Hi!!!
Yep, I have every sedating mediciation you could possibly think of in my medicine cabinet. Ambien worked for me for one night, thats it!!! I gave it a try about a month later, still nothing. I have been on Klonopin 2 mgs daily, I think maybe my body has built up a tolerance to sedating meds.
I have Ambien, Valium, Ativan, Xanax, Trazadone, Nytol, and many others, prescription & non prescriptions in my cabinet. They don't work. It's not like I get rebound insomnia from these meds. I will try a med for a couple of days, if it doesn't work, I stop taking it.
Well, so far the Paxil hasn't done a darn thing as far as helping me sleep. Right now, I'm taking 25 mg, then in a week , bump up, if I need to. I took the Paxil CR at 9 pm. It's now almost 5 am, still no sleep. Who knows, maybe it will help me sleep after taking it for a few days?
Thank you for the suggestion though.
I sound like a big cry baby. All I have been doing is complaining to everyone about my insomnia for the past couple of weeks. I'm sure people are sick of hearing about it.
Thanks again.Jodie
