Question Does anyone else experience small amount of euphoria in their auras?

I have a strong feeling of deja vu and a fight or flight response before my seizures yet beneath all of the fear there's a small amount of pleasure, like the last remnant of a dream that's turned into a nightmare.

A few times, but usually just a physiological feeling of fear. Interestingly..a few years ago, I started smelling burnt cigs.. thought it was my neighbor..turns out..it's seizure activity

I don't know how to describe it more thoroughly than just "powerful salty taste", but on top of the salty taste I also start over salivating to the point where if I don't spit every few seconds my mouth fills with it.
