insomnia

[SpENS93]

i cannot fall asleep at all the past couple days i just sit there for 5 hours trying 2 sleep and its day 5 and ive got maybe 10 hours of sleep the last 4 days. and right now im looking at my compouter screen and it feels like my hands arent there like its weird.

my next psychatrist appt i am going 2 ask for some sort of sleep aid. I want benzos because they alaways knock me out how would i ask for them as apposed to lunesta or ambien

[Mr.Writer]

If all else fails give Dramamine a shot. Take around 30mg. You may feel more "strange" than tired, but I guarantee you will be out like a light when you lie down and close your eyes.

[SpENS93]

isnt dramamine motion sickness pill that produces a delirious state like benedryl?

[MeatWagon499]

yea, but it makes you really tired also. you wont be delerious if you only take 30mg

[Mr.Writer]

Yeah at 30 it's a very light alteration like maybe a shot of booze. Mostly it's an overwhelming desire to not move, close your eyes, and go to sleep for a week.

ive never done the dramamine. does it make your skin feel weird like benadryl can sometimes even at low doses? you know, where you'll keep getting that feeling on different parts of your legs when your trying to fall asleep that feels like a hair or a cobweb or something like that going over your skin. like these little tickles that keep coming and make it harder to fall asleep actually.

Mr. Writer, I know exactly what you mean. It's like you think "fuck being high, all I really want to do is sleeeeeeeep." And then BAM, you're out.

maybe its a just placebo but when i take enogh benaryl or dramanine to trip, i suddenly dont get tired.

i recomend some muscle relaxers for the starter of this topic. just take 2 0r 3 or maybe 4 zanflex's and you'll be sleeping like a baby

Here's a suggestion:
go run a mile or two before bed. I used to do this every night when I had trouble getting to sleep and, well, it cured my sleeping troubles! Definitely try this before resorting to drugs, because you'll almost certainly get addicted and wont' be able to sleep without them. I have a friend who got to the point where he would have to take 5 benadryl to sleep, then he'd wake up 5 hours later and not be able to get back to sleep because the drugs would have worn off. Its just not a good situation to get into and should be avoided if at all possible.

[LSDMIKE]

take what he or she give you, if there not benzos, then at your next appointment, when
he ask you how the tabs work for you tell em that thay do work but you
wake up with a headache.

[moomooman]

having to take 5 benadryl to go to sleep and then waking up 5 hours later isnt because the diphenhydramine wore off, its probably because when you do a certain amount of diphenhydramine the opposite effect starts happenening and it gets harder to sleep, even if your tired. its not placebo illcanabillyvanilly, thats actually how the drug works.

[st. stephen]

ambien makes me a ton more tired than normal benzo's

[SpENS93]

ok this has to stop SOON I AM NOT GOING THROUGH THIS WHEN COLLEGE STARTS

another night of maybe 2 hours of sleep

[SpENS93]

it hasnt happened every night not 2 days ago

[LSDMIKE]

if it's so bad why don't you go see a doctor today?
