I sleep walk terrible my neurologist says it's not caused by medication even though only started sleep walk after was diagnosed but it's not of that it's caused by the main braincells that are being used while dreaming with the other problems they are side affects of your medication

Topomax did the same. I have been on Valium and ativan . If been moved to xanax.
I too have the memory loss and the stuttering. Sleep walking not too often but it does happen to me also. You are in my prayers.
