    So...an update. The dr/nurse have taken me off Zopiclone and put me on to amitriptyline (10mg) Last night I only had a couple of hours sleep unfortunately I know it will get better EVENTUALLY but I am really struggling right now. The nurse did say to go back again today if I needed to, which I am going to do. x
    One day at a time ....😃

    . How long were you on the zopiclone? I only ask because insomnia can temporarily return when coming off it and it may be you need to do it gradually rather than suddenly stopping. Amtryptaline is good for helping with sleep, for many people (me included)
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I love amitriptyline. It changed my life for years! Def go back and speak to them, but suddenly stopping the zopi is going to have a detrimental effect as your body becomes reliant on it really quickly...

    I took Arty to the doctors this morning. He has doubled the amitriptyline and put her back on the Zopiclone. I spent the night with her last night and will be with her again for the next few nights. Tomorrow she is having the girls back but her mum and I have a plan, and we will help out.
