If you don't feel you'd be competitive for medical school and/or don't have the time and opportunity to build up those credentials (and I would consider med school an alternative to a doctoral psych program, not a backup, to be sure), there's always the NP or PA route. Income would be better than most masters-level routes, but you'd likely need to pursue significant additional training to be competent in psychotherapy (or perhaps other areas in which you might be interested, such as research). And testing may never be a viable option.
On the plus side, you'd likely see plenty of bipolar (and plenty of personality disorders misdiagnosed as bipolar).
