My problem is that when I goes to sleep at night, I feel a sudden movement in my legs for less than 1 sec.This movement in my legs or in my hand happens without my will. This occurs automatically without my will and sometimes I wake up from sleep. And this time I neighter go to deep sleep nor I fully awake. Is this any other problem or is it normal to me. Please tell me. Will it harm me.Every night I experience this problem??

Hi Welcome to practo. These abnormal leg movement , can be due to the medication fluvoaxamine.  So consult your treating psychiatrist for either dose adjustment or adding another drug.  Sometimes clonazepam help in such case. Get yourself re evaluated by your treating doctor, it will surely can be managed. Thanks and regards
