AB Three  of  the  most  common  neurological  paroxysmal  disorders  in  childhood  are  headache,  sleep  disorders,  and  epilepsy.  As  these  subjects  are  examined  thoroughly  in  other  chapters  in  this  book,  they  will  not  be  covered  here.  Instead,  this  chapter  will  cover  non-epileptic  neonatal  events,  breath-holding  spells,  syncope,  paroxysmal  dyskinesia,  episodic  ataxia,  tics,  panic  disorder,  and  psychogenic  non-epileptic  seizures  in  children.
