    Sleep - Mystery ?

    I am having sleep issues from past 5 years. Have used medicines like Clonazepam,Olanzapine,Mitrazapine &Escitalopram. All given temporary relief though none of them given long term fix. Especially when I used Escitalopram 5mg in initial days it given good sleep these days I am taking 30mg though not getting quality sleep. Followed many natural ways as well. Please share your inputs. Thank you

    RE: Sleep - Mystery ?

    You might ask your doc for a referral to an MD who specializes in sleep. Look for AASM board certification. If you haven't yet tried a CBT sleep training program, you might look into that as well. Much good info online if you're the self-help type.
