Hey everyone,
It's almost 4:30 am here. I have gotten maybe a total of 7 hours of sleep in the last 3 days, maybe a little more but my sleep is so broken up that it doesn't feel like i am getting any.
I even took some valium before I took my sleeping meds and the rest of my meds for the night, woke up a half hour later which was 11:30pm and haven't been to sleep since. I have tried, but don't want to just lay there and think, it gets me into trouble.
I have been on so many different sleeping medications over the years and trazadone was one of the best but with the MAOI medication i am now on it makes me sick. Plus was pretty much on and off of it for the lasst 11 years or so.
Anyways, sorry am babbling
Take care everyone, I know I should be greatful to get sleep, right?
Hugs,
jen

So i went to see my pdoc yesterday and he put me on Rozerem. I had a great attitude about taking it because I have never taken it, at least didn't think I have. Well, got about 2 hours of sleep maybe 3. I am going to continue taking it because I know that last night was the first night I took it, but my hopes of finding something to sleep is dwindeling.
I almost feel like i have to take something more than prescribed to even get anywhere with sleep. I know that's not a good thought, but am really losing hope...and my depression seems to be getting worse, but my thought is oh well...as usual.
