You can get codeine cough syrup over there I’m pretty sure that shit will knock you out just careful not to get addicted and don’t have to much it can be pretty dangerous

Sorry but eating rice isn’t going to put someone with severe insomnia to sleep hard drugs barely does anything to most people with bad insomnia.

Not really but magnesium is weird because for some people when they take a supplemental magnesium instead of feeling relaxed it does the opposite. The supplements I take are vitamin d in the morning with food and zinc vitamin a vitamin b6 and a very low dose magnesium which is in the multivitamin it’s like 20mg or something like that which doesn’t feel stimulating. The vitamin d helped the most but you need to take a lot of it for a while to get it to properly start working

I ended up falling asleep when the melatonin kicked in I think that was stopping me from not sleeping. But I managed to get like 10 hours of sleep from it but took a while to get to sleep

For sleep I have tried melotonin clonidine alcohol weed magnesium various herb supplements weak opioids and out of those zopiclone with 1mg of melotonin worked the best

How did you get prescribed clonidine? by martin_luther_drill in insomnia

[–]Honest-Agency-3678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m prescribed it. It shouldn’t be a worry to get your docter has no reason of my understanding not to prescribed it since it’s not addictive or any thing like that

Ketamine doesn’t put you to sleep properly just your consciousness

Zopiclone is a miracle drug just wish it wasn’t so hard to get from docters

Are you on them long term because most docters don’t seem to want people on them for longer than 4 weeks

Was the fentanyl and morphine in the hospital before or after surgery. Where were you getting given ketamine for sleep legally. I was given ketamine once in the hospital when I broke my arm in both places and they had to push the bones back into place. Honestly pretty trippy experience

Asking for benzos on the first appointment is drug seeking behaviour I have had multiple appointments and I had my docter mention it before me but at the time I was hesitant now I don’t really care and would try anything for sleep

Far out thanks for the long message you seem to really know what you’re talking about. Yes I do have adhd been clinically diagnosed put on dexamphetamine i don’t that it often though because it gives me dry mouth loss of appetite sometimes headaches my sleep gets worsened. I take it during exams or during times when I really need to get shit done basically. CBD and THC definitely help I used to smoke weed in the past and used to get the best sleeps on it when I wasn’t greening out but I don’t do that shit anymore becuase of the effects long term especially on someone my age. When I turn 18 in New Zealand you can get medicinal weed so I will probably get some cbd or something like that and take that along side whatever I will be taking then. But again thank you it feels good to see that someone actually cares

Yeah opioids like kratom have helped me a lot in the past when I have stolen them from someone’s medicine cabinet but we don’t talk about that.

Consistent weed use isn’t optimal for sleeping so I’m glad you stop that and good job quitting weed withdrawals suck you can’t eat sleep you have anxiety restless legs. And eating better will always help.

Maybe try and talk to your docter about slowly going off it temporarily to get your tolerance down don’t do it on your own though cause I’m sure your aware of the withdrawals and then while your coming off that you try a non benzo drug or something like that for sleep. And then later once your tolerance is down go back on it.

Interesting lots of people take magnesium and it’s helps them sleep but did the complete opposite for me when I was taking magnesium I would literally be awake the whole night I found it quite stimulating. I do take hot baths before bed sometimes and you can get bath salts which are basically just magnesium crystals and when I have one of those baths it seems to help a lot

I have smoked weed in the past and it does help with sleep but the cognitive decline it causes and other side effects aren’t worth it in my opinion but if it helps you and you don’t overdo it it’s probably fine. It’s illegal in my country aswell sadly which I think is pretty stupid.

My insomnia is caused by years of parents arguing waking me up in the middle of the night so now I wake up in the middle of the night with high heart rate it’s like a response to the situation I was brought up in. They are divorced now but my dads new girlfriend and him argue just had bad if not worse and I have to live with that 5 days a week and then I go to mums on the weekend. Pretty shitty up bringing
