insomnia
"Female, 61 with chronic insomnia. Been on Ambien off and on since 1998. diagnosed with chronic abdominal pain too which impacts my sleep . Ambien worked pretty well, but my insurance just stopped paying for it so I am trying out Belsomra. Took one 10mg tab at 7:30 as directed. Went to bed at 10:00; didn't really feel tired. Stared at the ceiling with a headache until 3:00am. Took another 10mg tab and finally fell asleep about 3:30. Had an extremely vivid nightmare. (I have always dreamed in Technicolor and stereophonic sound, but this was over the top.) Woke up at 5:00am then fell back asleep and had a normal dream, but then was only in a very light sleep when the alarm went off at 7:00am. Will try again tonight with 20mg. The jury is out."
