> I did take tamazapam for a while during an earlier stage of withdrawal from the zispen (22.5mg - 15mg. That helped slightly but no more than this med. I had no trouble coming off that after over a week of use at 20mg, and slept more naturally afterwards. After a week of sleeping 5 - 6 hrs a night I decided to come off the zispen completely and this is where I am now.
WOW! I am impressed. I like those a little too much ;-) Ended up developing a benzo addiction so I am very wary of those now...
> I haven’t experienced the metallic taste that you talk about as of yet so that is good. But once it got to about 9am I noticed I was more anxious than usual, this off coarse could be to do with the lack off zispen, but now I am back to my usual anxiety level.
Okay. I don't think I noticed anxiety as a side-affect...
> This insomnia is reminiscent of when I tried to come of cannabis 3 yrs ago which although I was not a heavy smoker I did have a joint before bed each night. I think it’s in my head about I need a night cap to finish the day off more than anything, but alas the warm milk doesn't work for me.
No, the warm milk doesn't work for me either. I've actually taken to a little mj as a sleeping aid. Wont touch Imovane now after 2 tablets a night for 4 years...
Take care.
