Insomnia

[Guest guest]

You know, including my husband's insurance - I think just about all of them are

getting where they only pay for 15 - now mine will pay for 30 although for a

while, I was taking 1/2 like Sue but then I started waking up AGAIN at 2:30 so

then I started taking the other 1/2 --- The whole thing was making feel crappy

the next day.

 

I finally found a solution that just so happens to work for me - I don't know

that it would work for anyone else, but I had run out of ambien, I took 75mg of

benadryl - walmart brand at that! I had the best sleep ever and that's been a

week ago and every night since then - I swear - I've had the best sleep in my

life! Again, don't know that this would work for anyone else - but I've had

severe insomnia for years - both my parents have had it all their life - I do

NOT have a sleeping disorder - I don't have an answer for it. Most

antihistamenes (sp) have the exact opposite effect on me - but hey - sometimes

you just go with what works!
