Hi loopinlouie I'm epileptic to i was diagnosed back in 2008 since I left school i have been for interviews for numerous jobs and they have all turned me down because of my seizures. I have applied for esa twice in the past year and have been told I'm not eligible as there are no signs that I'm unfit for work. What really has annoyed me is that my mate is on it for depression it really is ridiculous as he can get over that as us epileptics are stuck with our illness for life and its also a life threatening illness.
