Which is stronger for sleep?

Posted by bobby on July 24, 2005, at 23:03:59

Benzos or barbituates--wow about Valiun. Serax doesn't work well nor respideral, Ativan and Kolopin. i need some deep sleep. I hear opium does well--but where in the world would I get that? Afgainstand(sp?)

Barbituates are scary stuff if used even slightly wrongly -- stay away from them.

You want sleep brother?

Try this

Seroquel 400mg
Clonidine 1mg

Mogadon- 10=15mg
Remeron 15-30mg


Plenty more too!

Mogadon works well for me. For sleeping anyway. They are a longer acting benzo so they usually knock you out for a good 6-8 hrs. I suppose the only other benzo stronger than that for sleeping is rohypnol but most countries have made that illegal now. Seroquel and Zyprexa which are anti psych's knock me out cold and leave me feeling like the walking dead the next day, I hate them. Good luck.

Deep sleep? I need deep sleep too. Xyrem, is it, is supposed to make sleep deeper. Opiates can, in the right doses. What do I use? Some sedative herbs that are OK for depressives, a joint, and 2.5mg Valium. Not hugely effective, but feels OK.

I think I'm going to try 10mg Valium and 30mg Restoril. I sure miss weed but I've got Kids now and a law abiding wife. Maybe i can score some barbituates from Doc.

 

I use doxepin (a tca) and it works great!... » Bobby

Only 25mg about 30 min. before bedtime. I'm also on Klonopin .5mg and I take them at the same time before bed.

Good luck!

Hi colleen. does doxepin help at all with your ocd, have you ever taken a higher dose specifically for ocd? i ask because my pdoc wanted to try me on doxepin opne time instead of prozac for depression and ocd. i'm really happy it helps you sleep, have a good night....john berk
