I have had insomnia my entire life. Benadryl (large quantities of it) worked briefly. I don't take naps. The only times I have ever napped were on vacation. I konk out almost immediately.

When I don't sleep I just get very fragile, sensitive and weepy. I have never had a manic episode triggered because I just feel tired. The only medication that knocks me out (and I mean the ONLY one) is Remeron. It is my magic bullet.

So hopefully the vacation trick works on you and you have a sympathetic and supportive husband.
