You talk mostly about depression but I'm having anxiety and hard to tell which is aura and which is panic. Any connections, signs to know which is which?

I can say bad stress, depression brings triggers panick attacks, anxiety or seizures. Hard to tell...

@@rachelastillero7645 I've recently suffered from seizures along with depression and anxiety, severe preictal depression and paranoia. You're not alone and I hope you can get the care you need. Much love and prayers from KC.

They have me on an AED called Keppra; what... a 🎢 rollercoaster ride. 😆 I'm more anxious and have erratic sleep pattern which is disconcerting. Oh well am awaiting a disability decision.

@Grace Kathryn the craziest thing about seizure disorders is how some people Will gauge others by appearance. ie. "Oh you don't Look like you have seizures..." 🙄
