She is a high stress young lady, and it's possible that these recent seizures (or seizure-like activity) have been stress related. But the majority of her falls over the years have been clearly physical - over-exertion, standing too long, bending-reaching, sitting-standing, over-heated or inadequately hydrated. She's also bonked her head on sidewalks or blacktop a LOT of times over the years, including twice in the week previous to the seizures.
Over-exertion is also a type of stress. I have a stress related illness that can occur due to physical or psychological stress. Even stressful things that I enjoy, such as travel, can cause an attack. I had an attack when I found out my son was in a car accident so it can clearly be brought on by psych/emotional events as well.
Stress is a strange beast. Our bodies react to different types of stress and even things we don't label as stressful.
I hope your daughter is feeling better and can find a solution or learn to manage this.
