AEDs and dreams

Speber, I know what you're going through. I have taken two of the medicines you mentioned and I still take one of them.

I've never been much of a dreamer and haven't noticed any change since I started taking anti-epileptic drugs...Keppra & Lamictal. As for the night seizures: recently I've started having what I think are myoclonic seizures. It happens right as I am falling asleep, in that state between asleep and awake, and my legs will jerk, just once and I wake up. I've never had t/c's in my sleep (thankfully).

I have been on carbamamzepine for approximately 20 years. I have weird dreams. Sometimes they are vivid. I always try to find meaning to my dreams. I figure it is my brains way of communicating with me. I do have sad dreams as well as vivid dreams. I very seldom have good dreams.
