    @lenochka ad my worst i was also awake for days on end ad those bad episode also thinking i am going to die from this the word insomnia is often misused i think people that say the sleep 5 to 6 hours and they say the have insomnia don’t know the first thing about it i can relate what you are saying it’s a living hell i now averages on 2 to 3 hours a night but there are also the many sleepless night and like you i tried everything don’t give up hope yet we are still alive your sleep specialists saying you are going to die is very unprofessional ofcourse this will not increase your sleep the way i dealt with it was just lying there thinking well this can be the night i die and there is nothing i can do about it and in a weird way giving up of letting go relax me and give me some hours of sleep

    @frozensun : i take 7.5 mg and if it not works i may take a extra pill                                                                    but i don’t take it every night cuz if i do the drug seems losses his power                                                              i i call it me emergency pill i only take it when i really need it


    @yellowdiamond
    :yes they tried so many i forgot most of them but zyprexa so far works the best


    @martin
    reed: the did test in sleep clinic but you have to sleep 4 hours for a good diagnosis                          but i barely slept 2 and in those 2 hours i stop breathing for more then 1/3 of the time                                    so if i start sleeping better again i need to go back for a extra sleep study                                                              but sleeping 4 hours doesn’t happen often and those test aren’t cheap                                                                    for an insomniac sleeping all hooked up with wires and a breathing machine good luck

    psychoses i think rarely occur.    my longest i been awake one time was 4 days.    my symptoms were like the flu my heart was beating faster .   i had fever chestpain you name it but i did not start to hallucinate.           my concentration was less I could hardly make sentences or I had to concentrate hard.    and my vision was getting blurry because my eyes feel like the where burning. but before you go in to a psychoses stade i think you need to be awake for even much longer. i hope this gife you some confort

    insomnia dos lower your health you reduce white blood cells, thereby weakening your immune system.    when we sleep we renew our cells that’s why we only grow in our sleep. it all depends on what resurse you look.  some professors describe insomnia as a shortening of your life you can get heart and vascular disease ,diabetic, mental problems, high blood pressure, mental problems, and  increased risk of suicide.

    other studies say that insomnia is not dangerous at all, but to be honest they are based on someone who  was able not to sleep for 11 days when he was 17 that seems to me not really a conclusion. that means we can verify a result in one in 7 billion people the chance is bigger you win the lottery and get hit by lighting at the same time.

    we know what we go threw it is not healthy that’s for sure. is there a quick fix no there is not. i understand you completely (frozensun) there is only one person in the world that knows his or her body better than any doctor in the world that’s yourself when your are sick your are sick.

    me point of view is there are gradations in insomnia. the less you sleep the worse you feel. trust me i know what you go thru.   it i also can be awake for days then sleep a little and the cirkel repeats is hell i know.  but you are not alone with this shit.

    the sleep cursus is cbt training in group and is given at the hospital.   i only went 2 times and is every week for 2 so i gave a lot more to go.    every thing the tell me i already know we have time to look stuff up.              i need to do sleep restriction but what restriction if you have so many sleepless night.   for me is the fear of not sleeping again is so strong it keeps me awake for days.    i just can’t seem to take control of that fear is killing me.   insomnia literally feels like you are slowly dying the docs say me case is a bad one is most insomniacs are able to sleep a couple hours a night every night for me is will i sleep or not, mostly not. and the other fear is this i will not get old whit this chit it is sortinging and controling me life in every way.
