I used Ambien for many years and stopped cold turkey. Substituted with Benadryl initially so my body could sleep again.
Last night I did actually fall back asleep and got up at 6:15. I actually went to bed at 10:30 a.m. because with this great a sleep deficit, I am having a hard time staying awake at night. So while I did not immediately fall asleep after awakening at 1:30 a.m., I know I did fall back asleep relatively quickly. What time I get out of bed to start my day does vary a bit. There are days I have “started” my day at 3 a.m. by beginning to do some work or fold laundry or read. Which is insanely depressing. I never get out of bed after 6:15 a.m. I don’t know if a later bed time works for sleep maintenance issues? No matter what I seem to wake up at 1:30 a.m. no matter how much or how little water I have had to drink in the early evening.
