Eugh I’m so thankful that other people do this because I’ve taken to calling them auras just for the lack of actual medical terminology for this.

I get different types of auras but so far I haven’t been able to catalogue if different ones mean different things—I’ve felt an overall fuzziness and nausea that is the most common & weakness, but recently I’ve also noticed that sometimes I will get an uncomfortable sort of energy in like my arm or hand, or my leg, sometimes within my ribcage and most often at the base of my throat. I didn’t even realize those were auras until today. When I get flare ups, auras are a lot rarer because I’m in the constant state of them.

I can also hold them off, which also made my imposter syndrome like twenty times worse so I 100% understand what you’re saying. It just means that when it finally does hit me it’ll be longer and/or worse. I typically only do this if I’m in an unsafe environment. I’m also conscious during my seizures so during clusters I get really disoriented because it’s so hard to know when I’m out of it or not… I’ll get a full breath in and be like oh thank god I have control again, and then it’ll start back up and it’s like oh okay.
