I sure can relate to what you're going through! It is maddening, because the symptoms feel very similar. My epileptologist has diagnosed me with E and psychological seizures. As a result, I have been diagnosed with DID-NOS by my pDoc.

If other people are around, and can describe what happened to the doctor, then it goes to the epi Dr. If it's just me (alone), then it goes to the psychiatric doctor. A lot of the time I am alone, so I can't get verification in most cases. It is incredibly frustrating for me!

My epi Dr. has told me that it is not uncommon for those with E to also have non-epileptic (psychological) seizures. Trust me, that "fact" does not comfort me at all. It's very difficult to know what's psychological and what's physiological. Gets me all frustrated again just mentioning it now!

Best wishes!
