Greetings from me as well!
From October 2015 till August 2016 I was in the Army. The first 4 months were kinda tough for me and I returned home having headaches and feeling spaced out. I went to see a neurologist and she first subscribed me with Mirtamor which changed to Zolotrin because the 1st had no effect. She diagnosed me with depression. I finished army obligations in August 2016. On April 2017, my first 'episode' happened. I was at a family table and then found myself searching for a headache pill in the next room with no memory of how I got there. I contacted my doctor and she told me that I need to increase the pill from 100mg to 150mg, which I did. Same 'episode' happened again 4 times since then and 1 of those times was while i was driving. Its like I work on automatic without concioussness and I cant remember anything afterwards. It happens when I am tired and overstressed and its like the load overcomes the effect the pill has on me and I get into sleep mode. 2 tears passed since my depression was diagnosed and i would like to cut the med but I am afraid my brain still needs it. Can anyone provide any info about my episode? Thank you and sorry for the long post! -Harry |

Welcome to psych Central.
 I’m not sure what to say about your episodes. Are you still having them. If you are it might be a good idea to see a doctor or therapist.

Last Episode happened 3 days ago. The previous one was back in January. It does not happen often, but I think its like a defensive mechanism of my brain. Before every episode there is lack of sleep or bad sleep, stress, anxiety, bad mood and all of those trigger this thing. I also considered it could be sleep disorder related. I am going to see a psychiatrist about it tomorrow , who I saw 1 year ago for this thing. Will post back when I have more info! |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
