Hi everyone   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #396 of 894 |
Hello there! I'd like to say that this is a great way to feel better about my
epilepsy: knowing
that there are others out there like me. I had my first seizure in June of this
year, and
another one two weeks ago, at work. Then another one this past thursday. Is it
normal to
feel extremely depressed after an episode? And is it normal to be exhausted
afterwards?
I'm on Lamictal and have been for about 5 weeks now. I'm almost through the
starter pack.
I feel horrible every time I take it...I know that I need it but does that get
better?
Thanks for letting me bend your ears.
