Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It might not be seizure if you do not have the history. Moreover, the seizure attack is medical emergency wherein patient looses the consciousness, and the type of seizure even matters the most so it could be the panic attack or more precisely it could be hysteric attack.

Most of the time, users do not give any information about their age and gender and this limitation ties our hand to give proper advice. I would appreciate if you send your queries along with information about your age and gender.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
