Stereotyped attacks with an aura of intense fear, then loss of awareness, followed by post-ictal deficits (transient aphasia, headache) are a focal seizure with impaired awareness, typically of temporal lobe origin.
- Panic attacks do not cause loss of awareness with post-ictal aphasia; the fear here is the aura.
- Absence seizures have no aura and no post-ictal phase.
