[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, 15 year insomniac here who finally turned to drugs. All I can say is DO IT. Xanax is good in the short term, but you desperately need to reset your sleep cycle.

You have sleep maintenance insomnia. I would try either Lunesta, or the newer drugs that have come out that are short acting for middle of the night wakings.

While you are doing this, resetting your cycle, try CBT-I. I am not suggesting, I am telling! It is life changing.

Go see a sleep specialist or your family doc for the drugs, and google CBT-I therapists in your area.

Or, if you are like me and don't want to deal with a person, try some of the online CBT-I programs. I used ShutI, but there are several good programs.

I hate that I am an expert on this, but over many years of trial and error, I have done and seen it all.

Two weeks or more on drugs resetting your cycle, and CBT- simultaneously.

Good luck![/quote]

My husband has sleep apnea and uses a C-PAP, but he travels a lot internationally.  His doc said basically all this to him yesterday and prescribed him Lunesta.  [/quote]
