"a doctor first diagnosed me as bipolar in 2007. my mania was out of control from about 2009-2014. incidentally, i had two seizures in 2014 and started taking keppra. i have noticed the keppra has also made a difference in controlling mania. i hope this works for others also. i had to mention it because i would not have taken keppra had it not been for the seizures. i have not had any bad side effects with keppra."
