Characteristic Signs Of Temporal Lobe Seizures

A temporal lobe seizure starts in the brain's temporal lobes, the areas responsible for emotion processing and short-term memory encoding. The symptoms of this type of seizure are often related to the temporal lobe's normal functions. Patients may experience strange feelings without any external reason, such as fear, deja vu, or euphoria. Some individuals are aware of what is happening during the seizures, though intense seizures can cause some to be unresponsive. The cause of these seizures is often unknown, though they sometimes arise because of a defect or scarring in the temporal lobe.
