Psyclox,

What you are describing is exactly what it does for me. I am on 200/300 mg at night & only as needed during the day.

It is keeping the nightmares away & I was waking up in a state that was defined to me as depersonalization.....which it also stops......I no longer have my mind wandering into those strange states. I do feel dizzy at times but only when I am having some health problems with dehydration.

You are not abnormal......in my case the feelings you describe are actually helping me out of the place I was in rather than just being strange.

I am sure you can get more answers form others around here
