The anticonvulsants all deplete magnesium - depression is associated with magnesium deficiency. Get your magnesium levels up and you won't get depressed, won't have a lot of anziety and will sleep better. You will be less irritated as well as less aggressive. Magnesium is also used to cure headaches - migraines are a symptom of magnesium deficiency and can be alleviated with magnesium.
In fact most of the symptoms of the people here on this groups are symptoms of magnesium deficiiency - which to me is not surprising as you all take drugs everyday that deplete magnesium.

My wife says she can always tell when I am going to have a bad aura during the day because of how I am feeling. I also get extremely irritable, have really bad headaches, and generally feel overstimulated all of the time.
