The reason I read this today is that one of my several mental issues is something very similar to epilepsy. (My neurologist has told me it is not exactly epilepsy!)
So I liked it in that I got the chance to review what a tonic-clonic seizure was as opposed to a myoclonic one - however, I very much so dislike knowing that has happened to me several times, and I've had a nightmare of a time finding a medication I don't have adverse reactions to which works for me. This one has been okay, as long as I am sure to play Carrie Nation the rest of my life and avoid alcohol like it is poison. I suppose I could discuss the possibility of special-occasion vodka with the doctor, but...
I am not well in the head. I have a doctor's note.
