Last Night

Posted by alex on October 16, 2003 at 10:59:41:

Well, i received all 3 books mentioned on this site about Insomnia and read the entire Weidman book last night. I went to bed around 1:30 and couldn't fall asleep after an hour. At 2:30 i took 7.5mgs temazapam and couldn't fall asleep by 3:45 when i got up to use the washroom. Then got back in bed and slept very very lightly until 10 am (maybe about 2 hours of sleep all together).
I'm worried that SR will not work b/c I'LL NEVER BE ABLE to fall asleep. Any success stories whom had the same worries at first but got over them? I'm wondering if taking the Temazpam (Restoril) for 2 months is causing me trouble falling asleep w/out it? How long will it take to get over that? I'm on the lowest dose of it at 7.5mgs and don't really know how to cut it done from there b/c it's a capsule. Any advice would be great. I'm a 24 year old healthy male who's had insomnia since August 15 of this past summer.

best,
alex
