My dog Kaiser passed away a few years ago and he was epileptic. He had 366 seizures in a span of 3 years before his death, ranging from small ones to full ones. It was a cruel illness that happened at random at any time of day (or night) and would leave him disoriented and pass urine/motion. But he really was a fighter. He passed away peacefully in his sleep from other health issues. Love you and miss you Kaiser. ❤️
Here because my dad is epileptic. I grew up caring for him when he'd have a seizure. His first seizure happened when my mom was 8 months pregnant with me. When he was 18 and in the US Army after he migrated to the states, he got into a humvee accident hitting a tree and going head first out the bulletproof window into the tree. First seizure happened when he was 31 years old for scarred brain tissue from the trauma he faced13 years later. If there's anyone in the world to write an autobiography on, it would be him. He's the greatest man I know. Experienced so much tragedy, racism, neglect, unappreciation, in life and still remained humble, and positive till today accomplishing more than I've seen people born and raised with privilege in the states have ever done. If you have a great dad, please commend them.

I don’t understand why they said to not put anything in the mouth though… my mom said putting careful things (that don’t end up going in their mouth or end up choking them) will help more as people can bite their tongue off during seizures.
@@kentcelicious578 True-The actual "brain" (tissues) itself has no pain receptors. That's why local anesthetics can be used to perform brain surgeries.
Crazy that this video just came out and landed in my recommended. My dad just suffered a seizure out of no where while he was driving on the highway 2 weeks ago (luckily we’re all ok even if our car is trashed). It’s an adjustment for all of us, especially him, but we’re hopeful he’ll have a pretty good quality of life with all the modern treatments and information we have now.
I’m glad you’re okay. Watching anyone, especially someone you care about, having a seizure can be terrifying and I can’t even begin to imagine how it would feel to be a car while they were driving. If it makes you feel any better, some people can have one or two unexplained seizures and never have them again. My mom had two when she was younger and the doctors couldn’t find a reason and she didn’t have anymore.
@@brookiki the entire experience was honestly traumatizing but we’re just happy we made it out alive. It’s harder for my dad cause he feels responsible. It’s really just been taking one day at a time. Thank you for your concern! I’m happy that it hasn’t happened again to your mom and I honestly hope she never has another one 🙏

I would be worried, because SO many people have bad intentions that if we all used 100% of our brains things would get from bad to worse. For now, what we use of our brains now is like a restraint.
@@pacchioni985 I don't think you were attacking me at all 🤣 I'm sorry if it came off that way. I capitalized after to show emphasis on that I didn't know until I researched and fact checked myself. I actually appreciate the correction. And then, I added to what I did learn on that website to support the claim I have in that we don't use all of our brain. No hard feelings 🤣😁
@Matthew Morycinski It's much more than we think. I have lost all hope in humanity, and I'm just so over people and their antics. There are a few good ones out there, but the rest...Chile 😬
Wikipedia: Modern surgeons generally use the term craniotomy for this procedure. However, unlike our ancestors, craniotomy must be done after diagnostic imaging (which included computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) pinpointed the issues within the brain. The preoperative imaging allows for accurate examination and evaluation. Unlike trepanation, the removed piece of skull is typically replaced as soon as possible. Trepanation instruments, nowadays being replaced with cranial drills, are now available with diamond-coated rims, which are less traumatic than the classical trephines with sharp teeth. They are smooth to soft tissues and cut only bone. Additionally, the specially designed drills come with a safety feature that prevents the drill from penetrating into the brain tissue (through the dura mater). Along with antisepsis and prophylaxis of infection, modern neurosurgery is a common procedure for many reasons other than head trauma.
well I mean some ancient treatments are still used today oddly enough. the reason certain ones aren't used is because they are too risky or too deadly, or they're the lobotomy and then they're both deadly and risky. bloodletting is to an extent still used today for certain conditions but not many.
I’ve been taking seizure meds for a year now after having two seizures. I got diagnosed with a condition that causes an excess of water build up in the brain that results in getting seizures. And apparently I’ve had it since I was a baby but it only shows itself later in life. Seizures are real interesting things.
I’ve had seizures for about 11 years, I’m 19 and they said I would grow out of them, so far no luck even after years of different medications, they are something else
same here buddy, I had one seizure, got diagnosed and then started taking meds. I then had a SECOND SEIZURE after starting the meds and somehow the medication I take didn't work because dosage issues. I got diagnosed in my senior year of high school during COVID of all times(yes I did graduate in 2020, though the seizure actually happened in 2019, the second was October 2020). wait, you have that condition Arnold from Hey Arnold is theorized to have? I forgot the name, but I think I remember hearing of that condition from Hey Arnold theories.
@@nathanshelton4487 Don't give up on outgrowing it! I had the same thing, diagnosed when I was 6, and didn't outgrow it until last year (19 years old). A few others I know outgrew theirs in their 20s.
Hey love. I just had my 4th seizure within a span of years and it's a scary thing to go through but I wasn't getting any seizure meds for it since 2021. Def would love to keep in touch if you'd like through social media.
Seizure can be caused by lack of sleep for long duration like two to three days along with heavy responsibility. Generally, sensitive people who are not immune to hectic schedule get stroke or seizure attack. In this case a proper rest and some short term medication would be helpful. Getting the severity of seizure can cause anxiety and depression both. It's totally havoc but holistic and medication helps to adapt a new normal life.
Word to the wise: Don't listen to medical advice from illiterate crackpots in RUclips comment sections. If you believe you've had a seizure and aren't already being treated by an actual doctor, go see an actual doctor. Just saying lol
@@Saldivinorum don't worry, I have an official epilepsy diagnosis and am being treated by specialist doctors and nurses. I have also been prescribed seizure prevention drugs and take them regularly. Thanks for the advice, though!
@@Saldivinorum As someone with epilepsy, I can say that the person who commented is correct, as I've had several seizures do to horrible sleep schedules. It's one of my main triggers but thankfully, that hasn't been an issue lately. But yes, it is always best to see a doctor.
I am diagnosed with the same having tonic clonic and complex partial seizure since last 8 years and 3-4 times a year and recently gone through its surgery and removal of left hippocampus and amygdala 6 months ago after which i am not getting any of its symptoms but a little loss of memory and recalling words and facts........seizures and medicine damaged me alot like lenses , constipation, haemmoroids, cough , problem in breathing, being more talkative ,etc. ..........my education got distroyed......... no one can understand what i am going through and i bless to god for a new life........its just enough in this competitive situation.
More like a short circuit. Believe me, it feels like every nerve and muscle on your body is electrocuted after a siezure. Took me days to bring back my body to normal
i wish divine intervention would work for me lmaoooo nothing is working and i only have one thing left to try… they gonna take part of my brain out in november and if that doesn’t work, i have no clue what imma do
what they mean by "his seizures improved" is that the seizures have been managed. I know because I have epilepsy myself and I take medications for it, so my seizures have been managed which means they improved. improved doesn't just mean better in quality, it also means life has improved or something has been managed.
@@i_changed_my_username_ha8718 no problem, that terminology can be a bit confusing. I do understand why you thought what you thought, 'improved' is typically to say when things get better, but 'get better' doesn't they were better feeling but better for health
I would most certainly rather have a partial seizure than a convulsive seizure. A partial seizure for me can last seconds to multiple partial seizures over 30 minutes with no convulsions. Where a tonic-clonic (grand mal) convulsive seizure can lead to biting my tongue to the point that it bleeds, falling, with the soreness of convulsing that can last several weeks. Literally. Just wanted you to understand what seizures improving means.
I had my first seizure when I was sixteen. Medications got it under control, and after a few years of tinkering, they got the right dose of the right stuff. I went 30 years without a seizure before suffering a "breakthrough" seizure a couple of years ago. I am so thankful that I don't live in the days of trepanation, and never had to have part of my brain removed. One other type of surgery you didn't mention is the severing of the corpus callosum, the bundle of nerve fibres which connect the two halves of the brain. This doesn't eliminate seizures, but reduces their severity in people who suffer full-brain seizures. It is rare, because most people only suffer seizures in part of the brain, and therefore this procedure would not help them.
Terpanation is just the process of drilling a hole in someone’s skull and is regularly performed today to relieve intracranial pressure, stop bleeding, or remove tumors. Some instances of trepanation in the past were beneficial if done to relieve the proper ailments and without harming the brain.
Actually trepanation is a medical practice today. There are cases where the brain pressure is super high and you’ve gotta release some fluid and the best way to do that is a small hole. Just, ya know, under anesthesia and with sterile tools…
@@GeeklingNo1 Isn’t it amazing how we’re still using ancient methods because the people did them were into something? Especially ones that sound so ridiculous?
well that is not entirely(though mostly) true, super rarely is bloodletting performed. it's rare because of the massive amount of risk involved. bloodletting is most definitely a last resort beyond last resort option if it goes there.
Seizure is a serious disorder that most of us are familiar with. I’m glad of how they made that animation so we must be aware of its occurrence. Also, for the reason that some people make fun of it, like they imitate its abnormalities or movements for memes or for fun. What is the best feature in the video is how to handle patients having seizures. I always remember my classmate before having hyperventilation, which is like a seizure movement. Then, if she is having hyperventilation we don’t counter her actions because it might lead her to injuries, we just put her in a comfortable place and wait until she calms down. Thus, the video is great for having awareness of the do's and don'ts of someone having seizures.
Seizures can happen after a stroke, a closed head injury, an infection such as meningitis or another illness. Many times, though, the cause of a seizure is unknown. Most seizure disorders can be controlled with medication, but management of seizures can still have a significant impact on your daily life.
About nine years after having meningitis, I had my first of three seizures over a three year period of time. The first, I was not medicated and the last two I wasn't taking it regularly (because I was careless).
@@blueprogrammer503 no, i didnt mean it that way, i didnt wanna come out as rude or something, bc i just wanted to make yall feel a little better about it- im sorry i guess i didnt realize you would be so hurt about it.
I've been suffering from seizures for over 20 years. We've managed to dramatically improve them over the years, but I still have them. This video was very informative.

@@jessiezack9999 Like I said, I've had them for over 20 years. They started as strong auras when I was in middle school, with the actual seizures beginning in high school.
I am one of those people who has never had a preexisting condition and my doctors didn't know what to do for a while. they kept trying different medications, finally found one that works. Thank God. I am 5 yrs seizure-free now
In general, a seizure is due to excess electrical activity in the brain. Seizures are the primary symptom of epilepsy, but one seizure alone doesn't mean you have epilepsy. This video is very informative. I’m glad that this channel exist because it helps so much in understanding what is seizure in a very informative and simple way. I was fascinated on how the ancient people used to treat seizure especially the Trepanation, a surgery that drill a hole in a person’s skull to let the blood escape, and the Craniotomy, which is done by removing a part of patients skull temporarily to extract scarred brain tissue. Just by thinking the treatment and method they used makes me so glad that we have now a more convenient and advance Anti-seizure medications that could help to control and manage seizure. After I learned in the video that even though there are dozens of available seizure medications and the seizure treatments become more advanced as years go by, the fact that the underlying pathology of many seizure remain unclear makes me sad. I cannot imagine the things and struggles people with this kind of illness went through because I know for sure that one of the downside of this illness are that it would have a significant impact on their mental as well as on their physical health and it would cause limitations to all aspects of their life such as their social interaction which may cause anxiety and depression.
My dad has had micro-seizures that you don't even notice, but it's caused him to have serious memory problems for years. This is a topic that hits close to home.
I would have added one more do at the end of the video. Remove nearby objects from the person having the seizure to reduce or even completely eliminate the possibility for the person to hit an object and injure themselves.
I’m now 3 years seizure-free and counting! I would get horrible Grand Mal Seizures lasting minutes. I’m lucky I even survived as organ failure can happen.
"Lock thought you could treat seizures with medications which he proved by treating seizures with Potassium Bromide(or KBr) and Worsley thought you could treat seizures by removing part of the brain." Me:well, they technically are both correct, though the second is rarely done unless they are severe enough or that region of the brain is deemed "non-essiential" or "won't cause harm to the person overall", medications are more often used
What a coincidence. I was just researching on this same topic recently and I could only find limited videos that were comprehensive and easy to understand. I am in fact a visual learner. Very noice
After a serious head/brain injury I suffered seizures. After experimenting with and eliminating certain foods I ate; I almost completely ended them. [Rarely] do I have them now!

I really request to add subtitles so that we can capture particular words and terms and new vocabulary ! Only to use subtitles for specific terms names of persons and timelines . I really enjoying viewing videos on ted ed 😊 .... I love animations used
3:31 Hey, I see two of my medicines in there! Apparently, baby me cycled through MANY brands of anti-seizure medicines, and it took FOREVER to find one WITHOUT side effects
I was kinda burn out so I thought I would watch some videos but I discovered that when I learn things I'm better that's why I like watching documentries or reading books I think
This video was very informative! I was very much blown by how the ancient times used to create dire treatments in prevention of seizure. Just thinking about how grateful we are now that we have seizure medications that are much more convenient and rapidly advancing. Kudos to the people and doctors for their hard work in learning more about the complexity of the brain and the human body in general.
seizure can also cause of lack of sleep and stress and it can give shock of the body of the patient but this seizure can also prevent like get more medication and need more rest.
I've had classmates who suffered from seizures: In third grade, a boy had one over Christmas break (I think it was of the "Complex Partial" variety) and when school resumed he gave a lengthy explanation of what happened to him and how annoying it was to go for the CAT scan/MRI. In high school, there were at least two incidents I can recall when someone collapsed on the floor, twitching, and the teachers made all of us step back from him, sometimes shepherding us outside the classroom until it was resolved.
Gratitude is the secret weapon which makes you blind to the things you lack. May God keep you grounded in gratitude and lift you to the new heights of success and prosperity.
I have an Epilepsy for 11 years and still doctors don't know why it started and what they should do. My parents are trying not to give me any sedative drugs, because they think these are very dangerous. For 11 years I have seizures nearly every 4 or 5 days. Sometimes I even have 3 or 5 seizures and then it is very painful for me to move and to talk. Also my parents can't let me go somewhere alone, because there were a couple times of seizures in the public places. Epilepsy is very painful and scary 😔 I'm telling you as a somebody who has epilepsy.
one of my friends has epilepsy, and you don't know how scary they are until you're either there when one happens, or when the person having a seizure falls and gets hurt. one time my friend had one and hit his head on a locker, almost falling down a set of stairs. seizures are scary man
I had a siezure once and I still remember it so clearly apart from after I blacked out at first after I woke up I didn't even remember it was just like I woke up after going to bed but I quickly recalled what happened and I even remember the pain I felt in my hand I ended up in hospital for the rest of the day and had to take a week off College but I'm on meds now and I haven't had a bad one like that in 11 years hopefully there won't be a second one.
Epileptic here, some advice missing 1. Try and put something underneath the head (blanket, hoodie ect) 2. A lot of us carry instructions on what to do if we our found seizing, lot us have custom lock screen on our phones tell you what to do help. 3. If can't tell if we are breathing, if there's noticeable change in skin, the seizure is longer than 6mins, or you are just unsure call an ambulance. Seizure can be deadly.
One treatment not mentioned is a VNS (vagus nerve stimulator). I just had one put in not long ago. The simplest way to explain it is like a pacemaker for your brain
Sharing to anyone else who deals with this condition but I have had epilepsy since puberty and they increased into my adulthood. The one thing that truly helped me was when I cut back on alcohol
Isn't it fascinating how smart humans are? I mean no other, literally no other organism on earth comes even close to the human intelligence. Although we take it for Granted but if we look back to it we are really advanced beings.
How do you treat seizures? Treatments include: 1 medicines called anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) 2 surgery to remove a small part of the brain that's causing the seizures. 3 a procedure to put a small electrical device inside the body that can help control seizures. 4 a special diet (ketogenic diet) that can help control seizures.
Important to note that if a seizure occurs in a person close to you with a known history of Epilepsy, you do not need to call an ambulance for them. There’s very little the hospital will do and an ambulance ride is an expensive thing in America!
Mostly true, but after a certain amount of time you do need to call. Especially if they have a rescue medicine and it doesn't help. Call if they don't come out of it after ten minutes.
@@ILOVEMARILYNMANSON89 I've been told that you should call someone if they don't come back to their senses after five minutes by countless people and sources. I've never heard of calling the ambulance after ten minutes, but I wouldn't doubt that some last that long or even longer. Does it vary on the type of seizure and the person? I know you're supposed to always call if it's the person's very first one regardless of how long it is.
I'm 37 and have been having tonic Grandma seizures the full body convulsions for 3 years now appeared out of nowhere first two and a half years they told me it was a neurological problem now they're telling me it's a psychological problem and I'm realizing that the neurons are actually your emotions that are over stimulated because you're not dealing with them appropriately your emotions get overwhelmed with how you feel about certain things mine was nocturnal epilepsy and then turn into having seizures while I was conscious this got me to realize that the neurons are overstimulated because I was so stressed out about supporting my family and my occupation that the neurons were overstimulated with electricity in other words the emotions I was not dealing with correctly they were overworked with an overload of information when they're knocking on consciousness door to let him know about this information all at one time all of my emotions it was too much so when they were sent away to go back to where they resign with this overload of information it was causing a seizure I hope anyone and everyone suffering from this could learn to try to appropriately deal with your emotions throughout the day and night so that they're not over stimulated so that the seizures will stop if emotions are properly dealt with even grieving the main cause of seizures are stress grieving over a lost loved one or situations in your past that you haven't fully dealt with this is what I have learned in my experience I hope it helps
I have a friend that basically has constant ones throughout his life and I was always never too sure how they worked. I forgot what his condition is but basically its just random short periodic seizures based on certain sensory triggers more than just light. Which makes more sense watching this video. Its a bit surreal seeing someone panic (people have several times) watching him have a seizure and having us calmly look at then explaining that this is normal and that theres nothing to stop this and that he'll come to shortly.

I recall an extreme surgery where if the seizures affect an entire hemisphere of the brain, the surgeons would literally remove the entire hemisphere. The patients are usually fine in spite of missing half their brain (especially if it is done when they are younger) since the other half could take up the workload normally shared by the two hemispheres. It almost always work to cure the problem definitively, though as you can imagine it is not without risks. EDIT: The procedure is officially called a 'Hemispherectomy'.
yeah that is called a hemirectormey or whatever, mind you I am a somewhat terrible speller but that is a real surgery that sometimes is performed. not extremely common(heck it is more extremely rare than anything else) because of the massive risks involved with the whole you know left hemisphere of the brain controlling the right side of the body and the right hemisphere of the brain controlling the left side of the body. humans are most certainly best with both hemispheres, though in certain scenarios one will be removed, those would be the most dire of scenarios however
Seizure medications can have horrible side effects. I’m epileptic and have been on over 8 medications. I’ve had terrible side effects like becoming allergic to the sun, metabolic acidosis, severe weight loss (30lbs in two months), and in general being allergic. Until we can figure out why folks have seizures and why medications work it’s just an experiment on one’s body and hopefully something works that’s on the market.
I have no experience in seizure but I've been encounter people have seizure. The people are diagnosed with epilepsy when they have had two or more seizures and pain during seizures is rare . Through this video, in the future i already know how to do if i encounter people again who have seizure. Additionally, seizures can be fatal, but dying from a seizure is uncommon .
Here's what you actually do to help someone who's having a seizure. 1. Roll them on thier left side. 2. Yell thier name until the seizure stops. 3. Only call emergency services if the person hits his/her head, isn't breathing, or dying. 4. With small seizures or a waking seizure ( a waking seizure is a seizure is happening while the person is awake and knows what is happening, it can scary for all but usually not serious) and with small seizures, just like big ones like in this video, just stay home with the person and let them sleep because they will be exhausted as ya'll can imagine. And leaving them alone after is never a good idea because there is a huge chance that they can have another one. And 5. The actual diagnosis is called Epilepsy and can range from small to big any moment. For me, it's hormonal and I'm birth control along with medicine I was taking and both help. Flashing lights and heat can also be a trigger. Oh, and always make sure that everyone with Epilepsy drinks a lot of water because it helps obvious stuff. Just wanted to help ya'll out with stuff the video left out and add personal experience to help. P.s. the person who told me my Epilepsy is hormonal and persricbed me birth control is the same doctor who delivered me, ironic huh?
I love how calm the patient was when he was getting a hole drilled through his head
we all could learn something from that guy
I’ve had it done, very therapeutic. Only a handful of side effects.

I would be worried, because SO many people have bad intentions that if we all used 100% of our brains things would get from bad to worse. For now, what we use of our brains now is like a restraint.
What if we are actually using 100%?

Trepanation is a perfectly valid and still practiced way to treat epidural hematoma.
Wikipedia:
Modern surgeons generally use the term craniotomy for this procedure. However, unlike our ancestors, craniotomy must be done after diagnostic imaging (which included computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) pinpointed the issues within the brain. The preoperative imaging allows for accurate examination and evaluation. Unlike trepanation, the removed piece of skull is typically replaced as soon as possible. Trepanation instruments, nowadays being replaced with cranial drills, are now available with diamond-coated rims, which are less traumatic than the classical trephines with sharp teeth. They are smooth to soft tissues and cut only bone. Additionally, the specially designed drills come with a safety feature that prevents the drill from penetrating into the brain tissue (through the dura mater). Along with antisepsis and prophylaxis of infection, modern neurosurgery is a common procedure for many reasons other than head trauma.
well I mean some ancient treatments are still used today oddly enough. the reason certain ones aren't used is because they are too risky or too deadly, or they're the lobotomy and then they're both deadly and risky. bloodletting is to an extent still used today for certain conditions but not many.
I’ve been taking seizure meds for a year now after having two seizures. I got diagnosed with a condition that causes an excess of water build up in the brain that results in getting seizures. And apparently I’ve had it since I was a baby but it only shows itself later in life. Seizures are real interesting things.
I’ve had seizures for about 11 years, I’m 19 and they said I would grow out of them, so far no luck even after years of different medications, they are something else
@@nathanshelton4487 Truly
same here buddy, I had one seizure, got diagnosed and then started taking meds. I then had a SECOND SEIZURE after starting the meds and somehow the medication I take didn't work because dosage issues. I got diagnosed in my senior year of high school during COVID of all times(yes I did graduate in 2020, though the seizure actually happened in 2019, the second was October 2020). wait, you have that condition Arnold from Hey Arnold is theorized to have? I forgot the name, but I think I remember hearing of that condition from Hey Arnold theories.
@@nathanshelton4487 Don't give up on outgrowing it! I had the same thing, diagnosed when I was 6, and didn't outgrow it until last year (19 years old). A few others I know outgrew theirs in their 20s.
Hey love. I just had my 4th seizure within a span of years and it's a scary thing to go through but I wasn't getting any seizure meds for it since 2021.
Def would love to keep in touch if you'd like through social media.
Seizure can be caused by lack of sleep for long duration like two to three days along with heavy responsibility. Generally, sensitive people who are not immune to hectic schedule get stroke or seizure attack. In this case a proper rest and some short term medication would be helpful. Getting the severity of seizure can cause anxiety and depression both. It's totally havoc but holistic and medication helps to adapt a new normal life.
I think this happened to me on Saturday, I had a seizure and I think it was due to high levels of stress and screen time.
Word to the wise: Don't listen to medical advice from illiterate crackpots in RUclips comment sections. If you believe you've had a seizure and aren't already being treated by an actual doctor, go see an actual doctor. Just saying lol
@@Saldivinorum don't worry, I have an official epilepsy diagnosis and am being treated by specialist doctors and nurses. I have also been prescribed seizure prevention drugs and take them regularly. Thanks for the advice, though!
@@Saldivinorum As someone with epilepsy, I can say that the person who commented is correct, as I've had several seizures do to horrible sleep schedules. It's one of my main triggers but thankfully, that hasn't been an issue lately. But yes, it is always best to see a doctor.
This sounds like one of the theories my neurologist has for my seizures. I have focal epilepsy, so yes, spot on.
Good move on showing the correct response to seizures at the end. Very important information
I am diagnosed with the same having tonic clonic and complex partial seizure since last 8 years and 3-4 times a year and recently gone through its surgery and removal of left hippocampus and amygdala 6 months ago after which i am not getting any of its symptoms but a little loss of memory and recalling words and facts........seizures and medicine damaged me alot like lenses , constipation, haemmoroids, cough , problem in breathing, being more talkative ,etc. ..........my education got distroyed......... no one can understand what i am going through and i bless to god for a new life........its just enough in this competitive situation.
*So a seizure is a brain's version of an earthquake.*

"His seizures improved."
I'm just imagining "Wow, that was a much better seizure! I liked that seizure a lot more than the last one. "
what they mean by "his seizures improved" is that the seizures have been managed. I know because I have epilepsy myself and I take medications for it, so my seizures have been managed which means they improved. improved doesn't just mean better in quality, it also means life has improved or something has been managed.
@@macaylacayton2915 Thanks for the explanation! :0
@@i_changed_my_username_ha8718 no problem, that terminology can be a bit confusing. I do understand why you thought what you thought, 'improved' is typically to say when things get better, but 'get better' doesn't they were better feeling but better for health
@@i_changed_my_username_ha8718 😂😂😂
I would most certainly rather have a partial seizure than a convulsive seizure. A partial seizure for me can last seconds to multiple partial seizures over 30 minutes with no convulsions. Where a tonic-clonic (grand mal) convulsive seizure can lead to biting my tongue to the point that it bleeds, falling, with the soreness of convulsing that can last several weeks. Literally.
Just wanted you to understand what seizures improving means.
I had my first seizure when I was sixteen. Medications got it under control, and after a few years of tinkering, they got the right dose of the right stuff. I went 30 years without a seizure before suffering a "breakthrough" seizure a couple of years ago.
I am so thankful that I don't live in the days of trepanation, and never had to have part of my brain removed.
One other type of surgery you didn't mention is the severing of the corpus callosum, the bundle of nerve fibres which connect the two halves of the brain. This doesn't eliminate seizures, but reduces their severity in people who suffer full-brain seizures. It is rare, because most people only suffer seizures in part of the brain, and therefore this procedure would not help them.
Kindly advise on the medication that you have had, I always have seizure every day, every night but on my left side
Also, grateful we no longer have to “perform” trepanation 😑
Terpanation is just the process of drilling a hole in someone’s skull and is regularly performed today to relieve intracranial pressure, stop bleeding, or remove tumors. Some instances of trepanation in the past were beneficial if done to relieve the proper ailments and without harming the brain.
Actually trepanation is a medical practice today. There are cases where the brain pressure is super high and you’ve gotta release some fluid and the best way to do that is a small hole. Just, ya know, under anesthesia and with sterile tools…
@@GeeklingNo1 Isn’t it amazing how we’re still using ancient methods because the people did them were into something? Especially ones that sound so ridiculous?
well that is not entirely(though mostly) true, super rarely is bloodletting performed. it's rare because of the massive amount of risk involved. bloodletting is most definitely a last resort beyond last resort option if it goes there.
/drill a hole in your head 😌
Ive had epilepsy for 11 years, this past weekend was a horrible period for my seizures. Crazy timing that this comes out right after it happens

Seizure is a serious disorder that most of us are familiar with. I’m glad of how they made that animation so we must be aware of its occurrence. Also, for the reason that some people make fun of it, like they imitate its abnormalities or movements for memes or for fun. What is the best feature in the video is how to handle patients having seizures. I always remember my classmate before having hyperventilation, which is like a seizure movement. Then, if she is having hyperventilation we don’t counter her actions because it might lead her to injuries, we just put her in a comfortable place and wait until she calms down. Thus, the video is great for having awareness of the do's and don'ts of someone having seizures.
Seizures can happen after a stroke, a closed head injury, an infection such as meningitis or another illness. Many times, though, the cause of a seizure is unknown. Most seizure disorders can be controlled with medication, but management of seizures can still have a significant impact on your daily life.
About nine years after having meningitis, I had my first of three seizures over a three year period of time. The first, I was not medicated and the last two I wasn't taking it regularly (because I was careless).

It's Not only education but also, entertaining
I am one of those people who has never had a preexisting condition and my doctors didn't know what to do for a while. they kept trying different medications, finally found one that works. Thank God. I am 5 yrs seizure-free now
In general, a seizure is due to excess electrical activity in the brain. Seizures are the primary symptom of epilepsy, but one seizure alone doesn't mean you have epilepsy. This video is very informative. I’m glad that this channel exist because it helps so much in understanding what is seizure in a very informative and simple way. I was fascinated on how the ancient people used to treat seizure especially the Trepanation, a surgery that drill a hole in a person’s skull to let the blood escape, and the Craniotomy, which is done by removing a part of patients skull temporarily to extract scarred brain tissue. Just by thinking the treatment and method they used makes me so glad that we have now a more convenient and advance Anti-seizure medications that could help to control and manage seizure. After I learned in the video that even though there are dozens of available seizure medications and the seizure treatments become more advanced as years go by, the fact that the underlying pathology of many seizure remain unclear makes me sad. I cannot imagine the things and struggles people with this kind of illness went through because I know for sure that one of the downside of this illness are that it would have a significant impact on their mental as well as on their physical health and it would cause limitations to all aspects of their life such as their social interaction which may cause anxiety and depression.
I love these videos. Also, it would be really helpful if you guys start providing the citations too.
I hope these animations never stop improving its always so so so good

My dad has had micro-seizures that you don't even notice, but it's caused him to have serious memory problems for years. This is a topic that hits close to home.
Do you mean a petit mal?
a few days ago we celebrated 2 years seizure free for my sister, she has dravet syndrome which is usually much much worse. shes doing very good!!
Just what I need to know more about myself :)
The background music is so calming and scenic for a topic about seizures. Sorta makes sense.
My dad actually got a seizure, for drinking alcohol. My mom told me that He had to get an MRI to help my dad.
The effort put in for these videos are just priceless! :)
Love learning the history behind medical cases I treat daily!
Thank you for all you and the rest of the world of medicine does :)
I would have added one more do at the end of the video. Remove nearby objects from the person having the seizure to reduce or even completely eliminate the possibility for the person to hit an object and injure themselves.
Beautifully done video. Simple and concise but at the same time detailed and informative as well. Thanks for the Dos and Donts too. 🙂
I’m now 3 years seizure-free and counting! I would get horrible Grand Mal Seizures lasting minutes. I’m lucky I even survived as organ failure can happen.
How did you treat yourself?
"Lock thought you could treat seizures with medications which he proved by treating seizures with Potassium Bromide(or KBr) and Worsley thought you could treat seizures by removing part of the brain." Me:well, they technically are both correct, though the second is rarely done unless they are severe enough or that region of the brain is deemed "non-essiential" or "won't cause harm to the person overall", medications are more often used
What a coincidence. I was just researching on this same topic recently and I could only find limited videos that were comprehensive and easy to understand. I am in fact a visual learner. Very noice
After a serious head/brain injury I suffered seizures. After experimenting with and eliminating certain foods I ate; I almost completely ended them. [Rarely] do I have them now!
That's great! Good for you for being persistent enough to figure it out.

This video was very informative! I was very much blown by how the ancient times used to create dire treatments in prevention of seizure. Just thinking about how grateful we are now that we have seizure medications that are much more convenient and rapidly advancing. Kudos to the people and doctors for their hard work in learning more about the complexity of the brain and the human body in general.
seizure can also cause of lack of sleep and stress and it can give shock of the body of the patient but this seizure can also prevent like get more medication and need more rest.
I feel like this was a great video about Seizure and how to solve them,also the animation was very good.
I've had classmates who suffered from seizures: In third grade, a boy had one over Christmas break (I think it was of the "Complex Partial" variety) and when school resumed he gave a lengthy explanation of what happened to him and how annoying it was to go for the CAT scan/MRI. In high school, there were at least two incidents I can recall when someone collapsed on the floor, twitching, and the teachers made all of us step back from him, sometimes shepherding us outside the classroom until it was resolved.
Thanks for caption.
Gratitude is the secret weapon which makes you blind to the things you lack. May God keep you grounded in gratitude and lift you to the new heights of success and prosperity.

"The sea was angry that day my friends, like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli."
I have an Epilepsy for 11 years and still doctors don't know why it started and what they should do. My parents are trying not to give me any sedative drugs, because they think these are very dangerous. For 11 years I have seizures nearly every 4 or 5 days. Sometimes I even have 3 or 5 seizures and then it is very painful for me to move and to talk. Also my parents can't let me go somewhere alone, because there were a couple times of seizures in the public places. Epilepsy is very painful and scary 😔 I'm telling you as a somebody who has epilepsy.
Do you take pills
one of my friends has epilepsy, and you don't know how scary they are until you're either there when one happens, or when the person having a seizure falls and gets hurt. one time my friend had one and hit his head on a locker, almost falling down a set of stairs. seizures are scary man
I had a siezure once and I still remember it so clearly apart from after I blacked out at first after I woke up I didn't even remember it was just like I woke up after going to bed but I quickly recalled what happened and I even remember the pain I felt in my hand I ended up in hospital for the rest of the day and had to take a week off College but I'm on meds now and I haven't had a bad one like that in 11 years hopefully there won't be a second one.
I've had seizures for about a year or so with no diagnosis, been thinking about working for the epilepsy foundation
Epileptic here, some advice missing 1. Try and put something underneath the head (blanket, hoodie ect) 2. A lot of us carry instructions on what to do if we our found seizing, lot us have custom lock screen on our phones tell you what to do help. 3. If can't tell if we are breathing, if there's noticeable change in skin, the seizure is longer than 6mins, or you are just unsure call an ambulance. Seizure can be deadly.
Why is this so relaxing
One treatment not mentioned is a VNS (vagus nerve stimulator). I just had one put in not long ago. The simplest way to explain it is like a pacemaker for your brain
Sharing to anyone else who deals with this condition but I have had epilepsy since puberty and they increased into my adulthood. The one thing that truly helped me was when I cut back on alcohol
Isn't it fascinating how smart humans are? I mean no other, literally no other organism on earth comes even close to the human intelligence. Although we take it for Granted but if we look back to it we are really advanced beings.
Love this channel so much 😌✨👌
How do you treat seizures?
Treatments include:
1 medicines called anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs)
2 surgery to remove a small part of the brain that's causing the seizures.
3 a procedure to put a small electrical device inside the body that can help control seizures.
4 a special diet (ketogenic diet) that can help control seizures.
" # 3) a procedure to put a small electrical device inside the body that can help control seizures.

It’s a small thing but i love that they depict a female surgeon!!!!
Yes, considering how very few neurosurgeons are women.
Important to note that if a seizure occurs in a person close to you with a known history of Epilepsy, you do not need to call an ambulance for them.
There’s very little the hospital will do and an ambulance ride is an expensive thing in America!
Mostly true, but after a certain amount of time you do need to call. Especially if they have a rescue medicine and it doesn't help. Call if they don't come out of it after ten minutes.
@@ILOVEMARILYNMANSON89 I've been told that you should call someone if they don't come back to their senses after five minutes by countless people and sources. I've never heard of calling the ambulance after ten minutes, but I wouldn't doubt that some last that long or even longer. Does it vary on the type of seizure and the person? I know you're supposed to always call if it's the person's very first one regardless of how long it is.
@@katiela7021 you're right. I think for most it's five minutes if you don't have rescue medicine. You wait five more minutes after giving it. Sorry!

I'm 37 and have been having tonic Grandma seizures the full body convulsions for 3 years now appeared out of nowhere first two and a half years they told me it was a neurological problem now they're telling me it's a psychological problem and I'm realizing that the neurons are actually your emotions that are over stimulated because you're not dealing with them appropriately your emotions get overwhelmed with how you feel about certain things mine was nocturnal epilepsy and then turn into having seizures while I was conscious this got me to realize that the neurons are overstimulated because I was so stressed out about supporting my family and my occupation that the neurons were overstimulated with electricity in other words the emotions I was not dealing with correctly they were overworked with an overload of information when they're knocking on consciousness door to let him know about this information all at one time all of my emotions it was too much so when they were sent away to go back to where they resign with this overload of information it was causing a seizure I hope anyone and everyone suffering from this could learn to try to appropriately deal with your emotions throughout the day and night so that they're not over stimulated so that the seizures will stop if emotions are properly dealt with even grieving the main cause of seizures are stress grieving over a lost loved one or situations in your past that you haven't fully dealt with this is what I have learned in my experience I hope it helps
I have a friend that basically has constant ones throughout his life and I was always never too sure how they worked.
I forgot what his condition is but basically its just random short periodic seizures based on certain sensory triggers more than just light. Which makes more sense watching this video.
Its a bit surreal seeing someone panic (people have several times) watching him have a seizure and having us calmly look at then explaining that this is normal and that theres nothing to stop this and that he'll come to shortly.

I recall an extreme surgery where if the seizures affect an entire hemisphere of the brain, the surgeons would literally remove the entire hemisphere. The patients are usually fine in spite of missing half their brain (especially if it is done when they are younger) since the other half could take up the workload normally shared by the two hemispheres. It almost always work to cure the problem definitively, though as you can imagine it is not without risks. EDIT: The procedure is officially called a 'Hemispherectomy'.
yeah that is called a hemirectormey or whatever, mind you I am a somewhat terrible speller but that is a real surgery that sometimes is performed. not extremely common(heck it is more extremely rare than anything else) because of the massive risks involved with the whole you know left hemisphere of the brain controlling the right side of the body and the right hemisphere of the brain controlling the left side of the body. humans are most certainly best with both hemispheres, though in certain scenarios one will be removed, those would be the most dire of scenarios however
Seizure medications can have horrible side effects. I’m epileptic and have been on over 8 medications. I’ve had terrible side effects like becoming allergic to the sun, metabolic acidosis, severe weight loss (30lbs in two months), and in general being allergic. Until we can figure out why folks have seizures and why medications work it’s just an experiment on one’s body and hopefully something works that’s on the market.
Have you heard of (or tried) epidiolex? It's a newer drug. Has worked wonders on my niece. Ask your doctor about it.
@@ILOVEMARILYNMANSON89 I haven’t heard of it thanks I’ll look into it
I have no experience in seizure but I've been encounter people have seizure. The people are diagnosed with epilepsy when they have had two or more seizures and pain during seizures is rare . Through this video, in the future i already know how to do if i encounter people again who have seizure. Additionally, seizures can be fatal, but dying from a seizure is uncommon .
A+ editing and writing ✍️ 🫡
Here's what you actually do to help someone who's having a seizure. 1. Roll them on thier left side. 2. Yell thier name until the seizure stops. 3. Only call emergency services if the person hits his/her head, isn't breathing, or dying. 4. With small seizures or a waking seizure ( a waking seizure is a seizure is happening while the person is awake and knows what is happening, it can scary for all but usually not serious) and with small seizures, just like big ones like in this video, just stay home with the person and let them sleep because they will be exhausted as ya'll can imagine. And leaving them alone after is never a good idea because there is a huge chance that they can have another one. And 5. The actual diagnosis is called Epilepsy and can range from small to big any moment. For me, it's hormonal and I'm birth control along with medicine I was taking and both help. Flashing lights and heat can also be a trigger. Oh, and always make sure that everyone with Epilepsy drinks a lot of water because it helps obvious stuff. Just wanted to help ya'll out with stuff the video left out and add personal experience to help. P.s. the person who told me my Epilepsy is hormonal and persricbed me birth control is the same doctor who delivered me, ironic huh?
Lol yell their name?
