1st time [2 weeks ago]: Took 5mg. Had some racing thoughts & weird noises, but I was going through a manic period, so I wasn't bothered too much.
2nd time [last week]: Took 10mg. Fell asleep just fine without complications.
3rd time [last night]: Took 10mg. Took a few minutes to kick in... Then my depth of field decreased & the room seemingly shrunk while everything in it became huge. I started shaking all over -- my legs, arms, body, & head couldn't stop shaking. I became disoriented. And I thought there was a carnival taking place in the room... Even with all of my hallucinations, I've never experienced anything so vivid. As if it was actually in the room with me & not just a trick of the light. I could hear the music, the rides whooshing by, the carnies rounding up children, etc. I could barely speak because I was shaking so bad. I couldn't find words. And my boyfriend looked like he had two mouths.
So, uh, WTF? I'm going to see my psychiatrist next Monday, but should I need a sleep aid again, should I chance it or not? It never affected me so strongly before but that experience makes me a little nervous.
