@simplymefionamaloney: They look like epileptic seizures, but they’re not. Non‑epileptic seizures happen when the brain’s messages get mixed up — no abnormal electricity, just a glitch in the system. Triggers can be stress, tiredness, pain, or overstimulation. They are real, scary, and leave you with a brutal hangover. The good news? With the right support, pacing, and retraining, many people reduce how often they happen. This is for anyone who’s ever been told ‘it’s just anxiety’ or ‘you’re faking it’ — it’s real, it’s valid, and you’re not alone. 💛 #FND #NonEpilepticSeizures #NES #FunctionalSeizures #SeizureAwareness
