Is my Halcion sleeping medication good, or evil? ?

Question

It makes me sleepy, but I don't wake up with a hangover like that Trazadone. But I don't think it lasts very long. I believe two hours.

Answer 1

Halcion has a very short half-life.  That's why it only last a few hours.  That's also why Halcion is so addicting.  There have been studies linking Halcion to depression, so if you are depressed, Halcion could exacerbate your depression.  All of the benzodiazepines are addicting.

Have you tried taking Benadryl?  (Tylenol PM is the same thing as Benadryl, but you don't need extra Tylenol, so just purchase regular Benedryl, or the generic version, diphenhydramine.)  It will make you very tired.  Sometimes you'll awaken feeling pretty groggy; but at least Benadryl isn't addicting.

Good luck.
