I am new here so I hope I don't mess up. I tried to post earlier but it didn't work. First of all it's nice to be here I hope I can help you out some day. Now to my problem...No sleep!! I try, I do, but I fight it. I take 20mg Lexapro, 10mg Ambien, 100mg Topamax, 50 Vistaril, 150mg Seroquel and optional Ativan. I recently came off Restoril because my doc didn't know I was on it. What time I think I am asleep my husband says I'm fighting and trying to "kill" people. Talking and yelling. And every morning he goes in the kitchen and I have emptied out the cabinets or cooked. I don't remember any of this, he's afraid I'm gonna burn down the house! I'm usually in bed only 4 hours because I HATE to go to bed because I know I will not sleep. I am past the positive thinking thing. The other night I played pharmacy and made myself a cocktail of Ativan,Vicodan and Restoril just to get to sleep. About 3 pills of each. Surprised I woke up! Do you have any suggestions I can make to my doctor. I see a therapist at his office every week; have for over a year. BTW...I have read many of the post and I think I'm gonna love this place.
