I'll be watching this post and hoping for some ideas. I too take Emsam (which has been a life saver after trying 20 other meds). I can't sleep and it's really start to affect my life! I'm currently taking-
300 mg Lithium bedtime
12.5 Ambien CR bedtime
1 mg Clonazepam bedtime
6 mg Emsam in the morning
25-100 mg Vistaril as needed during the day
.50 mg of Clonazempam as needed during the dayI sleep for MAYBE 4 hours a night. I have the added problem of PLMD. Someone please tell us there's help for sleep out there! I fell asleep on my 30 minute lunch break at work yesterday and at the movies the other night ( I liked the movie so that wasn't it) and I've almost fallen asleep at stoplights, at work, and while driving long straight stretches. I just don't know what to do...... The Pdoc is aware of the problem and I don't go back to my sleep doc for about 3 weeks.
