- He'll probably be able to explain it to you.

- Ok.

Mom?

Yes.

Not right now, Thelma.

Can't you see that he's eating?

You!

Go downstairs and draw something, ok?

There you go.

Mattias?

Mattias!

Where's Mattias?

Did you take him? Don't do that.

Where did you put him?

- I don't know.

- Tell me where you put him.

Tell me where you put him, Thelma!

Thelma, where did you put him?

Quiet. Trond!

Trond! He's here!

Be careful. Yes.

One more time. Could you open your eyes?

Breathe in and out.

Good!

Could you close your eyes?

Open up your eyes,

then breathe a bit faster.

Breathe in.

Notice how you're filling up your lungs.

Keep it in. And breathe.

Good.

We're ready to begin.

To provoke a seizure,

we have to -

- go to some rather unpleasant

places.

If it gets too uncomfortable,

just say so.

Ok.

How are you now, leading up to the exams?

Are you stressed?

Yes, quite so.

It's alright for you to answer.

You may also nod or shake your head.

Think about the things I'm asking you,

and let the thoughts come to you.

You said you had a breakdown

as a child.

When you were six.

Do you remember any of it?

Do you remember anything about

your parents from back then?

- It must have been difficult for you.

- Yes. No, I don't remember much.

You moved to the city

not long ago.

Have you gotten any friends?

What about boys?

If this is painful, try not

to block it.

Is there someone in particular?

Perhaps it's not a boy?

Close your eyes.

Breathe a bit faster.

Faster. Good.

Breathe even faster.

Hello?

Hello?

Open your eyes.

Watch the light.

Breathe faster. That's good.

I can tell you're thinking about something painfull.

Don't ignore it. Reach into it.

Go deeper.

Breathe faster.

Breathe in and out.

Lord, take it away from me. Get rid of these thoughts.

Take it away from me.

Hey, it's Anja. Please leave a message.

I'm forwarding a bit here.

Watch this. Nothing happens.

If it was epilepsy,

there would've been a significant change.

So it's not epilepsy?

No, it's not.

What is it then?

What is happening to me?

It fits with so-called non-epileptic seizures.

Ok?

These seizures could be the result

of something else.

The body reacts to something being repressed.

- I don't understand.

- It could be because of stress.

It could be some sort of trauma.

Lots of different things.

But I've been looking a bit at

the genetic systems.

Your grandma had a history of

mental health problems.

- Are you saing that I'm mentally ill?

- Not at all.

- Am I crazy, like grandma?

- No...

Calm down.

I'm not sure what she suffered from.

But she was admitted for a long period of time.

You probably know more about that
