Sorry not a newbie. Couldnt get my password reset under my posting name Brutus1, so I had to register again. I have been following this board for about 9 years and post occasionally.
I probably know the answers to my own questions, buts its always nice to have input.
Currently tapering off klonopin after 9 years of 1-1.5 mgs at bedtime. Reducing at about .25 per week, and currently @.75 mgs all at bed.
Problem is I fall asleep just fine but wake up 4 or so hrs later just about every night, with difficulty falling back to sleep. Tried Trazodone for sleep, just desiccated my mouth and didnt help much, neither did Elavil or Remeron. Seems sedation does equate to sleep with me. Are there any alternatives to klonopin, besides other benzo's and sedating ADs?
I also take Wellbutrin XL 150, buspar 10 mgs bid and fluoxetine 20 mgs. Does anyone know how many hrs there should be between Buspar doses? I take mine at 9AM and 5PM I also feel mentally dull, just not sharp cognitively.
THX
