Hi everyone, It's so great to read the heartfelt feedback from everyone. What a struggle!! I totally crashed emotionally on Monday. I could see no light at the end of the long tunnel ahead & felt everything was getting on top of me. I went to see my lovely advisor at Headway yesterday - she's such an amazing woman & told me it was fine & normal. She said she knew this was coming as I seemed to be doing 'too well'. She contacted the hospital & has arranged for the epilepsy & neuro team so see me ASAP as I am on Keppra for a seizure I had in June & this is supposed to be quite an intense drug - heard lots ofbad things about it. I went to see my doc this morning & he's put me on a low dose of Citalopram & said it should just get me back on a level & wants to check me in a weeks time. He said I am depressed but need to see neuro team re the Keppra... Let's see hey!! I hate being this way & just hope I can get some normality back in my life!! Crying at the drop of a hat is REALLY starting to do my head in! Thanks again everyone - big hugs! Lemonade hope you're doing better XX

Thanks - feel free to chat anytime!!

I'm a bit scared of anti depressants but I guess I'll just have to see what the doc says. I def need to do something it's putting so much strain on everything. I used to be so positive & now I just wonder why I bother! I had a clipping as the coiling didn't work. I understand where you're coming from & just feel I'm on an emotional roller coaster & worried about the future. Maybe the ADs will kick in & you'll start feeling on a better level, I'm sure you're family are there for you unconditionally.

Hi, I also had my SAH in April. I then had a seizure in June so I've been put on Keppra. Feel so depressed & angry - my mood swings are awful & I feel bad for my partner & friends. I'm not sure if its the Keppra that's effecting me this way or just the post trauma of everything. Are you on any meds? Sorry I haven't offered any help but I think it's good to know there are others in the same boat. Wishing you all the best. Going to make an appointment to see my doc tomorrow - need to get this sorted!! Take care T X
