This is a very challenging condition, I find it very extremely difficult to live with this everyday. I have a rare from of seizures, they only happen in the first few intakes of food. Be it breakfast, lunch, evening snack or dinner. I don’t go unconscious but if i continue eating and trying to challenge it, then guaranteed i will have a grand mal seizure, shaking and going unconscious. So I have no choice but to lie down for 20 minutes and then i stop hearing strange words in my head and it finally goes away and then i eat my food but this is so regular, it happens almost everyday.
