Nytol

Hi i am going through a bad phase at the moment with my job and family causing anxiety and have become reliant on Nytol 50mg to get to sleep i am also on Citalopram 40mg and take propranolol occasionally. I have been taking nytol for about 5 weeks now and feel when i stop i will get rebound insomnia and not able to function properly.

My sleeping schedule seems to get messed up and i want to sleep during the day and cannot at night so i use nytol and have been doing so on and off for for several years now.
I do shift work sometimes and I used to cope

I was wondering is it better to force myself to stay up for even a couple of days to force my sleep back to night time . Has anyone else become reliant on nytol and i really wonder about the long term effects of this sleep aid (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) and what are risks.I have been through insomnia before and realise that it is symptom of anxiety and depression so if you improve your anxiety insomnia usually recedes and things fall back in to place.

I don't want medication in my life or as little as possible and get back to the way I was before
I have now been prescribed Zoplicone for sleeping and will be strict with my sleeping habits
