Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on what meds to ask about with my pdoc. I have been having severe insomnia for about 6 months, and it's getting really bad. I was given (not to be taken all at once obviously): Elavil, Trazodone, Klonopin, Ambien, Restoril. None of it is working. I am sleeping around 2 hours a night, i would be happy with 8 but I will take 5. Benzos for whatever reason have never been much help for me, maybe my metabolism is werid or something.
It's getting bad, I can't concentrate, I randomly zone out, I have conversations w/ people and then dont remember what we talked about. Sometimes I think that I am just thinking about something, I find myself actually speaking out loud.
Any suggestion for when I talk to her on monday.
P.S. I have tried herbal remedies--valarian root and the like. I have also self medicated w/alcohol. I know, not a good idea and it didn't even help. My husband enjoyed it though...if you know what I mean. :)
Thx
