Health Psychedelics and risk of seizures

Hi everyone,

Some years back I suffered multiple grand mal seizures due to drug abuse, addiction that I today am free from.

While these seizures were caused by benzo withdrawal and tramadol od, these past experiences can still make me anxious and turn a fun or productive trip on LSD into something else where I suddenly start to worry that the LSD might trigger another seizure - this without any actual knowledge if this is a thing or not.

I can usually calm my self down within a reasonable time span if this occurs, but still, it is something that often can ruin the rest of the trip for me.

So I would like to ask if anyone can inform me on this subject and possibly point me to any available data.

I do not think I am sensitive to flashing lights or such classical triggers for seizures, mine were self-inflicted medically. I am however on the careful side and only use psychedelics at home or in nature in a calm setting. I like gardening on it, especially 😊
 
I had a seizure from benzo WD. I don't believe it changed any thresh hold I may have to experience another seizure. I've tripped dozens of times since.
