> Lamictal seems to give me some akisthesia at higher (for me) doses. I'm fine until I try to lie down to sleep, and then I just can't lie still and can't sleep.<snip>
The jerky - shock stuff doesn't start until I lie down, also. The benign fasciculations can occur at anytime.
<snip>> I wish I could help more. But allow yourself to get up and move if it helps. Not being able to sleep is not good, but it's better than lying awake in bed twitching, IMO.

Years ago when I had insomnia due to depression, Halcion worked absolutely great for me. I'd be asleep within 10 - 15 minutes, and sleep staight through until morning. I tried it a few months ago and it was worthless.
