Coming off Zopiclone

Hello All,

I have bouts of insomnia two to three times a year ranging from a month to several months where I'm awake more nights than I sleep and when I do sleep it's a hour or two. Tried zopiclone and it did more damage than good (massive bouts of emotional drama followed by a couple of hours of unconciousness), tried several sleepy AD's such as dolesuplin, mirtazipine and Amityptline with no luck or side effects that I couldn't live with. Last year my specialist proscribed me Promethazine which is a sleepy antihistamine, works everytime without side effects or grogginess in the morning, absolutely fantastic.

Best part, they're not addictive, I can take them for a couple of months and then come off no problems. I'd honestly think about speaking to your doctor and giving them a go before taking anymore of the heavy duty ones.
