There are many types of seizures which can affect your behavior, have mild to severe symptoms, and some do not cause convulsions which may be generalized seizures which happens when the nerve cells on both of your brain misfires or focal seizures which happens when an electrical activity remains in just a limited part of your brain such as, but not limited to the following:
