I had heard about CBT-I for some time and was glad to find Martin's website and course. Even as a child of 10 I remember never being able to take naps when all the other children did. I can't fall asleep (shouldn't be so negative) but once I do, I sleep. So through the years I have become a Restoril addict! I worry about what this pharmaceutical could be doing to my brain. I definitely don't want to have dementia in my later years. So I am really looking forward to learning the CBT-I techniques that will help me fall asleep on my own.

Hi Vic, I have been off 1 mg of clonzapam, another deadly benzo since May 1 after an agonizing 7 week taper. Even though I was only on it for less than 3 months I was told my brain will be effected with sleep disturbance(problems falling and staying asleep)for another 6 months! I found this sleep website only a few weeks ago but think it has helpful sleep info. And….our related sleep issues go beyond cognitive therapy. You might want to checkout “point of return” website who deals specifically with benzo, sleep and antidepressant issues. Good luck!
I wouldn’t put too much importance on the fact you couldn’t nap when you were a child, Vic — my 3-year-old hasn’t napped since turning 2! Are you managing to taper off the Restoril?
