I have chronic insomnia for 30 years now. I started taking ambien after my mother and son were killed. I stopped taking ambien over a year ago thinking when it got out of my system I might have a normal sleep pattern. 💤 I average 2 hours sleep a night and 2 nights a week don't sleep at all. I am exhausted after a year and am still expected to drive and get out every day. When I asked this new doctor to get back on it I am told no and made to feel like I am drug seeking. I just NEED sleep and if this is how I am going to have to live it is just too miserable!! The Fibro pain is bad but can be tolerated with rest. Without rest it is just not worth it...

      I'm in the same boat. I know gabapentin helps me at night a little and benadryl
