Thankfully I just got off of this horrible drug. Worked wonders on the hallucinations, but made me to where I couldn't function at work, and I also began sleeping in parking lots, etc., because I became so sleepy and exhausted I felt it unsafe to drive. 2 hours after taking 80 mg at 8am, I was almost always found behind my desk sound asleep. To overcome this falling asleep at work, the doctor had me take 120 mg at night and 40 during the day. The next day after changing the way I took it, I started shaking uncontrollably and sweating. I shook like this for a week until I stopped taking it. The DR said it was anxiety, but I knew better, my head was clear. After I quit taking it I took 3 days to stop shaking completely. Seems like in made my ears ring too, and they're still ringing somewhat.
