I started Keppra about two weeks ago and I’ve been having a really hard time adjusting. I was prescribed 1000mg but have been taking half doses so far to ease into it.
I also have a history of major depressive disorder (since 2019). I was on and off Lexapro in the past but haven’t taken it in about a year because I had been doing better.
I was diagnosed with epilepsy two months ago, and between that and starting medication, I feel completely overwhelmed. My mood has taken a noticeable hit and I’ve been struggling a lot day-to-day.
I’m 21 and this has been a lot to process. It honestly feels so draining to even think about, and I’m having a hard time figuring out how to cope with everything. especially because every time I start doing better and moving forward with life there’s a hundred more setbacks.
i would really appreciate any and all advice.
