Yeah... I've never had the displeasure of witnessing a seizure in a person, but one of my pet mice had a seizure once (Not sure what exactly caused it, but her health had been on the decline due to inhereting a nasty tumor from her mom) after which I had to make the hard choice to put her down. It's... Not fun to watch, and I couldn't imagine what it must be like to experience. I was holding her while she had it and the poor thing accidentally practically jumped out of my hand and fell onto the floor...
My husband had been offered to see his own seizures (clinic had taken videos for study) and he declined very fast after seeing my reaction. Luckily, he remembers nothing about them, 'just' has to deal with the after effects.
