mattinsmom Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hello I am wondering if anyone has experienced sleep walking while decreasing medications. Last night I woke up many times, in many places in my house. There were times that it took me a few minutes to realize where I was. Once I thought I was in another persons house and started heading towards where her bed is. Luckily I woke up before I took a sh**er down the stairs. Apparently I had a snack too because there were dishes next to the bed. I have never, not once ever, walked in my sleep. I routinely have conversations in my "sleep" that I don't remember (love those benzos - not). But, I have never gone meandering. Thank God(dess etc) that I didn't decide to take a scenic drive. I dropped 50mg of Lamictal 19-days ago and this is the 1st time an unusual symptom(?) has presented. Anyone else? Suggestions?
