Seizures have shown me I will live a short life 🫡
I never really got to speak about this but here it goes
Iv been suffering with seizures for about a year now, to the point where Iv been hospitalised and it’s changed my whole life really. As you can probably predict it has effected me both physically and mentally now.
Physically I always get pain in my chest area and painful headaches with some days feeling extremely drained. Mentally Iv lost all my memories of my past, I feel a lot more slower but also feel more content and accepting of life. With my seizures I feel like Iv seen death, I feel like I saw my own future during my seizures with life feeling like I’m living in 3rd person 24/7. De Ja Vu being a common occurrence in my daily life.
I also feel like I’m going to pass away soon, I feel like I can feel my insides telling me it’s not right, there’s a strange aura telling me that I’m deteriorating slowly.
I don’t know what to say or do tbh

I would recommend you speak with your GP and/or treating specialist about this. I don't think that having seizures will necessarily lead to a significantly shortened lifespan, but if your condition is causing you a lot of anxiety and this is affecting your day to day life it's definitely worth discussing with them, along with the other experiences you've had when having your seizures. There may be able to help you find a management plan to mitigate those aspects
