Kepprage?


Can't wait to go to the MD tomorrow Really hoping that this is due to my meds!!!! Can't deal with this crap anymore! Hate feeling angry at nothing which makes me angry at me which makes me sad, then try and make myself happy and then I'm close to okay then suddenly something pisses me off then it starts all over. I'm trying to be "normal" but even the people who are the most understanding in my life have had enough. I locked myself in my bedroom this weekend and barrickaded the door couldn't deal feel think I'm losing control of everything. Life is throwing all sorts of little problems at me that most of the world deals with but with each one I feel like something is going to explode. My work, the car, my ex, my eyes, my appartment, the school, its just one stupidity after another and I don't remeber how to be nice any more.

When I started on Keppra, I didn't get the moodiness for a couple of months..but there it kicked in. I am usually very quite, keep to myself...but for several weeks, I went thru the "I am going to kick someone's butt" phase. It was kepprage for me and I really relied on my faith to get me thru. My neurologist had told me that he could change my meds, but after I read side effects of other drugs, I decided to touch it out so I could stay on Keppra.
Changing your drug is always an option

Are you taking any vitamin B6 supplements? It's known to help curb kepprage.

Mr B beat me


to the suggestion of the B6. However, you may to consider some other things to--some power walking, yoga, martial arts, listening to some meditational music......to divert your moodiness and work it out. Focus on something else.....these things will take some effort to do, and hopefully help you.
