What time of day do you take it? Do you take it with food?

Any regularity to the twitching (same general location, etc)?

I take it every night between 9-11pm, when I am about to settle down for bed. It's usually about an hour or two after my evening meal.

The twitching is usually legs, arms and my head. It happens as I'm falling asleep and it can wake me up and be quite scary for a few seconds and then I calm down and realise what it was. It can be several little twitches but often one big one that sort of jolts my whole body.

I need to make an appointment for the doctor in the week maybe I can bring it up then.

I think its been increasing over the past couple of weeks. I've been noticing it more in that time.

I have always been told to take it in the morning and not on an empty stomach. If I take it late in the day it keeps me up at night in the same way, I thought I had restless leg syndrome for awhile before I worked out the correlation. Might be something to consider.

Thanks WWWP, might have to try that then and see if it eases up.

I figured it would be common sense to not take the muscle spasm pill right before you go to bed.

Unless taking it in the morning gives you other side effects.

Right, like nausea.

The good news is, I found some inspiration for writing music.

The bad news is, **** bipolar disorder and PTSD and whatever else is wrong with my head.

I think I'm misdiagnosed, lol.

Bipolar II and ADHD are the two big ones but I'm pretty sure I'm not bipolar and in fact have borderline personality disorder. Gonna see a psych about it soon; if it's true it'll explain a lot of my mood problems, and how they seem to stem from interpersonal difficulties rather than the other way around.

Got into a relationship last semester that basically ruined my academics; fortunately I withdrew in time, but I was really depressed throughout, and we broke up right when the semester ended. In the case of BPD or whatever I have, it kinda hurts to find out that the way I give and receive love is fundamentally unhealthy. Probably don't wanna take on another relationship for at least a few years, while I get my **** sorted out.

I feel like I'm beyond repair because my inability to treat my illness and muster up the courage to face my trauma makes me unfixable. Being a broken human makes me worthless to humanity, in fact my illness makes me a literal poison to the gene pool that should be cleansed from it before I infect it further by either procreating or projecting the same sickness that my father projected onto me.
