guys can someone else relate to sleep problems and what ya take or do for them. about 5 months ago i took a weight lifting supplement that had insomnia as a side effect. when i started having problems sleeping i discontinued it. but the problem now is my anxiety when i don’t fall asleep right away or wake up from a dream. restless nights are becoming a pain in my life!!!! my phy. dr. gave me ambien and that worked for a short time but now i am determined to go another route. i have an appt. with him fri sept 9 and i am going to discuss the possible non narcotic meds for anxiety.(if there is any) i want to add i take subutex 8-10mgs a day in the 2mg tablet form. i have tried valerian root, meltatonin, warm milk, and other otc and nothing is really helping. it doesn’t matter how tired or sleepy i am before i hit the bed. this has been the biggest problem for me since getting help in 07 and i haven’t touched any optiates since so my treatment has been solid; only because of the support from my wife, a beautiful daughter, and a great understanding dr. thanks for any help and wish all of ya the best in your recovery.
