If the silence from you of no sound what so ever??? All a seizure is is an electrical impulse going off wrong in the brain causing a chain reaction, Most people can do nothing during that period of time. I can generally see hear and understand what is happeniong during my seizures I just can't respond or simetimes move until the seizure is over. Whether it is a petite mal patrial seizure or a focal seizure. I think it is due to the chain reaction and until the seizure is over the what I am trying to do is stopped. In class I heard the teacher ask teh questions and knew the answer to the question. I was trying to answer the question asked but the sound did not come out until after she had gone to the next student. Teachers had been writting me up for day dreaming when in reality those day dreams were seizures.
