I've now gone off Clobazam and am taking Fycompa the last 2 weeks. Side effects are depression, irritability and loss of balance. So far so good, but more seizures. I will continue in the meantime and hopefully things will settle.

An update... At long last I am titrating down from Fycompa 4mg. to 2mg and feel just the difference in dosage has made me not as angry, depressed and miserable. One more week to go then off the medication. It is amazing how a medication can affect one's thinking pattern and more. Sending love to allxxx

Not been to good for a while, the slightest thing or memory sets me off into a crying stage which only makes me feel worse.

Still only getting "cat naps" instead of "proper" sleep, so never seem to have any energy.

My acute depression is continual and pressurised by the ever present loneliness and lack of companionship and the thought of having to do the same thing, every lonely day, only makes the final day even more inviting.

Lizzie when we loss loved ones some people are expecting to grieve in the same way with each bereavement, and are even more upset because they dont. this can be for many reasons, for example it could be the age of the loved one, how close you were to a certain person, how well they physically or emotionally knew a loved one. or lastly some of us may never have met a loved one for many reasons. or if physical events had taken place ,and a loved one could not be viewed by family and friends

this happened me was because, my son and i parted with bad blood between us, and when his baby daughter was born , and died age 50 minutes i was banned from attending her service or internment, her name was Rebecca Jade, but i called her Becky, and i bought her a small headstone and i go to her grave at least once a month with fresh flowers. i will always love my grandaughter, but possibly not as much as my Angel wife or son, who took his own life.?
