Can somebody describe temporal lobe epilepsy experiences?


My brother thinks he's having out of body experiences. He described one and it was very visual. Wondering if it could be temporal lobe epilepsy.

My son is a bi polar 1 patient with a secondary condition of temporal lobe epilepsy, one time he was panicking and thought he was dead, another time he thought objects in the room had become alive. The consultant neurologist said that these two incidents were temporal lobe epilepsy and not bi polar 1

Hope this helps, there is no chance that my son was taking drugs, that aways needs to be established. I am not saying your brother is, but that has to apparently be established, then a cat scan, but it does not always show up. Hope this has helped. It sounds similar to me, if my son described as your brother i would think so
Although my son's diagnosis is temporal lobe epilepsy, he does not have actual seizures, as complex partial epilepsy is not always seizures, not in his case anyway.


He has always remained fully awake through these and incidents like that i describe and has never lost conciseness, the neurologist said there are types of seizures that are so like this. Your mother needs to get a referral to a neurologist ASAP it sounds very likely to me.On what you say.

if he can descibe what happened then it is unlikely to be that people with any kind of epilepsy can not descibe what happened i have it and when people ask me to descibe what happened i cant its to hard to get anybody to understand the best one i had was when i went to the hospital for tests and they asked me what happens during a fit how the heck am i supposed to now im unconscious and that was an Expert asking me that if you are worried go to the doctors

Yes, it is very possible.

Despite what Nicola said, many people with temporal lobe epilepsy remain fully conscious during a seizure.

The best thing for your brother would be an evaluation by a neurologist.

All the best.
