seizure Auras

I have asked AI about auras. This is auras that people my envision when they are about to have a seizure. I thought I had never had one because I am usually sleeping when I have my seizures but. After seeing this I realize it is something I have seen. But I thought it was a side effect of my medication causing hallucinations. Which happens when I wake up. Sometimes. This is what AI had to say. 
Since auras can be complex and vary greatly from person to person, I can offer more detail on the common sensations people report.
✨ Understanding Seizure Auras
An aura is actually a focal aware seizure (previously called a simple partial seizure) that acts as a warning sign before a more significant seizure (like a tonic-clonic). Since you experience seizures in your sleep, you miss this initial phase.
Common auras fall into several categories:
| Category | Description and Feeling | Visual Depiction in Image |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Changes | Distorted vision, flashing lights, lines, spots, or complex hallucinations. Colors might be intense or muted. | The circular, fragmented rainbow and the light distortion in the room. |
| Sensory Changes | Strange smells (phantom odors like burnt toast or rubber), peculiar tastes, or feelings of numbness/tingling (pins and needles). | The blurred edges and darkened, dreamlike quality of the room. |
| Emotional/Cognitive | Sudden, intense feelings of fear, panic, déjà vu (feeling like you've been there before), or jamais vu (feeling like a familiar place is suddenly strange). | The hand reaching out and the sense of disorientation in the bedroom. |
| Autonomic | Physical sensations like a "rising feeling" in the stomach, racing heart, or sudden goosebumps. | The disrupting elements floating around the window and the intense focus on the light. |
Would you be interested in seeing an image that focuses more on the non-visual aspects, like the strange emotional or sensory feelings people describe?
