I'm considering DBS and also having part of my right temporal lobe removed, for what sounds like similar reasons.

Did it affect your personality a lot?

Not that I am aware of.

I was in the middle of my teen years, which is already a period of intense personality change.

I was always a quiet introvert, so that hasn't changed. I'd say my core personality is about the same. Intensely curious, and indifferent to societal norms.
