Insomnia Anyone?

Question

I have major insomnia and even the strongest Ambien CR doesn't put me to sleep combined with Seroquel and Klonopin; plus some other night medications I have to take. My shrink knows about the problem but, I don't go back to see him for another two weeks. I really don't know if I can last that long without losing my mind a little. I'm running out of things to keep me occupied. I can't concentrate enough to read. I write all of the time. I'd say I'm getting about two hours of sleep a night. So, any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Answer 4

even i have this kinda problem, hence i can tell u something about this.
insomnia, can be a boon to some and a curse to many, depends upon how u see it. in the beginning even i used to have great deal of troubles due to this effect, but one day i realized that i have more time in my hands then anybody else (this made my friends jealous).
now, i have adopted and evolved insomnia so much into my life that, instead of brooding over it , i use it to do more work. it will be tough in the beginning, but trust me u will get used to it.
i can sum up the whole thing as cloud behind a silver lining, and coverting our bads as the goods we can use. (forgive the pun !!)

Answer 5

Well in my case I was diagnosed a severe manic depressant which contributed to insomnia and addiction. I finally asked for help and was prescribed Zoloft and Trazadone. The longest I ever stayed up without drugs or alcohol was 12 days straight. If your anything like me take prescribed drugs but I am a pretty severe case.

Answer 6

Two things that help: one, intense physical exercise for an hour a day (like, running or gymming) and two, deep breathing and meditation.

Sometimes it also helps to literally count sheep! Imagine a fence in a green countryside and a herd of fat silly sheep with white fleece clustered on one side. As they start jumping over the fence, keep count of them....one, two, three......till you fall asleep without realising it. Sometimes they do silly things in my imagination also, like missing the fence and slipping- that makes me laugh and relaxes me and puts me to sleep soon.

Answer 7
