Stress plus trying to find the right medication for my seizures

Is anyone here using Xcopri?
My husband has been on it since May 2025. He takes 1 tablet once a day at bedtime.
Prior to Xcopri, another doctor had him on 1000mg of Keppra twice daily. He experienced fatigue and sleepiness on that dosage of Keppra. Physician did not want to change the dosage. He changed physicians.

I was recently started on anti seizure meds because of a seizure in August. The first med, lamotrigine, caused a rash on my feet so they stopped it right away but I tolerated it well otherwise. This new med is Keppra and I took a smaller dose than the Dr said to start with and I still can’t tolerate it I was so mean to my family, I can’t remember most of the couple days I was on it. I could function and think for about 2 hours and the rest of the day I was either asleep or deeply fatigued. I was starting to feel suicidal with it was well. I was on Wellbutrin before my seizure happened and now I can’t be on anything for depression and the meds all seem to cause more depression. I’m not sure my doctor understands my concerns and it’s causing more stress for me making my MS to flare up. Has anyone been on a medication that doesn’t cause more depression? I can’t switch doctors without a referral but they are so tired of me complaining.
