I had a seizure about 8 years ago when I was 8 and I cant remember if my Mom told me, while we were having a conversation about it recently, if i died for a bit or something like that. I might be sounding retarded but im just curious. If you found out that you died for a little bit it would make you feel really... idk some weird feeling.

It is uncommon to have a seizure (?status epilecticus?) lasting that long and most people who have a seizure lasting more than a few minutes are taken to the ED where they are closely monitored. I don't think u can die a "bit" especially with that much activity going on in your brain but u could find out if u saw a doctor at the time or went to the ED. I think it's great that u are alive and apparently well after having a serious seizure. Best of luck.

I agree with Monet. I don't believe a seizure can last that long without SERIOUS brain damage. It is possible that you died for a moment. This is much more common than people think. Many of the people I have spoken to that have died really didn't want to come back.

i think if you wer to have a 25 minute seizure there would be no reviving you or you would have at least suffered permanent brain damage. i have epilepsy and anything over 7 minutes will usually result in brain damage so consider yourself very luck on top of weird.
