Well, I just got out of the hospital and was put on new meds....one of them is Cymbalta. I can't sleep on these new meds. I'm constantly waking up all night long. I only sleep an hour at a time if I'm lucky. I don't know if this is one of the side effects or if it's my insomnia kicking in overdrive since I don't have my klonopin to put me to sleep.

Anyone else experience this? Just wondering.

It will get better as you adjust. I take my Cymbalta at nighttime to put me to sleep .But it was like this at first. Give it time.

when I was released from hospital settings it took me a while to adjust to being home and so on. In the hospitals I got used to the hosptial sounds and couldn't sleep at home for a bit. Give it some time it took me about a month but I know some people who it took as long as two months to get back into a home routine instead of the hospital routine.

That happened to me too -- I went straight from inpatient to partial and when my pdoc asked me the next day how my first night at home went, I told him I couldn't sleep because it was too quiet! LOL

Give it some time, it will get better
