Haven't slept at all - any suggestions?

Posted by DreaM on August 27, 2001 at 14:43:15:

I just found this forum today and it gives me at least some comfort that I am not alone in this terrible experience. In January I had a six-week bout of total insomnia. Thought I was going crazy. Was prescribed various sleeping pills and then Remeron (in the anti-depressant family) for six months. I stopped sleeping about a week before I stopped the medication and it's now been two weeks since I've slept at all. I really don't want to be medicated as I would like to have children at some point and who knows what the long term effects of usage are? But... this drug really did help. Has anyone else tried Remeron? The MD who prescribed it has no experience with sleep disorders. Would love any input you can provide.

Thanks so much,

D
