Description
I have epilepsy. Sometimes after a seizure, I'll write down things in my diary. I can't get the words or metaphors together to describe just what coming out of a seizure sequence, or going in to one. Sometimes strong visuals, even tastes and smells sweep through my mind.
This started as a photo I took on one of my last visits to Santa Monica Pier, in early 2018.
I had a seizure in November; quite a nasty one while I was at work. I wrote that the world unraveled as I fell unconscious. Messing with some photoshop actions, I found a combination that closely resembles what I sometimes see, as I'm waking up usually.
