## It's been a long time since I feel down with a seizure but when I did I always hit my head..I also have episodes where I won't recognize where I am and alot of different kinds of lights and especially strobe lights make me want to go down...not all of the time I mostly always wear sunglasses when I go out be it a sunny day or cloudy ..glares really bother me ..anxiety doesn't help at all and that's been worse ever in my whole life in the past years ..terrible
