I have been told I am not near as lively as I once was, that my personality has changed and that I now walk like a zombie, I get very irritable after one

@trinalee I understand exactly what you mean. No harm in venting. ❀

Melissa,
I feel like a different person now. I don't care as much about things like before. However I think I'm on the wrong meds. I have to be careful not to snap off. Ugh waiting for next Dr appointment. My memory is bad now and has been. I think seizures did that. I can't remember when things happened. Like yesterday or last week or a few days ago, like that.

I barely talk after having seizures.

Seizures take a lot out of a person, after I have one I get drained of energy, I am tired! The bigger the seizure the more I sleep! I believe my memory is bad due to seizures and all my meds! Taking antidepressant meds has left me feeling numb and hollow, no extreme feeling, such as excitement or sadness...some days I wanna just stop taking my pills, I am tired of it...but I know that when I even lower my meds a little I have gran mal seizures...just venting, I am sure everyone feels like this...
