Ramelton

Signs and symptoms
1

I started this drug last night.

I'm not sure about it.

But, I think I always get anxiety when I start new drugs (not knowing what they will do to me).

My typical sleep pattern is:

Bed at 12:30...up at 1:30, 2:30, 3:30, 5:30, 6:30, 7, & 7:30 up for good.

Last night with Ramelton:

Bed at 12:00, up at 2:30, 5:30....AND THEN 8:30 for good.

So I guess it is working.

But, I did take 1/2 of doxylamine (over the counter sleep aide) with it at around 12:30 because i wasn't sleeping and I had taken Ramelton at 11:20.

I will post about tonights sleep...cause if it works...it is a safe drug...not a benzo (but it is considered a sedative)....and it can be taken for long periods of time.

And...it may help others like it appears it may be helping me.

Great, Misssy. Ramelteon is non habit-forming. It's a form of melatonin.

Keep me posted on its efficacy.

Love Tess

Its not a form of melatonin...but it works ON the melatonin receptors...not quite sure what it does to them..LOL...but it is the only drug on the market for sleep that does this.

Some people take Melatonin with it.

My problem with Melatonin is I spend all morning in the bathroom from it...so I can't take it anymore.

Yeah, you're right. I got it mixed up.

Still hoping it works for you, hun.

Love Tess xxxx

It makes me dizzy...so far (just what I need to be more dizzy)...LOL.

I tried to take a nap and I couldn't SLEEP.

I hate not getting enough rest, trying to be sober, tring to do everything right ..and not getting the results I want.
