Not easy at all. I have suffered from intermittent, chronic insomnia for several years now. I went to the Docs several times and he eventually gave me 10 of the lowest dosage benzos that you can prescribe (can’t remember what they were). Once they were gone (they were supposed to be a month’s supply) he refused to give me any more.

You are better off trying to find a contact to buy some from on the black market but beware of becoming reliant on them to get to sleep.

I’ve suffered with insomnia for nearly a decade now. Comes and goes in phases and seemingly afflicts me independent of my bi-polar disorder. Worst I’ve been through was 9days and nights without any sleep at all. Literally sent me a bit fight club style delusional. This used to happen infrequently but severely when it did. My symptoms have recently altered and I’m currently averaging roughly 20 hours of sleep a week. Of course decided it’s time to try and get it sorted so went docs. Since I explained the severity of my insomnia they’ve been chucking sleepers at me left right and centre. Done valium, xanax, mirtazapine, etizalam all barely touch me even on high doses. The only thing guaranteed to knock me out is a hench blunt, or severe head trauma. Not that there’s much difference between the two lol.

i was going out with a girl that had a sleep disorder where she’d just start waking up in the night and often worked through the night (painting, not the street :<). after a few years i noticed i was developing a sleep disorder too lol… we both started taking melatonin which is a naturally occurring hormone that is involved in sleep regulation… for example wen it gets late, there is reduced light etc, your brain makes melotonin and the doctor found in the case of my gf (obviously not me, i didnt really have a disorder, was just getting used to being up all night) that her brain makes less melatonin and so she doesn’t get tired… also somehow that meant it was hard for her to get up the next day… but once she took melatonin, she would be settling nicely within an hour… i always take them now if i need to sleep at an unusual time, and as long as u dont do too much, they have a positive, not negative affect the next day.

for the sake of the question, xanax (i think) is only available if u have private healthcare, etizolam only from a research chemical vendor. i havent done them but from reading i wouldn’t suggest mirtazapine or zopiclone for sleep, as dependence builds up. mirtazapine is an anti-depressant and zobiclone has psychoactive properties which may be working in some way for ‘psyientist’, who has a medical condition, but i would see it as far too much for the sake of just trying to get some sleep

I would advise something more natural and less harmful, Marijuana

Or even better deal with your stresses and sort out the internal problem which is the source of your insomnia

I do generally try and smoke more mellow stuff as opposed to the super skunk style weed. Plus I have requested possible alternative therapies such as cbt and hypnotherapy which may help tackle my issues rather than simply subdue them. I’m not looking for sympathy or attention with such posts by the way. Just sort of seemed like relevant info in regards to thread topic.

The weird thing is when my insomnia is fully kicking in my pulse races and my pupils dilate i could down a bottle of good red with no effect whatsoever its like I’m on crystal meth or something.

Same mate, my girlfriend has found me up a few times at like 5.30am convinced I’ve had some speed or summet cos of the pupil thing. And my mind sometimes errupts with racing thoughts about anything and everything, rarely anxiety based. Often just random things like trying to comprehend the vastness of the universe or how it might be like to be an animal and how you’d see and perceive the world differently with their sensory system. And again this has been happening years before I was taking any recreational drugs. I silently put up with all the mad shit until a little over a year ago I fell in love and got the motivation to try get it sorted so all the downers have pretty much been in the last year. I could go on about my mental health history but hey I’d be rambling and this isn’t my thread to hijack lol
