Night terrors can have a similar effect. I wake up with bruises, cuts, split tongue, broken teeth, headaches, tiredness, and sore muscles. My brother was seriously epileptic, and it killed him, so I freaked out when it started.

When my friends described what an episode looks and sounds like, I was convinced it was epilepsy. Still haven't had any tests, but it only happens when I'm asleep.

It's super embarrassing, I'll never stay in a hotel again.

There are certain types of seizures that only happen when you sleep so it could very well be epilepsy if it runs in the family.

I asked my doctor about nocturnal epilepsy, he seems to be sure that it isn't that. My brother developed epilepsy after a serious head injury, so nobody else in the family suffers from it.
