What do seizures feel like?

What do seizures feel like? Some seizures cause the body to jerk and shake (a “fit”), while others cause problems like loss of awareness or unusual sensations. They typically pass in a few seconds or minutes. Seizures can occur when you’re awake or asleep. Sometimes they can be triggered by something, such as feeling very tired.
