Couldn't sleep and was in mild-moderate opioid withdrawal so decided to take a tiny dose - way smaller than I ever thought to take before - and tried about 1/4 of a 150mg. Amazing for sleep! I totally get what they say about the lower the dose the better it is for sleep now. I'm not getting the awful next-day lethargy or crazy appetite at this dose either.
I'd much rather be using a z-drug, but it's cool for now. Means I can take more DHC during the day as I don't have to save it to help me sleep so much.
Trying to sleep in mild opioid withdrawal sucks. It's a mind fuck because during the day you feel as though the mild symptoms are managble and that you'll be able to get through, but then you go to lay in bed at night to fall asleep and your body just won't let itself shut off and sleep.
I took Ambien years ago and it was fine until one night when I was almost about dozing off and started dreaming before I was actually sleeping. That was the end of that stuff.Had some weed and Ambien for a bit of a trippy night before I nodded off to sleep. Gotta say I don't get much of the "Ambien walrus" from Ambien alone but the weed brings out the trippy side of z-drugs for me including zopiclone too.
I wish i could do that ... get lost in a book for hours. Lately, there's too many thoughts that bombard me and I can't concentrate for the life of me. It's extremely frustrating. I really want to acrylic pour and I have all the stuff.. I just have to do it!Yeah, during the day when I'm feeling shitty I'll go out for a cigarette and then try and got lost in a book (I can do this for like 3 or 4 hours and totally "forget" being sick if the book's really good) but at night there's no distractions. I consider myself lucky that in the later stages of withdrawal I get what someone on here told me was "yen sleep" where I can suddenly sleep for like 17 hours.

I used to do that but I'm at the point now that I just get up and do something else. Usually something physical that doesn't take much concentration.Same with the thoughts, it's why I usually have so much trouble sleeping. But when I'm reading the book occupies my mind (sometimes the intrusive thoughts insist on creeping in but I just try and ignore them as best I can).
