Hello, I truly understand your situation. I was given Klonopin (panic attacks age29) and thru the use of these, my sleep suffered.I am now 56 yrs old and am on 2-2mg Klonopin, restoril, 1000mg tryptophan and 3 mg melatonine. That is only to make me go to sleep. The longest I have slept is 4 (coma) hours and then I'm fully awake at 2 am. I have thought it could be hormones,weight, anything that could cause this, but to no avail. Insomnia is horrid and I read that it is also a sign of premature death. I believe it! Someone out here MUST HAVE an ANSWER for us or where we might go for help. Unfortunantly for me, I have lost my insurance coverage and health care is gauged by dollars. I have a few saved and willing to pay for treatment if I could find where to get it. Thanks for listening and I hope you found your healing. L
