>For anyone following this string.... the schedule
of the Rivotril was switched (1.0 in the a.m.)
2.0 at night. The dose has not been reduced because there is an app. with a dr. coming up which should not be drug-altered for accuracy's sake.--No I don't think that scheduling switch makes a difference. There is still irresistable falling asleep in the aft. What's more, *i* have had the same thing for some time now....not so extreme-- (after the unsuccessful clonazepam withdrawal i think - some 4 yrs. ago and noticeable after the lithium dose peak). The distinctive thing for me is that the nap is immediately a dip into REM sleep. That happened during clonazepam withdrawal
and continues.Could be that we both had a drug-induced stroke, or there's a virus going around. The nap is about 1 - 3 hrs.
Strange.
