HSE is a mental disorder that I was diagnosed with after having a seizure at work and many other seizures that followed. My neurologist told me not to worry as it will go away in approximately 6 months. This was almost 3 years ago.
HSE is affecting me greatly. My memory is shot, limiting my vocabulary, comprehension, creativity.. not to mention how it is wrecking my work. I can't remember conversations with people, can't remember names, faces, passwords, PIN's, phone numbers, etc.. I feel afraid of stepping out of the house in case I have an aura (where I space-out) or have a seizure.
I can list many, many other ways I have been affected, but the one that scares me the most is the depression that comes with it all.
I would like to hear from anyone who has been through or going through HSE and how they are handling it. appreciate it, thank you.

Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by inflammation of the brain (encephalitis). Common symptoms include headaches, fevers, drowsiness, hyperactivity, and/or general weakness. The disorder may have some symptoms similar to those associated with meningitis, such as a stiff neck, altered reflexes, confusion, and/or speech abnormalities. Skin lesions usually are not found in association with herpes simplex encephalitis. Herpes simplex encephalitis is caused by a virus known as herpes simplex virus (HSV).

There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause sores around the mouth (herpes labialis) and on the genitals (genital herpes). Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Cold sores sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal in several days to 2 weeks.
The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid—such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.

I got diagnosed with herpes type 2 about seven years ago, when I was still in college and had a stupid 1 night stand. I know a lot of girls will say this but I swear I never did that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and, suddenly, it seemed like I was going to have to live with the consequences for the rest of my life. The worst part was feeling I could never date guys again. After all, who wants to go out with a girl who has sores around her "you know what" area? But after a friend shared this video https://tr.im/AZ2Uv everything changed. Not only was I able to remove all traces of the herpes virus from my system in less than three weeks, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so blessed to write that just last week, in front of everyone in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!! This program gave me back the chance to be happy, and to experience true love again. Now I want to help by sharing this with others.

Please discuss this with a medical professional! Encephalitis survivors are often left with a chemical imbalance. Anti-anxiety (anti-depression) medication is an effective treatment for this problem. You're not alone.
