Q: Zonegran "thoughts Unusual to You" Side Effect.

I have been taking Zonegran for about 5 years now, but never associated it with the personality changes I had, because I was put on it in a mental health facility. I just assumed I was "getting better." But now everything is getting worse. I'm so depressed for no reason. I can feel it in my body. I'm afraid to call people. I don't care about anyone. Even when I was depressed before medication I always ALWAYS cared way too much about people. Now I don't really care at all. All of my motivation for everything is gone. I can't draw, paint or write like I used to. I've been depressed on and off for the past 7 years, but prior to the medication it was always because of my reaction to external sources. This is different. Everything outside of me is fine, but I'm not. I'm just wondering if this could be because of the medication. I don't have insurance until June 1st so I can't see a neurologist about this yet. Thank you.
