Im terrified of not sleeping, seriously, getting anxiety attacks and probably going to get back on anti-depressants. Has anyone been through this. Starting to think Im going to end up in the hospital.

What kind of sleeping pills? If prescription you can transition to melatonin first then ween off of that
PranksterLad 5y ago
Zopiclone is what I am on. I use to take Kelmz which is natural but stopped working.

that shit is highly addictive. You will have to go through withdrawl. Talk to your doctor about it.
PranksterLad 5y ago
Really, shit, how, what is it?
vandaalen 5y ago
You are taking a drug and don't know what it is and aren't educated on the possible side-effects and if it will make you addicted to it? Why would you do something like that?

Because at the time I was and am desperate for sleep, you have no idea. Not getting sleep and being awake for hours and working makes one want to kill himself.
You call a doctor, and do what they say and give you.

To the contrary I have a pretty good idea. I know it sounds funny, but it really wasn't.
I unknowingly suffered from side effects from nasal spray and couldn't sleep for longer than one hour (if at all) for over one week. In the end I only fell asleep to directly startle up again.
Worst week of my life.
Still no excuse to not educate yourself once you slept again. this shit is only addictive when used long teerm.

Hey man,
As someone who got off zopiclone, please help me come off or fix this.
I will try building adequate sleep drive through the day, in fact, I tried this yesterday. I cut off caffeine yesterday at like 2:00, I was exhausted the day before from gym. I put my phone outside my room before bed, like Im trying, but my mind doesn’t switch off.
I work from 9 to 5. I cooked dinner when I get home, but it’s just not working, something MENTALLY is wrong with me. I told my doctor this and they put me on 3.5 Zopiclone one tablet a night, this wasn’t working - so what did I do. I took two. Still fall asleep at 4am. I don’t get it. I don’t understand. I put my phone outside my room and it still doesn’t work.
I am worried about sleep, most of all, im terrified of looking like a zombie the next day which I am and do. I am going to the doctor tonight, maybe they will put me on other sleeping pills, maybe they will do nothing, Im going to ask for a serotonin level and testosterone level test. This can’t go on.
One thing I keep reading about is 5HTP which is natural and good for sleep. I’m scared, im terrified, im new in my job and on my probation. I don’t know if I should tell my manager or if I should just leave it or fight it out or anything.
Please help me, anything I should/shouldn’t say tonight to my doctor. I feel like they aren’t even going to help anyways.

Bro,
The L-Theanine Supplement 250mg arrived today with the Ashwanghanda Organic. When do I take them, how does this work?
PranksterLad 5y ago
Do I take L-Theanine Supplement 250mg and Ashwaganda in morning or night, do I need diazepam or any of the other shit, anti depressants? They gave me celexa.

Hey man,
I gratefully appreciate your reply man, why, because I am fucking struggling. Genuinely. You taking zopiclone at that dosage is a bit fucked up to be honest, I started off at 3.5mg per night and now it no longer works. I don’t know if this is the jet lag coming into play as I got back from Canada to the UK last Thursday but Zopiclone was a miracle for me in Canada. Now back in the UK… it doesn’t even work, I upped my dose to taking 3.5 in one night and I fall asleep at 4am and wake up at 7am for work… this has been going on now for a few days that I am starting to go insane.
To add to this and to reply to your question at the bottom, this is a new job for me… I am on probation and cannot just ask for time off, I was thinking about telling my manager today about what’s going on with me but just said I am a bit jet lagged. I feel my heart just beating so heavy in my chest I feel like I have a panic attack coming.
Additionally to add to this, I have a doctors appointment tonight - great to hear that it won’t do jack shit for me. The doctors in the Uk are f*king sht anyways. The worst of it all is - I think tonight I am going to ask for the following:
I will then also ask about 5HTP and anti-depressants and if I should be on them.
Why did they say you can’t taper off Zopiclone? Fuck - can you?
I am 26 in London, working a new job, not sure what to do. Melatolin isn’t even sold here in the UK so I am so confused.

Hey man,
Can you tell me how you came off zopiclone step by step, would really really help me and calm me down as I keep going back to my doctor to ask for more pills/prescriptions. I'll be going today to get it.
I cannot take any time off work as I have just joined and am on my probation, this may be causing some of the stress I have right now.
Is 14 days really not that link, surely if I keep on going on it, its going to fuck me up sooner rather than later?
PranksterLad 5y ago
Okay, well I only have 6 days left off zopiclone tablets and have been on it for 14 days. Is that enough to get addictive?
If you could help me fix this I’d be gracious.
