I have partial temporal lobe seizures as well. My primary symptom, which is visible from the outside that is, is that I lose the ability to use language. If I try talking, it just becomes a mangled mess of words in English and Swedish. I also can not understand what other people say.

It's a very peculiar feeling to be conscious and fully aware of what is happening, but still completely lose such a fundamental part of my brain functions.

Great point on being conscious and aware of it. For me the entire time, I knew something funky was going on, but I was wondering why. Like I said in the top comment, words and letters go in shambles, but I'm able to think and know that it was an odd event.

Sounds like what this poor woman experienced while on air?

Yes, I’ve seen that clip before and thought it might be what I’m having. IANAD though.
