I need some advice. I ran out of my psych med that makes me sleep, and I've pretty much been dependent on a medication to sleep for YEARS. I'm struggling. I was taking 2 Benedryl all week and it seemed to work but tonight it had no effect whatsoever. I literally just can't sleep. This is what I was recommended to do but wasn't told what to do if this stops working. I'm currently trying some sleepy time tea. But if this doesn't work? I don't know what else to do. I've tried melatonin in the past and it doesn't work either.

Any ideas? I haven't had much luck being prescribed a sleeping medication. I have an appointment to see my doctor but it's not for two weeks. I'm on a waiting list to see a psych doctor. There's not a whole lot I can do, except possibly go to the ER and try to ask for sleeping meds from them. It's a really tough situation.
