Ty I’m just sick of being tired n in pain
It becomes a vicious circle, you can't sleep because of the pain then because you don't get any proper sleep it makes the pain worse. Sleeplessness is one of our symptoms. It's a right pain.😀

You can get help with that Sleep is important when you have fibromyalgia
• in reply tobobbybobb
Hello if you can’t get sleep you may need to consult your doctor and try to get some help I my self take loranzapam but I am hooked on them , but at least I get sleep No one can sleep with pain we get specially in our legs a feet My GP and the Hospitial have advised me that sleep is very important for people with fibromyalgia There is also a cream I use called Dennis forty 5% from the doctor this helps me too a lot 👌

Not quit sure if that was a joke bobby bobb ( you said it’s a right pain) 😁You could ask your GP for help but you need to diagnosed with Fibromyalgia I’m assuming you have so you could ask for some kind of sleeping meds
bobbybobb• in reply to
Yes I have Fibro. I tried sleeping tablets from the GP. You can't take them every night and although they are useful for many people, I didn't have much success with them. So they are not an answer in the long term but for some can offer short term respite. x
I know what you mean no really understands unless you have it, don't you just love the brain fog go into a room then think what did I come in here for?🥺 , oh god some times you have to laugh or else you'll cry 😭.

Hi, Tillymac40, can you reply?to me 😊please ?
Why have you hidden?
I'm scared to try and sleep tonight as the last 2 nights I've had zopiclone, I normally drink pukka bedtime tea which does help but I get 10 zopiclone a month and ate them in just over 24 hours so now my brain will be waiting for zopiclone tonight
Just worrying about not sleeping makes me panic
Oh and nearly two months ago my boyfriend dumped me as I couldn't sleep when he was in bed with me unless I had zopiclone, his snoring, farting and pile scratching kept me awake more, yes pile scratching, shaking the bed scratching his ass,
he said I don't spend enough time with him as always go home to my cat and I don't spend enough time overnight at his as due to my sleep issue, he was pissed off I'd leave his soon as I got up so I could go home to my cat to let him out, yes I prefer my cat to him and he knew it lol I can sleep with my cat on my bed that made him so annoyed lol
Same boyfriend that said I only ache as I don't do anything but lay on settee, wish he knew I had fibromyalga all along and that's why my sleep is messed up and I ache and have no energy
I do t even miss him he gives me "the ick" I'm just so fuming mad my sleep problem has a reason because he blamed me
Insomnia is horrible, sorry I rambled
Try pukka bedtime tea, or ask your doctor for zopiclone but take 1 a night not loads like me I have a high tolerance to downers
• in reply to
All these things are all part of fibromyalgia ire horrible you have to try work you way round it 😊
You really need to speak to your GP about the amount of Zopiclone you've been taking. There is a huge risk from taking a higher amount of any medication you're on, whether prescription or over the counter.
Please, please be careful. - I say this out of concern for you.
Have you ever tried any of the herbal remedies, or things like lavender oil etc? xx
• in reply toM0AL61
I'm not taking zopiclone again and if I do it's prescribed dose as I don't want another day like last time
Lavender spray gives me nightmares, I've tried valarian but it only helps in high doses so I don't take it anymore apart from in pukka bedtime tea, I've tried other herbs too but none help,
I've picked up my prescription of mirtazapine again, I will take that on occasion but don't want addicted to that again as I can't afford the crazy appetite they give me, my food needs to last incase we go into lockdown, thanks for the advice though x
Zopliclone made made into a zombie. It's horrible and very addictive
• in reply toSusieSquirrel
I was addicted to them for about 3 months once cuz my doctor accidentally prescribed 3 boxes for one month instead of one box for 3 months lol
I then asked just give me ten a month instead of of a box of 28 every 3 months to make it easier,
Coming off them was hard, had to use loads of valarian root tablets and other otc sleep pills
After yesterday's depression I'm done with zopiclone
Thankyou, he'd get poo all over his pajama bottoms from how much he dug his ass out lol I seen in his laundry hamper once when I helped him move that's how I know
I want to tell my doctor to take zopiclone off my repeat but then I remember what it's like to try and sleep in bed with a man and might need them again when I meet someone, I'm glad you're all not like that
Yes but you can get help with that from your GP That’s what I done. X
Fibromyalgia takes over you life but there are ways round it if you get the correct medications
If cats make you happy what’s the problem need sleep I can help you with that if you want
Hello Zoonie what I mean is that our life’s are difficult and parters friends and a alike get fed up with us after a while so best in my opinion is get round it the best you can with out winding your self up as this makes you feel worse I’ve been down all the roads of fibromyalgia We have friends here on this sit that understand People who do not have fibromyalgia have no idea what it feels like The doctors don’t either really Be 😊
Well you done really well there is no point! just trying to help that’s all I’m not here to argue which is what you seem that’s what you want to do so I’d rather you not make comments about me please otherwise I will have no choice other than to repot you O by the way there is no swearing on this site not even made up versions good buy hope you feel better as things go on
No way I’m not like that at all I’ve suffered from fibromyalgia for 18 years I joined to help that’s all Zoonie I have tinitas too so life is difficult I’m sorry we got off on the wrong foot 🦶
Thanks for triggering me that was nothing compared to my ex what I went though and he did.
