Right now, the global economy is suffering a grand mal seizure of slack demand and high unemployment.

If you have epilepsy, there is an instance of billions of brain cells, or at least millions, discharging in pathological concert.

And I will mention that I actually developed temporal lobe seizures a number of years ago, but it was during the time I was writing my last book, and some people say that book is quite different.

There is also a rare thing called temporal lobe epilepsy, and sometimes, if one has this, one may feel oneself transported back to a time and place in the past.

I do have to say, somebody I read recently that van Gogh wasn't really necessarily psychotic, that he might have had temporal lobe seizures, and that might have caused his spurt of creativity, and I don't I suppose it does something in some part of your brain.

And then, we fast forward to about 1932, when three Italian psychiatrists, who were largely treating depression, began to notice among their patients, who were also epileptics, that if they had an epileptic a series of epileptic fits, a lot of them in a row the depression would very frequently lift.
