Many years taking sleep medications

Of course the best thing to do for sleep is all natural. Get up early and get immediate sunlight in to your eyes for at least 20 minutes which sets your clock. Stay busy but not overworked. Read and mediate. Then try not to sleep as the mind is a spoiled little child that will do the opposite of what you want it to do!
Ok, easier said than done. I received a new medication from some online wack-job site which was advertised on facebook. It combines low dose traz with another very low dose tryciclic and an old antihistamine that makes you sleepy. Yes, 3 drugs but all low dose. Will try it tonight. Some drugs make you sleepy but do not improve the quality of sleep while other increase the quality of sleep without making you sleepy. This combination promises to do both. I tried taking low dos benadryl and 1 mg. clonaz....and it worked great as clonaz keeps me asleep while benadrly makes me sleepy.
The best for me is the clonaz but I want to get off of it and it's very difficult to stop. Thankfully I never went past 1 mg.
I have gone cold turkey before and just read all day until I can sleep....when you awaken, no matter what time, get up. Until I'm back to "normal" and then live like a monk and sleep is fine. But who wants to live like a monk?

Only a monk wants to live like a monk. But I hope that new medication you’re taking works for you. Let us know.
