Sleeping Update

The last two nights, I have slept over 8 hours. The current solution is 2 adavan, It's quite possible that my insomnia demon will find a way around this, but I'll take the vacation!!

I used to take 1 - 2 mg of Ativan for sleep. It is extremely effective. :-)

I had problem sleeping. I took two naps in the daytime one in the morning and one in the the afternoon. When I went to bed at night 11 o'clock I would wake up at two or three. I tried not to take any naps and do my sleep in at night time. This was hard but it worked. I hope this idea may work for you. jimmy jay

This is only my opinion, Lorazepam just has too many side effects for me to take. What works for sleep for me is one or two puffs of marijuana and no side effects. Just my opinion and experience and I sleep like a baby! I've had PD fpr 10 years and tried a number of things and most of them still had me waking up during the night, not cannabis.
