It’s all about finding the right doctor. In my old town I found one immediately. Others are too scared to give patients the medication they need and just want to cover their asses out of unfounded fear

Even in quiet places like your bedroom before sleep you don’t hear it? @SumGuy

Had to look up DORA, looks to be very new series of drugs? I’m still rocking the zolpidem and clonzapem. I’d like to get off but I feel like I need their stability for now.

All we can do is stay strong. I laid there from 2:20 AM or so until my alarm rang at 6:00

Running your sleep brokenness is interesting. Me and you and seem to have opposite problems. My problem is I cannot sleep after waking. I hope you can find a med that works for you. Find a PCP that will work with you. I was lucky the 1st PCP I went to was open to me trying things.

Yes, I've been consistently taking the 12.5 mg Zolpidem CR on top of the clonzepam. One thing I didn't consider is that I didn't get a ton of exercise last night but I got a decent workout in today, so we'll see.

Basically I'd say that clonaezpam takes the edge off. I notice it less in the office and when I'm sitting in the car at a turn signal, as an example. It's still perfectly noticeable in my bed room or if I'm sitting in my car in a parking lot with the engine off and no other ambient noise.

Honestly, the last two days I took what my doctor recommended, that is 1mg clon at bed time and .5 mg in morning. Inexplicably I only got 4 hours sleep last night :(

Also - the sleep was very good last night. I *might* have broken 6 hrs. Although Im not positive

Thanks Running, I'm going to keep my dosages as low as possible. I took .5mg last night and .5mg this morning. Tomorrow I may even drop those down to .25mg each. need a good way to split the tablets

Thanks Running. I'll take it all together 1 time to see what happens. Maybe reduce tomorrow. I agree its a lot of stuff to take at once

Thanks - I can give those a try next if my new thing doesn't work. Doc gave me clonazepam 1mg at night and .5 in the morning. This will be with the Zolpidem CR.

Ah okay, the Apple Watch lets you enter "sleep mode." It starts counting sleep about 15-20 minutes after you enable it. It will disable at a specific time, sleep schedule, that you can preprogram or you can do it manually. In our cases, the manual mode is more useful to get a more accurate read...

Yeah the trackers really are only good if you turn off the sleep setting as soon as you wake. Personally I’m never able to fall asleep once I wake up. So my sleep is solid but in the shorter side

Yes I tried lunesta but it didn’t work the few times I tried it. My cr prescription is still good so I went back to it. Just getting up now. My Apple Watch is telling me I got about 5.5 again last night

Good feedback on the tolerance. I shifted to Lunesta/Eszopiclone (3mg) last night and got a solid 5. I was on 12.5 mg Ambien CR just the night before. However, your comment makes me think I should split my Lunesta into 1.5 mg halves or ask the doctor for a lower prescription. I think my doc...

Wow that’s a super low dosage of Ambien. I’ve used 5, 10, and 12.5 mg, the last one being CR. I’d like to get off it but I wasn’t getting sleep as reliable with other options. Agreed on the OTCs

Thanks! I lived in Maryland, so it fits me. Hope to move back soon
