. . is a classic Temporal Lobe Epilepsy seizure. . .as are many frightening, nearly "psychedelic" perceptions, sometimes called Big & Small. . .feeling at a strange literal distance from everything. And one is aware, one does not blank out. It can feel like you must be crazy. . .but it's only TLE, and nothing to be overly concerned with if the symptoms are managealbe, as are mine, by a fairly innocuous med like Neurontin.
TLE often does not show up on EEG. . .An epileptologist is a better bet than plain neuro.
Good luck,
