Insomnia
"I&#039;ve seen 11 sleep docs in 4 states for my 16 yr old-sleep probs and don&#039;t have a diagnosis yet. The closest said the part of my brain that tells me when to be awake or asleep isn&#039;t working properly. He nailed it, thus my self-diagnosis of sleep-wake amalgamation. I&#039;ve taken 19 meds, eg Ambien, Provigil, Klonopin, Rozerem, Vyvanse, Lunesta, Trazodone, Gabapentin, Mirtazapine &amp; OTCs like melatonin &amp; valerian. Of all, Belsomra is the only 1 that doesn&#039;t leave me groggy, druggy or sleepless, although a few were very beneficial and I still use with Belsomra. With Bel., I get more REM sleep and feel much sharper. My only disappointments are the slow sleep latency &amp; very slow increase in deep sleep, likely due to Klonopin&#039;s GABAAR downregulation."
