How long are your episodes?
I have PNES and usually during episodes I’m aware of everything going on.. So it seems like forever whether it was a short or long episode, but thankfully I have someone who times them.
My episodes have lasted anywhere from 15 seconds to one that was 6 hours.
Again, I was having a PNES episode for 6 HOURS… afterwards I was unable to talk for another 2-3 hours. It felt like forever because I was aware the whole time..
At the time I was in school so they had to call an ambulance immediately after I lost consciousness because of their protocols, so most of the episode was in the ER.
I feel like it’s not normal for PNES, or any condition, to have an episode for that long. Has anyone ever experienced a long episode like that?
EDIT: The majority of my episodes (including the one I’m asking about) are like passing out. My body goes completely limp and it’s like dead weight. Sorry, I should’ve clarified.
