TheGman6072 Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 I got my hands on Keppra finally. I will be posting updates on this topic. Today was my first day with Keppra and i felt a little bit of ups and downs but it is only my first day so I'm not going to blame everything on the Keppra. I feel sedated (but I've had zero caffeine today), I felt a little angry earlier but barely and I don't know why, I left class cuz i felt uncomfortable being there. I was kinda tired but that probably was because I only got 4 hours of sleep last night. But when I went to lunch and met with one of my friends, I perked awake. I looked at my reflection and I am no longer seeing that demonic version of myself in the mirror. When my friend was talking to me I was a little too busy looking around. I have been able to do things without suddenly forgetting what the fuck I was doing. Hopefully this works but right now I still feel fat from normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyindubai Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Sounds like a promising start.. are you taking anything else with the keppra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Maybe i will but I don't know yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Day 2 : I am still calm but in certain environments, I was a little uncomfortable. i am able to think more clearly, able to have conversations without immediately forgetting what the other person said. Talking is a little difficult even though I can say things clearly in my head but talking out loud I kept making mistakes and stuttering. I'm mildly autistic so I may react differently to medications than other people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onelovez Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Aspergers syndrom? I have heard something about it. There seems to be connection between aspergers and visual snow syndrome (possibly hppd). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Yes I have Aspergers. But it is so mild that there almost is no diagnosis for me. I never had and anythibg wrong with me before I did drugs. But since I have Aspergers, I heard it made my chances of getting dp/dr from drugs higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Just took a nap. Woke up in cold sweat probably the worst cold sweat ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyindubai Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Sounds like your body is adjusting to the medcine, but there are several positive effects.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Yes the good effects outnumber the bad effects it seems like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Today I skipped but I still feel it a little bit. Today was pretty much the same as day 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Apparently this doesn't mix well with caffeine. Fucking uncomfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2015 Day 3 : I skipped yesterday so today is day 3. this time felt better than the first 2 times. It's amazing how I'm able to think more clearly again but I'm still not completely back to the way I used to be. Still had brief moments of discomfort but not as bad as before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 so this morning I woke up after a horrible realistic dream. I started crying a little bit (yeah go ahead and judge me) cuz it was like an entire flashback of the past year and a half since I first got HPPD and it was horrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Today was officially the last day. I'm not going to continue taking Keppra. I was having psycho thoughts. I was imagining things that were not really going to happen. I was thinking that some dude was going to come into the classroom and attack me and then I was called to the office because of some truancies and I thought that something was going to happen to some of my friends and that they were using me to get to them. These were all unrealistic and psychotic thoughts. I am back to normal now but that was just bizarre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umit Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Your best chanced to recover are adding sports i told you before there is no easy way to recover buth if you continue taking it the most side effects wil disapear in 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGman6072 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Great to know I should have done more than a 5 day trial. I get excersize every day but next time I get an appointment, I might either continue with Keppra or try getting lomerizine but if that doesn't happen, I will try to get Prozac but Prozac might make the visuals work but is known to help dp/dr. I was just crying my eyes out like 20 minutes ago cuz it really sucks how one of my opportunities to recover is gone hopefully I can get it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guyindubai Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Sorry to be harsh but I doubt the keppra made you this paranoid and scared... Usually dirty street drugs make those sympots kick in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
