Drug Rehabilitation that works

Question by bluepanda: mom used to be an alcoholic and had seizures. Sober for a few years but spaces out and repeats u sometimes…?
My mom used to be an alcoholic and had a few seizures in the past when she was coming down. She has been sober for a few years but once a year or so she will have these episodes where she spaces out, and can’t talk. When she is able to talk she will repeat you if you say something to her. She eventually clears up but it is extremely scary. It’s almost as if she is about to seize, but doesn’t. She doesn’t remember doing it and repeating you. Has anyone had any experience with this?

Hello,
One never is a ex alcoholic once a alcoholic always a alcoholic.
Sounds like she also has seizures.
Has she had the eeg done? A MRI to see if there is no growth that could be messing with her brain?
Alcohol and seizures do not mix.

Talk your mom into going and seeing the doctor, a neurologist if at all possible. Seizures are not a hundred percent understood and not all seizures show up on a eeg machines.
Wish your mom well!!
