Taking parnate now for quite some time i have worked hard to tweak and twist it to dose ranges,augments etc to get it to work well for me.
So now it does,BUT of course what comes to play is the insomnia.
Now heres what i explain to a close friend who trys to help me,...my depression is very sensative,meaning im very sensative to depressant drugs.
I can use a depressant as part of a parnate augment fine,BUT as i search for a sleep med the problem i have is this,....
Yess i need something to put me to sleep of course,however i dont understand how spending all day fighting depression off only to take a depressant at night makes sense for me.
The minute i take a depressant for sleep,i twitch my legs,i act up,i get emotional,many times i simply had to grab a single parnate at 12 am as the depressant i was using was causing me hell.
Right now my family and i are in total confusion on what to do for this,how am i supposed to attack my depression nice and early in the am which is when my meds best work when at 3 am im sitting at the table wide awake from parnate.
Why am i so sensative to deprssant drugs,my friend thinks its anxiety i have over a single experiance,i dont knoow,but i cant take one for sleep,and quietly drift off,rather i go into redzone.Some have any ideas?Is there any actual any sleep meds that wont worsen depression when taken alone?
p.s also does anyone notice when parnate is working,they find themselves literaly not WANTING to go to bed,this is something im using will power over but if i dident id be a happy clam on the net all night till morning came and i realised how crappy i feel,now i go to bed the same time,not go to sleep,lol just bed.
