>I just want to sleep like a "normal" human being.
It would be nice, wouldn't it?
In the last 2 days I've had maybe 6 hours sleep. It's a long time since I've slept like one should, like children do.
So, OK, benzos aren't the answer, they damage sleep architecture, inhibit melatonin synthesis and godknows what else, but they are humane. Only the addictive drugs are humane, as we have learned to accept. There's herbs. If they work they might be addictive too, but at least they are humane. I've never bothered with the AAPs...the older ones were enough for me. I have a feeling that long term benzo use has f*ck*d up my brain and therefore sleep. Not really many good options.
