Welcome, Brokenfriend! I also have bipolar disorder.
In addition to being a fairly regular visitor here, I did visit a couple Neurotalk forums a few times in the past. Back then, I had a period of severe migraines, including Silent migraines. Also, some doctors believed I was experiencing seizure activity. One neurologist even diagnosed me as having Simple Partial Seizures. Luckily, both my migraines and suspected seizure activity stopped. Perhaps because of the anticonvulsants I still take (for my bipolar disorder) as well as some mental "healing", of sorts, lifestyle change, and use of coping tools. But I know I'm lucky, since many struggle without such relief.
