Hi Anna:
By "paradoxic", I simply meant that the more you take, the less sedating it is- seems counterintuitive, but holds true for most who take it. Thus, unlike a benzo, if the sedation effect wears off (as it did for me), you cannot increase the sedation by increasing the dose. Hope this helps.
BTW, what country are you posting from?
