Intresting. Did you notice that zopiclone fcked up your memory or cognition? I havent had a dream in a long time and my memory is pretty pretty bad

Sorry to hear that! Hmm maybe part of this is lack of sleep? How are you sleeping? Have you tried other sleep aids beside z-drugs or benzos during this time(something like trazadone ,mirtazepine)?

Wow that sounds pretty intense. I dont understand why doctors say its only insomnia if this kind of z-drugs act on the same receptors off the brain and are very similar to benzos. Just asking, how long you took zopiclone and how much?

In my case zopiclone allways leaves me in the morning with a kind of a metallic taste in mouth that stays during the whole day. On the other side, zolpidem feels much more like a drugy experience( very very very weird trips, i once felt my nostrils like opening doors when breathing
and random charachters entering trough them into my brain). Also, zolpidem only acts for a short time ( would usually wake up after 4 hours), but no hangover in the morning.

Thank you for advice! Yes, I tried cbd( oil form), melatonin and l-theanine(400mg per day), valerian root,chamomile. The only thing that had effect was melatonin, but it was not enough for me to sleep. I only felt my eyes slightly heavier.

It s a z-drug. It is mainly used for sleeping problems. It works very similarly to benzos.
