Loss of Time

Absence seizures can be difficult to spot. People who are prone to this type of seizure may be accused of daydreaming or not paying attention because they're staring blankly into space. However, it's still a seizure, and it's just as involuntary as any other type.

This type is common in children, but people of all ages can have absence seizures. If a person is frequently losing time, even without noticeable symptoms, it's a good idea to talk with a doctor.3‘Epilepsy - Symptoms.’ Nhs.uk, 23 Oct. 2017, www.nhs.uk/conditions/epilepsy/symptoms
