I have Autism, PTSD, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, Tourette Syndrome, Alopecia, OCD, Optic Nerve Dysplasia, Hemianopsia, Traumatic Brain Injury, Bilateral Sensorineural Deafness, Brain Damage from Birth and Lesions on the Brain.
 
I've dealt with ADHD as well as Dyslexia and was once told I may have some auditory comprehension problems, but I don't think that was quite accurate.

I believe if you take a look at any other disability or disease that can make an individual feel scared and/or alone, you may see minor personality disorders appear. Things like social anxiety.

In many cases, though, I believe these disorders many of us share can be directly related to how epilepsy effects our brains or even quite the opposite. Epilepsy may be the effect of some of these other disorders.
