the story:
one night i took OD pills and such, when i had to wake up for school, i threw up and passed out
my mom took me to the hospital and the doctors said i had a seizure (no one knows about the pills) and its because of my bad sleeping habits (i usually get 2-3 hours of sleep on weekdays, then crash for 10+ hours on weekends)
i think the doctors are lying. now my parents wont stop bugging me about the sleeping. i've stopped with the pills, so please no "dont do drugs" lectures please and thank you =]

My dad had a seizure in his sleep. It was probably the scariest thing ever. Seizures can come from just about anything. About 80% of people will have one seizure in their life, then never have one again! Weird, I know lol. Depending on the doctor, if it's a neurologist it's ok for them to be talking about a seizure, but most of the time the doctor is wrong.
Just start getting more sleep (8 hours) and hopefully everything will turn out Ok.

The doctors aren't lying, I'm sure it's because of the pills, not your sleep habits. I should say, however, that sleep is very important, and 2-3 hours is not enough. You need to get regular sleep, or it certainly can affect your health.

Bad sleeping habits and drugs do promote unhealthy life. Do you like to play Russian Roulette.

It might, sometimes when I don't get enough sleep, I start having seizure-like tremors in my hands, as a result of my brain not getting enough sleep.
