Hi Babblers-
I've been doing a lot better with my Ketamine injections, but I'm still plagued with insomnia. In an effort to keep my meds simple (I take Lexapro, Deplin and Valium), my pdoc and I decided upon using 20 mg of Valium for sleep.
It hardly does the job. It's been great for my anxiety, but doesn't help me fall and stay asleep. Other med classes are out; no APs, no additional ADs (Remeron, Trazadone), no Vistiral.
So, would it be reasonable (and helpful) to use Restoril for sleep? Or a Z drug? If I did this, I would cut back to only 10-20 mg of Valium during the day if and when needed for anxiety.
Thanks in advance.
