Aura
During the first few seconds of a grand mal seizure, you might experience a complex or simple condition known as an aura. This would cause you to experience several abnormal sensations, such as anxiety, nausea, vertigo, or a specific smell. They are triggered when your nervous system is affected by the seizure. If you are familiar with experiencing seizures before, then it can be easy to notice this warning sign and seek medical attention before the seizure starts worsening. [6]
