Hello, I'm so sorry... it is hell to not get proper sleep. And when you don't get proper sleep, it makes your whole life hell. I wish doctors weren't so against prescribing benzodiazepines for sleep because I'd suggest upping the Lorazepam to 1-1.5 mg per night, or switching the Lorazepam (Ativan) to Flurazepam. Flurazepam is THE BEST sleep medication ever. It would work if you could convince your doctor to let you try it. I used it and took 15mg some nights and 30mg other nights. If your doctor won't up your Ativan or let you try Flurazepam, then you should try Ambien. It works great for many people. But for someone like you having extreme difficulty getting sleep, and your doctor isn't willing to prescribe something that will most likely work very well for you, Flurazepam,..... SHAME ON HIM OR HER! You are obviously suffering severely because of this problem and a doctor who isn't willing to let you try a medication that might help you, is in my mind a bad doctor. I also take Amitriptyline 30mg. along with the Lorazepam. Adding Amitriptyline may help you, but if I were you, I'd push to get the Flurazepam. Good luck to you. 🙏❤
