Slept 8 hours (4am-12pm). Good sleep.

I took a temazepam because I took the Vyvanse later in the day. Hopefully I'll fall asleep with just a zopiclone tonight.

[SlumberKitty]

Went to sleep at 8 PM. Woke up at 4 AM so 8 hours. Needed another one or two but I had to get ready for work. I need a nap but I can't take one at work right now.

[Desoxyn]

Been going to bed at ~2am every night and waking up at ~11am every morning.

I fell asleep this evening though.

Will take a walk around the block time 2 sleep.

[bpcyclist]

5-6 hours. Albert snuck under the covers and started chasing my legs, even though both were, like, completely motionless. Ugh.

[childofchaos831]

13 and 1/2 hours of sleep with 3 hrs of REM...

[SlumberKitty]

Got 8 hours.

[Desoxyn]

Got 10 hours of sleep. Went to bed at 10:30pm, woke up at 8:30am.

2 hours of REM sleep an hour of deep sleep.

Will be going to bed earlier than 12am on work days.

[Desoxyn]

Slept for 17 hours. I feel refreshed.

There was a moment where it felt like my heart was having arrhythmias but it was likely sleep paralysis tactile hallucinations. I thought I was dying and hallucinating that I couldn't breathe and was going to the afterlife so I said "Fine I'll do anything to live" and I woke up.

I had horrible nightmares about having skin cancer, that life isn't real - All sorts of ****. They were the most psychotic dreams I've ever had.

Pure psychotic dreams.

Welp.. I work in 40 minutes..

[childofchaos831]

We didn't sleep for 2 days, then slept for almost 18 hrs...

[SlumberKitty]

Got about 8 hours. That's good.

[Desoxyn]

Sleeeeep.. , sleeeeeep aahh sleeep..

I'm gonna take a walk around the block and then sleep at 10pm. I'll wake up at 6:30am to get up for work at 9am. This will be a new normal for me 5 days a week for now.

[SlumberKitty]

I got about 8 hours last night. I didn't want to get up though. Even though I was dreaming about grocery shopping--lol!

[Desoxyn]

A really nice 8 hours.

What are some good sleep meds? I've tried trazadone, and mood stabilizers, and benzos. The ones that work seem to build tolerences quite well.

Z-drugs! Hypnotics are good.. (Lunesta, Ambien, zopiclone).. They don't help with anxiety. Zopiclone for me puts me to sleep every night but I have to TRY and sleep - Not saying you're not trying.. But with a hypnotic, you also need to know how to sleep.

We don't know how to sleep. Make sure you quiet your mind (Once you're off the anxiolytics) and say "Stop thinking" multiple times until you're not thinking anymore.. Then breath in-out (Focus on the 'point' - Which is GOD.. Or infinity.. like a black hole) and out-in is the same. You do one of each per oxygen/CO2 exchanging.. Those two things, combined with zopiclone and olanzepine put me to sleep - Although olanzepine makes me hungry.. Not good.. Could lead to diabetes and discomfort..

I know you don't like Ambien cuz you made a baby and forgot or something I don't remember but you should give it another shot - It could be an irrational fear unless specific people are susceptible to go into hypnosis and sleep walking more than average. Zopiclone doesn't do that to people - You should ask your doctor about taking zopiclone while withdrawing from the temazepam.. Maybe by using diazepam 5-10mg or something.

Anyways, I think the zopiclone cured my hypersomnia because I've built tolerance so I'm withdrawing during the day now.. Which helps me stay awake.. Although Vyvanse gets me out of bed well enough to make myself a strong coffee - Then I'm awake.

Gonna take a walk around the block. I might not though cuz I'm afraid of depersonalization. Will be nice to do this in the winter or fall. It's hot af in the house.

[Desoxyn]

Don't feel nearly as happy as I did before I went to bed. Didn't get enough sleep. I got 6 hours of sleep. I need more like 8 or 9.

Time to go to work..

[Desoxyn]

Slept for 17-18 hours to make up for the time I woke up at 6am for 3 days in a row to go to work. I think that might be my new normal (To sleep all day Sunday evening and Monday morning). I didn't even have to take a zopiclone.

I take Lunesta and sometimes with a xanax chaser.

Yeah, i don't know if i want ambien, the incident is that I had unprotected sex with my girlfriend at the time. She welcomed it i later found out but that situation makes me very uncomfertable. Does ziplocone put people into hypnosis too? I'm desperate really. my sleep sutation is so bad.

I'll ask my doc about it. I already take a benzo but it no longer works.
