I was taking good doses of Lyrica (600 mg all at once in the morning to get the maximum mood elevating effects) but now I can skip Lyrica for a day or two after being on Lunesta 2mg at night. Lunesta helps me to sleep and maintain sleep, but if I feel like staying up after taking it, there does not seem to be much of problems apart from having something related to a sedative high.
