Wondered how long became "regular selves" again? after seizures, I feel really depressed and down for few days after a seizure, (almost like a scared feeling), don't know if it's because of having to take clonazepam if feel any warnings or if start partial, anyone have these feelings, either with meds or seizures themselves? Anyone get side effects on Clobazam, thank you

I’ve had good results with Clobazam, no negative side effects. Been on it for years.

It a controlled substance , any medicine like that has the tendency to get your body depending on them but that is like with all medications for seizures that is why we have to be weaned off then

Research the history of Clobazam. It's quite interesting. You'll see Lennox-Gastaut syndrome in your research (which I do not have). But I am certainly having several different types of seizures and my little 5mg of Clobazam at night (along with Keppra 2X day) seems be be doing well. I tried 10mg and it was tooooo much for my body. I don't like the Zombie effect.
