Cint...
I totally did over simplify things with my shower remark. Of course showers can be dangerous too. I shouldn't have made such a light hearted remark! I have no idea what it must be like to have a tonic clonic. I can only imagine and I think it must be a hell of alot scarier than the simple partials I have with maybe a second or two lost. I'm sorry about the burns you suffered. It sounds like it was a painful and long process and I'm sure you still have scars.
Depression is a beast. I will mention it to my neurologist but I'm so used to coping and just living with the feeling. My family Dr. refused to give me any anti-depressants since the ones he knew to prescribe would increase my seizures.
My journey is just beginning with being treated as somebody with physiological and not just psychological symptoms and sometimes I'm afraid they're going to change their minds if I'm too pushy! LOL
Thank you for sharing your story. Not being able to drive and having young children is a challenge. I do have lots of support fortunately. Just like you did. It sounds like you were even more isolated than I am.
I have to remember that really I am a lucky person because there are plenty of people out there who suffer through alot more than I do.
