Aaaahhh Can't sleep Aaaahhh!!!

0 Recommendations

The past couple of months have been stressful.
I have insomnia caused my POTS and it has just been driving me crazy! I have all this extra adrenaline running through my body during the day that by night I either don't fall asleep at all, or by the time I do fall asleep the sun is starting to rise. Aaaaaahhhhhhh!!
This has been going on for three years and I am tired.
I thought it went away in January but it has only returned with a vengance! I was taking Temazapam which worked wonders but now it seems that I have become immune to it, I can take the max dose and still be up all night. I have tried other meds like ambian and zolpidem both made me feel horrible. I am at a loss of what else to do I just want rest.
I would really like to go to a sleep clinic but my prime doc thinks he can fix it just by adding even more pills to my ever growing list of medication.

Any suggestions as to what might help me get a good night of sleep tonight?
