I’ve Always Had Epilepsy And As I Got Older I Learned About The Mental Illnesses I Struggle With So I Go To Therapy For It

I dissociate a lot. Even before I found out about my mental illnesses. Does anyone else struggle with this. Can it be the epilepsy or the mental illnesses or both? Anyone go through this too?
