone had suggestions for possible causes or anything i should do? i’ve been referred to the first fit clinic.

also i live in the uk and have a provisional drivers liscense, but i just use it for id when going out. do i need to let the dvla know about any of this?

how much does mitigating circumstances help?

i’ve applied for mitigating circumstances for a few of my summer exams following an a&e admission, and i’ve heard back that it’s been approved. how much is this likely to bring my grade up? like how much would i need to get for it to be pushed up to a 60 for example?

do i have to just hope and wait?

earlier this week i 20f ended up in the er due to my mental health. i had texted one of my best friend’s 20m friends, who then spoke to my best friend, who then called the ambulance.

i was taken to the er in the evening, and in the morning i asked my friend if we could call before he had to go in to college. when he replied to my texts, he had a go at me for putting him down as my next of kin (i had asked him if i could and he said yeah). that’s all he had to say. didn’t ask if im ok or anything like that. later that evening, his mom rang me and she said he was worried about me.

it’s been a couple of days and i’ve not heard from him at all. i’ve texted him a couple times but he’s just left me on read. i don’t know what im meant to do. we’ve been best friends for a while and we love hanging out, but now he won’t talk to me, and to be completely honest, everything sucks at the moment and i could really do with the support of my best friend.

has anyone got any advice on what i should say or do? i just feel so lost without my best friend’s support.
