Hi everyone
I understand this may be a strange question
I have bilateral complex partial epilepsy
Senses severely trigger me

I am just wondering... why does this happen? It is sort of existential question.
I am just wondering if anyone has any ideas. I don't care if no one has the perfect answer.

I just don't like this suffering. I don't know why my brain must insist on being this way.

Thank you very much.

I am not a scientist nor a doctor but my guess is that the sensory input is overwhelming your brain and it is responding by overcompensating and sending panic signals to your muscles that cause you to have seizures.
