So I've tried Lunesta, Ambien, Xanax Klonopin, Valium, Trazodone 200 mg and a few different other narcotic and non-narcotic medications. I find none of them working for getting me to sleep staying asleep isn't really an issue I don't mind if I get three to six hours of sleep that's more than enough for me but my sleep schedule is so fucked I cannot even keep up with daily tasks and have a steady routine I already suffer from chronic pain from a multitude of different spinal cord injuries and other health conditions and I just want to get some sleep I've been having insomnia for the majority of my life and to say it's been challenging as an understatement. My question is if anybody can recommend a sleeping medication that is very strong and that is fast acting? I was doing some research and I hear barbiturates or a good option but are very hard to get a prescription for a barbiturate nowadays or a very strong benzodiazepine but I already have a tolerance to benzodiazepines I currently take up to 6 mg of Xanax everyday as well as different pain medications I rotate from morphine 30 mg and Opana IR 10 mg to Opana 10mg ir and dilaudid IR 8 mg I'm aware of the respiratory failure that comes with mixing benzodiazepines and opioids but I seem to not have a problem with that with proper management and spacing them apart my pulse ox is usually between 96 and 99 while taking both so I might have a metabolism problem where am I getting the full effects of my medication or my body can just handle it and I've been on both opioids and benzodiazepines for 10 years. If you've been in a similar situation or also suffer from insomnia and have any recommendations on what I should take or ask for I would really appreciate it as I am freaking exhausted with no sleep. Hoping someone has a good recommendation.
