Anyone of you ever had problems with seizures? Do you know you're having one or do you just blackout? Does it hurt at all?

I had a dog that had seizures. He didn't say if it hurt or not.

Probably because you didn't ask. People just assume that dogs won't talk back.

Immense pain and memory loss. Electric fire shooting across every nerve then slowly coming too unable to speak like you took some ultra dissociative. Once all the way out of it your muscles feel like you put in a month long intense workout into about 30 seconds and are sore af.

Minor seizures from a few seconds to a little over a minute for me are very close to the experience described by mndfreeze.
Grand Mal seizures are a whole new horrific level; I've had one so intense that my muscles not only took WEEKS to recover but I literally forgot myself and basic muscle memory. It took me a week to both remember and be able to walk again. About a month+ after I had almost all my memory back. Similar to your worst nightmare, your brain doesn't want to bring any of that information back to hold on to. I remember being thrown across cosmic plains of hell; entities existing/occupying them were perpetually biting & eating me to death. The planes the Hell are more real then this in the sense it is so horrific it is like mirroring the opposite of all your best feelings & experiences. When I came back my family and the doctors said I was white as a ghost, looked terrified, and was biting into the air around me (trying to keep back everything hurting me). There's not a doubt in my mind if I would have died right then that's where I would have stayed; & deserving so with two little girls to raise. Alcohol has a VERY similar effect on your GABA activity which is why they are the only two drugs known to have a fair chance at causing death from quitting with large daily use.
Benzodiazepine use, which guarantees you won't experience any while on them; however you have to continually up you dose every 6 months to keep from going into adverse reaction. When you finally quit you will have to go through this, and the longer you wait the worse it is. I went almost 10 years of daily benzodiazepines use with a peak of 7-8 mg for 2-3 of those years and 3-4 mg the last year of use with tapering down to 2 mg rapidly and jumping off from there, also kicked a 1200-1500 mg of short acting synthetic opiate habit at the same time.
Luckily there is a clinic down the road with an amazing group that saved my life by putting me on gabapentin & on suboxone about 3 weeks after going cold turkey on benzodiazepines & a week into the opiates. After 5 months of suboxone treatment I went cold turkey at 8 mg. It has been almost 2 weeks and with a minimal use of organic poppy seeds I am feeling better every day.

Seizures freak me out. Never experienced it before, but i imagine that hitting a bong of 40x Salvia might be like a type of seizure, based on the mental descriptions of coming to
Ive never even seen someone have a seizure, but it scares the shit out of me. I heard they can make your eyes bleed

Depends on where the seizure occurs in the brain. Some seizures do not have a somatic component.
