Losing sense while doing something
My nephew sometimes while playing or doing something else loses control. His eyes suddenly go up (aankhein chadna) and whatever he is doing continues wihout thinking for 4-5 min. If he is lightning matchstick, he forgots to put it down and burn his own finger and don't even realise it. Same thing happens if he walking, sharpening pencil or writing (start drawing random stuff instead of writing words). He has never had any problem before and this started 6-7 months back. Earlier these episodes used to last for 1-2 minutes but now he remains in this state for 5-7 minutes. Please help.
