LD and all who have commented. ....what a huge weight off my shoulders when I read all these comments because sometimes they are all me.

This has made me feel so much better after reading this, on Keppra I feel anxious, short tempered and angry and I feel depressed a lot of the time. Recently I've felt especially down and I felt like it was just me who feels like this but it's great to read that others feel the same and it's not unreasonable. Makes it easier to live with knowing you're not feeling it alone

I just thought it was me. I never said anything to the drs. I just try to think more positive and keep going.

Keppra controls the seizures...Yeah...but I agree it makes me irritable; fearful; and isolated. I try so hard to fight it! Dr. says I need DBT therapy??? Hard to find a good Dr.

Yes. I know that it's been 2 1/2 weeks since I had those 4 seizures and been on Keppra or Levetiracetam. So that could be a factor in my mood. But, I feel really anxious, jittery, easily irritable and emotional. I'm also sleepy.
