@lilybell My first question is to why the tapering off? Is it because of side effects and are you working with your doctor on a tapering off plan?

I was on sleep meds for years and noticed that my anxiety and depression worsened and my body no longer knew how to sleep. If one has been on sleep meds for years then the tapering off process will also take years.

Some things I’ve tried is medical marijuana but not good for me. I’ve also tried CBD oil with no THC along with 1mg of melatonin. Please take care.

Tapering off the diazepam because it was prescribed for sleep but is not working anymore for me. I want to come off zolpidem as my body is so used to them that I need 20-30mg a night. I want to get back to sleeping without them or at least not have to take so much. I get many side effects from them. No dr is helping me, they don’t know how. I’ve reached out to several.

In my country cbd is forbidden.

Thank you for your reply.
