Crying all night 😢

i have a question... is your side effect of your seizure meds causing you to have odd, weird, or scary dreams. and if so, for how long?

I had the oddest dream last night. Dreamed I had a seizure wet myself, ended up in the hospital, everything. My wife said no, no seizure, I was dry and at home, so I know it was a dream. has this ever happened to anyone else.

I was given Gabapentin for pain after surgery and I found that it did nothing but make me fall asleep which is why I may have been given the medication - who knows. Anyone out there has experience with Gabapentin as a pain killer??

I sometimes go weeks without a full nights rest, recently I have only been getting 1-2 hrs of sleep at a time and it recently caused me to have a seizure from lack of sleep.

It is now called Partial Awareness Seizures. If I pay attention to Triggers, do not have them on my meds and dosages.

a year ago, I got told from my mother that I was fired from my job that I loved doing. however my boss didn't have the guts to tell me to my face. I was heartbroken and upset. they got rid of me because they didn't want to have responsibly when I had seizures. they knew what they were getting into when they gave me the job. as my boss was firing me, she was telling me that I was great at my job and wishes that she kept me
in the last year, it has been really hard to not go to work every day.… read more

For the last month I've had bad dreams almost every night. They're anger fueled, graphic and gore-y. I don't watch horror movies or expose myself to said content. The dreams are very vivid. And my partner has told me that I've been speaking more in my sleep and waking him up by shaking him, even tough I'm completely still asleep. Does anyone else have this? What is happening?!
