> My doc is no longer willing to prescribe .5mg of lorazepam, despite the fact that it was effectively combating my parnate-induced insomnia; because she is concerned I am addicted. She is opposed to any long-term sleep aid...


I agree w/ Phillipa. Seems ridiculous to suggest addiction at that dose. You deserve something to combat your insomnia. If she won't give lorazepam I suggest asking for Lunesta or Ambien CR. Actually, they are better than benzos for restorative sleep.

One of the few things I've learned over the past few years is that if you truly need sleep meds you simply need them, end of story.

Without adequate sleep mental health is IMHO impossible.

Peace...Saturn.
