Hi, @num1boxer1919 - I'd like to invite @contentandwell @maryshipley @rachelanne @sndishpr to return to the conversation, since they may have some thoughts for you on what works best for anxiety and insomnia, and whether they may have seen these medications stop working effectively over time. I imagine fragmented sleep can't feel restful.
@sleepy0 - are you thinking of trying the clonazepam for a while yet to see if it starts working for the racing mind at night, or are you looking at asking your doctor for something else?
@gloriajean - did you end up taking melatonin? How is your sleep going lately?
@marcellal - how are things going with staying asleep at night?

@lisalucier I have never taken anything on a daily basis, so I really cannot answer this. I have been having a lot of trouble sleeping here at my son’s home in Denver so I did go back to bed yesterday and took a lorazepam, and I had a hard time last night too so I took a half of a Benadryl. Both of these do help but I would not use either frequently. I had been doing well with sleep at home recently so no need for anything. My first choice, if I know when I am heading to bed, is 3mg of melatonin but I forgot to bring them.
