Have grand mal seizures also. They are hard prodding pain to my brain. When I have one it is like lightening and thunder storms inside my head. I hear noises and see flashes of light. My body gets all stiff and jerky. It also seems like I am drowning because all my breath stays inside.
When I am nervous or very afraid, seizures can happen. I likely fear too much. Sometimes something I eat causes seizures. I am allergic to many foods and medicines. It just seems like all my senses are wired differently. Greatly interesting!
Now I'd like to share a poem I wrote once about seizures:
Seizure
Moaning in the night
Really frightening dreams
Feel angry inside
Loony noises in my head
Flashes of light
Awful pain in my brain
These are seizures.
