I took my pills pretty late last night, including the extra 100mg of gabapentin (total of 500mg). I woke up all f- ed up about 4 hours after... I mean REALLY f- ed up. Some of it may have been because the effects of my night meds (which should have put me out for longer than that) hadn't worn off yet, but I am still f- ed up HOURS later...

I feel sedated and totally out of it, but I can't sit still. I just realized that I'm experiencing psychomotor agitation. I'm a total f- ing mess...

The first time I added on the extra 100mg of gabapentin, I only got 5-5 1/2hrs sleep, felt tired and/or sedated when I got up, but also felt like it was activating. I felt fine the next day tho.

I hope that's the case tomorrow. But somehow I doubt it because of the psychomotor agitation. I won't be taking any extra gabapentin again, but I want to see how I'm doing tomorrow before contacting my pdoc. I will make sure I take my pills on time tonight so I don't complicate matters, and can see if I'm manic or not. Because right now it feels like I'm manic.
