I suffer so bad I take about ten OTC..  and they never work. My doctor stopped my temezapam 30mg which has been the only thing that works. They can use all others on me and all these pills when I know what works. It makes me so sad because the longer I go without sleep I can’t deal with shit

You need help and pills are not the answer. You did not need pills before you had insomnia and you do not need pills now to get over this condition. The problem is psychological, therefore the solution is also psychological and is not in your physiology. That’s why pills don’t work. There’s nothing wrong with your brain chemistry so you don’t need a drug. The answer is in getting the right kind of therapy specifically for insomnia – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). Find a therapist in your local area who specializes in CBT-I or hire Martin Reed, the founder of this website. He helped me tremendously and I am now sleeping 7 hours a night. Also, read Sasha Stephen’s book, The Effortless Sleep Method.

I’m sorry to hear about your struggles with sleep. You are not alone. Many people here can relate to what you are going through.

If those 10 over-the-counter meds aren’t working, why do you take them? Have you talked to your doctor about a long-term solution for insomnia that doesn’t rely on medication?

CBT for insomnia (CBT-I) has been proven time and time again to be the best long-term solution for insomnia and it is recommended as the first-line treatment for insomnia by professional organizations such as the National Institutes of Health, the American College of Physicians, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, and the British Association for Psychopharmacology.
