Bed Time Combination

[jmd149]

I want to try a new bedtime cocktail for My severe Insomnia. I usually just take 400 Mg. of Seroquel.
It eventually works, but I hate the ankle "twitching". Gonna try taking my other meds. with It.

1) 7.5 Mg. Norco
2) 2 Mg. Klonopin
3) 350 Mg. Soma
Since I take these anyway, I don't foresee any problems, just a really "DEEP SLEEP"
Does Anyone have any Input on this?

Regards,

Drop the toxic Seroquel shit and leave that for inmates and psychopathic killers. You're already on opiates, benzos, and muscle relaxers ---what else do you need lol!?

Surprisingly your dosages are low/moderate but watch out for addiction as you know..Believe it or not Soma addiction is up there with benzo wds... My recommendation is make sure to fully hydrate and exercise daily to increase energy expenditure...I suffer from insomnia too, albeit every medication that works is so addicting. You probably don't have access to it but the best sleep aid is naGHB....

How long have you been using these drugs for? I remember 12.5mgs of Ambien CR was the most effective for the first week and then turned into a 2 year addiction eating handfuls. I cold-turkeyed that one and it resulted in 4 days of alligator tossing in my bed.

Thanks for the Reply! To answer your question, been on Seroquel since 2005. Started out on 25 Mg. and slept GREAT!
But as we all know, became tolerant, and had to keep Increasing dosage. 100/200/300, then 400.

The others since 2010. I used to take Xanax for anxiety/ PTSD, but ran out twice and had 2 seizures, very scary.
Dumped the Xanax in Favor of Klonopin per My shrink, works well and more stable. Also lasts longer (40-60 hr. 1/2 life)
The Seroquel makes my ankles "twitch", also gained 20-25 lbs. Tried Ambien, but doesn't work for Me?

The "USUAL" sleep meds. don't work all night for me. I'll fall asleep, but wake up at 3AM and toss and turn.
With the Seroquel, as much as I hate it, It does keep Me asleep ALL NIGHT LONG, once it kicks in

Where can I obtain naGHB?
Thanks for the Input!

Has Anyone tried Belsomra? Any good results? It's fairly new, so My Insurance doesn't cover it yet
since there is no Generic, and It's quite expensive, but if it works I would pay to ditch the Seroquel!

Everyone says get rid of the Seroquel, but I disagree.
I had horrible insomnia my whole life. Sleep is not the reason I wasout on seroquel but I havent had a single bad night since I was put on it 11 months ago. It's the best of what I've had (except benzo's ie Vallium/Klonopin).
I'm currently giving benzo's a break as I was taking up to 10 xanax 1mg and 10 Klonopin 2mg every day, plus (at night) 20mg Ambien, which I considered a dependancy.

My cuurent night time meds are:
Seroquel 500mg
Tramadol 200mg
Cyclizine 150mg
Metoclopromide 30mg
Trazodone 250mg
Keppra 1000mg
