That's funny how as I was about to post to the rocket surgeon a thorough reply, it was mysteriously wiped out as I hit the preview botton!!!!
I would simply say 2 things now:
1/-according to the definition of the world seizure below, that is not what I had.

2.
a sudden attack of illness, especially a stroke or an epileptic fit.
"the patient had a seizure"
synonyms:
convulsion, fit, spasm, paroxysm; More

I never had any such things as "spasms", "fit", much less "convulsions".
So NO!! that is not it.

2/- you cannot include the words "vision" and "not genuine" in the same sentence.  If it's a vision it is Genuine. Just because you are not the one who had it does not mean that it never took place.
Thanks for the Addendum, it merits further investigating.

I said a type of seizure. What I was referring to was an event from a condition called Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. It is not like the Grand or Petit Mal seizure, which you defined, above. The type I am describing does not reach to the motor centers, and therefore does not cause any form of physical reaction. A "seizure" in the broader sense is any time the electrical pathways in the brain go awry, and not all parts of the brain cause muscle spasms.

Here is an article summarizing the "God Helmet" phenomena and the articles that have been written about it.

And yes I can include the words "vision" and "not genuine" in the same sentence. A vision that is not genuine is called a "hallucination". As anyone who has taken LSD (or a host of other psychoactive chemicals) can attest, the neurochemistry of the brain is manipulable to the point that we can indeed see things that are not there, or see things that are actually there in a way that is a false interpretation (the "talking to plants" trope) by the brain of the sensory input received. You should realize that all chemicals which work on our brains, from THC to opiates, are able to do so because there are receptors in our brains for those chemicals, and those receptors are there because our bodies make chemicals that manipulate our brains on their own... for instance, the word endorphins (the "reward" chemicals released after exercise, sex, etc., which cause the "runner's high" and our pleasant post-coitus unconsciousness) comes from a mashup of "endogenous morphine", meaning morphine produced from within our genome. We also have endocannabinoids that THC is similar enough to that it can make us "high" by using those same receptors. Why do I bring all this up?

Because you have counter-attacked us for providing information about how your brain works, when your information was wrong, rather than looking up for yourself what we were talking about. Why did you do that? You apparently do not want to understand how your brain actually works, a step you MUST take if you wish to figure out if something is wrong, a step you MUST take before you can possibly begin to feel better.

We would like to help you. Truly we would, as the volume of replies you received should make clear. But don't bite the hand that feeds you, especially after you asked for food.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost

I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
