Other factors that may trigger a seizure are hormonal fluctuations, disrupted sleep cycles, illness or fever, excessive use or withdrawal from alcohol to name a few.1

Fast Facts:

  • Studies indicate that emotional stress, anxiety or anger may trigger seizures.1
  • Seizures may be provoked by external stimulus (flashing lights) in condition known as reflex epilepsy.1
  • Auditory stimuli are less common triggers of seizures.1
