Well I took a tablet last night and slept a few hrs, maybe 5hrs which at the moment is nice. The sleep felt quite restful. I may just take it again tonight and then not the next night sort of thing for not much more than a week. Hopefully I will then be able to get "some natural" sleep without the zispen.
Tom how long did it eventually take to be able to get some sleep without the zispen on the nights when you do not take the sleeping table? and if you were able to sleep was the sleep of a deaent quality?
My aim if it is possible is to take as little medication as possible in order to live a satisfactory - goodish life with just the lamictal. But its fair to say that this is inpossible with the extent of insomnia expereinced lately.
Thanks for the idea ED-UK but I tried just taking a little zispen last time I tried to come of the zispen and it didn't work, I never really felt the zispen had any sedative effects after the first month. It helped some with my depression but it was not until I was put on the lamictal that I did feel good at times. But I was angry alot of the time, and have been sice taking zispen so I really want to get off this if poss, hopefully I will not need to take a conventinal AD, time will tell.
Thanks guys, it really helps. During the sleepless nights I find I feel really alone and agitated, which contributes just as much to the insomnia than the zispen withdrawl, I feel alot of this is in my head so to speak.
Thanks again.
