I've been taking 20 to 30 tablets at once a day to feel calm and normal. my brain is in a constant state of sensory overload mainly sound. Due to brain injury front right lobe removed, stroke and epilepsy and loss of nearly all sight. I only have tunnel vision left.

My main side effect is over sleeping. I go to sleep at 10pm till 10am. I don't doze off during the day.

I have been doing this for over a month. I like the way I can cope with everyday life.

I know this is not normal.

I'm scared of my brain not being able to cope with all the overload of sensory information if I stop.

I finally feel able to cope in a normal society.
