Hi Andrew,
Yowza. You've got a lot on your plate. I know the feeling.> >it is bipolar disorder and epilepsy. I dont dispute the epileptic component (complex partial seizures), but I still believe I am depressed > >
You ARE depressed when you're bi polar! It's such an individualistic disease with sort of a different personality for each person. I am
bi polar with more depressive tendencies than manic. But my diagnosis fits in with the wide spectrum that is manic depression/ bi polar disorder. So you may very well be bi polar. But I would ask your doctor why he has diagnosed you as such.
Your "ramblings" caught my eye because I have felt the same way; even thought the same thoughts. You really, really are not alone. (And I also know my saying that doesn't make things any brighter).
Good luck!
Sarah
