@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member, your Keppra (The Rage) is giving you anxiety. It's one of the side effects of Keppra and it didn't feel well with me along with depression, aggression, anger and dizziness. It's hard to trust anxiety meds are working when another drug is creating anxiety. Talk to your doctor about this and keep a diary of when it happens. Hope you will feel better soon.

And I'm thin but I also constantly am moving around I was called hyper when I was young. I would complete any task. But quickly be on a new task. Or be doing several tasks at once. I still do. So I think my body needs all it can get. Plus always fighting off something it needs the nourishment.

Hum I eat almost constantly but I kinda force myself or convince myself I forgot to eat. One or the other.

I do get tired most mornings, but I try to avoid going to sleep, cause if I wake up when it's time to eat I never feel like eating, what I have to before taking my medication, loss of appetite can have a effect on your seizures.
