Amitriptalyne and Temazepam, still no sleep

10mg of both last night still only 1-2 hrs sleep.

Hi Richard,

Do you try anything else to sleep?

Mindfullness/meditation before bed?

Ed

No not really. Some deep breathing but no joy.

Would love to offer advice if you’d like?

Why do you feel you can’t sleep? Stuff on your mind/pain?? 

There’s always an alternative that won’t make you feel groggy the next day or cause your body damage.  We pop

Pills far too easily looking for a quick fix. Pills can work short term but I have benefitted much more from other avenues than pills.

Easy to get addicted to these pills but I promise they will mess your insides up in the long term.

There are reasons behind you not sleeping and pills aren’t the answer.

No reason I can think of. Did have a crazy panic attack in January but feel fine now except I cannot sleep. I have plenty that I need to do and want to do just too tired during the day

Have you tried meditating before bed? 

I have had problems sleeping for a while. Came off the pills a while ago and been a struggle but meditation / mindfullness has helped a lot. Do it just before sleeping and puts me in a relaxed mood before bedtime. Certainly helped me a lot with sleeping.

Worth a try?
