Hi @fluffykitty, I am curious to know if you've had any sleep issues and if so, are you doing or taking anything to help fight this off?

As I mentioned, I'm taking CBD and Melatonin at night for varying degrees of success for sleep specifically. It's not bulletproof but it absolutely helps. If I could get a handle on my sleep issues I think I'd be set.

I'm also using the Headspace app. They have some great guided meditations on both sleep and anxiety. I highly recommend both packs.

Thanks.

Good morning @gettingbetter75 I am doing better sleeping. When I first tapered I would wake up 3 hrs. later. Then take a couple hrs to go back to sleep. I had to turn my clock away from me so as not to look at the time.

I try not to look at any electronic devices at least 2 hours before bed. And I take Melatonin, 5 ml with my .25 ml Clonazepam. Also in the past I listen to Letting Go of Stress CD. By Emmett Miller and Stephen Halpern both MD and PH. D. I like the muscle relax/tension one. These helped me a lot. Also I walk a lot in the fresh air and try to get tired everyday.

Thanks for the heads up on the Headspace app. @gettingbetter75
