A good-sized dose of gabapentin plus clozaril is making me sleep better than ever (?) before. I didn't even sleep as an infant and the only time I remember sleeping easily like this was when I was first on Emsam combined with 600 mg of Seroquel XR. Then I fell asleep at 11 and woke at 4. It worked for me but a lot of people thought it wasn't enough sleep.

At this point I'm probably sleeping too much so I probably need less gabapentin but I don't even care right now; my body has been through so much this year that I'm very willing to let myself rest. Even in the hospital they were encouraging me to sleep and heal. I see my pdoc pretty soon and probably will try less gabapentin then.
