I took high doses of Thorazine and it made me stupid. I couldn't remember what I was saying half way through my sentence. The hospital doc put me on it along with everyone else. I think they use it to make people compliant. It was a horrible experience and I would never take it again. Again I was on a high dosage so I don't know how it would be in lower doses for insomnia.
