Welcome to Insomnia Land and thanks for introducing yourself.
I'd love to know more about the biofeedback/neurofeedback – perhaps you could start a new discussion topic describing your experience with this type of treatment? I am sure a lot of our members would find it very useful and interesting.
I look forward to reading more of your posts and getting to know you better.

You know you need more sleep when you think 3:01 is a cable channel and not the current time.

Thanks for sharing, Groggy – I am sure many others reading this seek comfort in your posts. One of the biggest frustrations of insomnia is the feeling of isolation. At Insomnia Land, you're among a lot of support and understanding.
Normally, it's a good idea to try avoiding daytime naps – the more 'sleep pressure' you can build, the more likely you are to regain a 'normal' sleep routine.
That being said, it's all about what works for you and what makes you feel good.
No lectures here – just understanding.

Welcome to Insomnia Land – if you got this far, then your application was approved! I apologize that you didn't get a confirmation email. Maybe it was late and it slipped my mind, or perhaps it went to your junk folder by mistake.
The most important thing is you made it – so thank you for joining us and introducing yourself.
Oh, and Happy New year!

Most sleeping drugs here don't come particularly well recommended. It tends to be a scenario of the lesser of two evils – either you live with the effects of sleep deprivation or pop the pills and get some semblance of sleep in return for a drug hangover and grogginess the next day.
If you take a search through this section of the forum, you'll see quite a few medications mentioned but I'll post this discussion in the next insomniac bulletin and hopefully some more members will chime in with their experience of specific medications.
It'll certainly be helpful to draw the various discussions into one central 'resource'.

You're probably best off starting a new discussion thread regarding klonopin – new discussion subjects with their own topic will get the most views and are likelier to get a response.
Do you suffer from anxiety/panic attacks or was the klonopin prescribed solely for your insomnia?

Are you referring to the color green, or the environmentally friendly green?
If it's the color:
A couple of years ago I wrote about research that found green light resets our internal body clocks, which can affect our sleep.
Here's the blog post: http://www.insomnialand.com/blog/green-light-may-be-influencing-your-insomnia/
Here's the original news report: http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/2010-05-13-sleep13_ST_N.htm
As for the environmentally friendly green – I would imagine LED lightbulbs affect sleep just as much as regular bulbs since they expose us to artificial light, thus affecting our body clocks. If this is the angle you meant, can you point me to the study – I'd be interesting in learning how the authors of the study found LED lightbulbs to me more damaging to sleep than regular lightbulbs or artificial light.

Welcome to Insomnia Land, Krystal.
Getting off the sleeping pills is absolutely possible. You cannot give up on this, if this is your aim.
Have you tried alternative techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy? You may find our free sleep training helpful – it's based on CBT and sleep hygiene. At the very least, you should see some improvements in your sleep if you follow the advice in the course.
Keep in touch, and I look forward to reading more of your posts.
