So my husband worked at 12am on Sunday and came home at 7am. I was really exited he was home so early since he usually works on the weekends all day and me and kids stay home all day everyday since we only have one car. So when he got home in the morning I asked him if we can take the kids to the zoo and he said yes. Anyways we had a great time at the zoo. Came home relaxed and started watching a scary movie (Gerald’s game). Our son feel asleep on his lap and my daughter feel asleep on my lap. Then a bloody Scene came on and it was actually really gross and disturbing. After that he said he felt light headed and grossed out at what we had just watched. Then 4 seconds later he starts growling and nudging my arm and I looked at him and told him “you didn’t scare me” since we are watching a scary movie. But he continues and I shake him to stop. His head is dangling. He looks lifeless. His face is twitching and his arms are going crazy. I shake him violently to stop and I keep screaming “STOP STOP! WAKE UP STOP!!!!” Then he finally snaps out of it and asks “what happen?” I told him he just had a seizure! And he was so confused. I couldn’t stop shaking of how scared I was. I immediately called 911 and the ambulance was at our house in 7 mins. Anyways the doc said it wasn’t a seizure. He was just really dehydrated and sleep deprived and he said sometimes when people faint they can look like they are having a seizure but he said it would mostly likely won’t happen again. I can’t help but think this is my fault. I knew my hubby was tired from work. But I was just so excited he got home early I wanted to finally get out the house and do something fun with the kids ☹️ if I woulda just let him sleep when he got home this wouldn’t of happened 😢 I’m still so shook from what I saw. It’s like burnt into my memory his growl in and convulsions 😢

There was no way you could have known that would happen. Cut yourself some slack. But now that you know what can happen, make sure he gets enough rest. We have one vehicle too, I know what a bummer that can be. Maybe you can take the kids to do something small on your own once he's home? You will enjoy the time out, and hubby can sleep in total silence. It would do you all some good!

@sumria, the kids didn’t get to see it cos they were sleeping thank god. But yes he’s ok. As soon as he snapped out of it he was back to normal. As for me? Idk if I’m ok 😅

@bulmabreigh3, he was going too but I asked to go to the zoo. That’s why I feel like it’s my fault 😢

@njgriffin it wasn't your fault. One, you didn't know that would happen, two, if you knew that would have happened, you wouldn't have asked him to go out. You were just happy for a family day out, and I'm sure he was too.
Only thing girl, if you think he's using a seizure, don't shake, just lay him down somewhere flat and clear, if you can manage and just try to keep him safe.

@sweetsap88, I know next time (hopefully there won’t be a next time) I won’t shake him. I was just so scared I didn’t know what to do I just wanted him to stop 😢

@njgriffin you're braver than me, I'd be so scared and think he's possessed or something. It's good you called the ambulance, I'd have been like "it's only happened once and it's over now." Hope he's feeling better, and I hope you start to feel better too

@sweetsap88, he literally looked possessed. Like any creepy demonic movie. That’s why I was shaking him to stop. I was shaking of how scared I was 😢 and it’s hard for me to sleep at night I feel like I always checking on him and putting my hand on his chest to make sure he’s still breathing. I know this sounds a little dramatic but I feel traumatized 😅

I'm traumatized just thinking about it, lol. Just make sure he's drinking enough water and getting some sleep
