Insomnia

So I work a shit schedule.
My sleep pattern is fucked and when I try to sleep, I can feel myself drift off cuz it feels so good and then notice it and I have to start all over...
Are benzos an option? I've been on ambien before and it isn't for me.

I have had very severe insomnia since I was a teenager and the only thing that really helps is Ambien or Trazodone(which I absolutely hate because it makes me feel so damn weird). Weed used to be a miracle cure for it, but it stopped having that effect. It really sucks never sleeping well. When I do fall asleep, I don't stay asleep and I usually wake up after a few hours.
If you really have insomnia, I feel sorry for you. It really sucks!

benzos are not an option for going to sleep. Then you become addicted to benzos.

Do you think if I go to a doctor known to prescribe cannabis, they will prescribe me benzos?

I have had it for about a year, I sleep 3 to 5 hours, if I wake for anything like bathroom, etc. I am up, no way going back to sleep.
I have been using all over the counter sleep-aids, benadryl, valerian, melatonin,,,, I get to sleep fast and hard, but once I wake for anything, it's all over.

I read if you take melatonin all the time it makes it hard for your brain to do so on its own.
Try lowering your lights, turning off electronics and hour before bedtime, the darkness will stimulate your brain to start producing melatonin, or something akin to that.

I take benzos for sleep, have for quite awhile now. Other than Trazadone (which fucking blows and makes me feel like shit and groggy for the entire day) nothing else really works.
If you can find something else that works, it's advisable to use something else. When nothing else works, yes it's an option.
I was also on Ambien for a long time and had to get off that shit. That shit made me crazy, literally. Like suicidal crazy. My brother and another friend also had pretty similar experiences on it.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline
