Hi Michelle. I'm going to guess that your AEDs were/are largely responsible for making you feel tired all the time.
 
Hi Michelle: Welcome To T He Board !!!!!!!!!

What Meds Do You Take?????? I Have Had Epilepsy Since I Am 11 I Am Going On 52 Next Month. The Past 2 Yrs I Ran Out Of Meds And Slowly Added Homeopathy,till There's No Aeds Left. After 49 Yrs Its Weird To Be Without Meds. But A Good Weird.

:hello: Michelle,

Welcome to CWE! I noticed in your
profile you're currently taking Depakote
ER.

And tiredness is a problematic issue
and common complaint:

Depakote ER


Scroll about half way down the page and
you will see the side effects of the meds.
If this has been persistent, then have you
ever mentioned this to your Neurologist or
Epileptologist? If not, you should!

Hope this helps!
