Scripted Tuinal!

Posted by kelv on January 21, 2007, at 8:50:13

Taking stimulant meds does wonders for my functionality, i can function close to that of a regular person, however my dose of Dex causes insomnia, which hasn't responded to:

-Valium
-Xanax
-Klonopin
-Zopliclone
-Risperdal
-Trifluroperazine
-Benedryl

So me being at my wits end, and badly needing sleep, he offered Seconal or Tuinal-saying Tuinal was more effective in TR insomnia in his experience. He gave me Tuinal-an equal parts mixture of Seconal 100mgs+Amytal 100mgs, the pills are blue and red-indicating the mix.

They did the trick, i had the best nights sleep in memory-Heaven!! woke up a little dozey at first, but now fine, and my morning dose of Dex and coffee takes care of any tiredness.

Looks like you're on the classic upper/downer combo - makes sense, but they have a sinister history.

Can you describe how the Tuinal felt or did you fall right asleep?

It is only for a short time, limited amount. I took 1 went to bed, and usually toss and turn, but in a short while lights out, total turn off, which was nice. The Doc said it's not a long term solution, but to get some much needed sleep, and back on track.
