Some of the medications give you a very short temper. Of the 15 or 16 I've been on there were two which really did that to me. Also, if the med is making you overtired, most people become angry easily when overtired, not getting enough sleep.

I understand you on this one. A bit ago I had made a comment to my wife about how sometimes
i get confused about the easiest thing. she replied What is wrong with you. I asked her if she ever read anything about what someone with epilepsy might experience. the reply
No

(sigh)

I take Kepera and I feel fine I never get angry. I also take Topamax and Vitamin D. I also pray everyday and night to have Jesus Christ be with everyone and keep us all safe and healthy always and forever in our hearts and souls forever. Amen ❤️👐🏻🙏🏻.

There are certain medications that can cause anger, Keppra or Levetiracetam(another name it goes by) is a big one. If you are having anger issues or negative thoughts, talk to your neurologist right away. I take Citalopram to curb my anger issues and irritability while taking Keppra.

I’ve had temporal lobe epilepsy for 33 years that has given me suicidal thoughts along with the feelings that I’d rather have died at birth like doctors said was going to happen
