It turned out that nowadays Thorazine is prescribed in much smaller doses. It did help me sleep, and I recall being surprised because I had no unusual side effects from it. Most likely I stopped taking it because my insurance changed and the new pdoc prescribed a newer AP.

Your sleep environment sounds very good. Please don't be harsh on yourself because you can't sleep.

The only thought I have is probably an obvious one. Would your pdoc raise the dose, at least for a while so your body can get back into a sleep rhythm?
Thanks, Beth. Interesting and encouraging that you had no SE really.

Yeah, the pdoc will do anything reasonable to make this go away. Will be texting him tomorrow morning for an update and we will go from there.
