Stimulants How to sleep on stimulants?

[Keif' Richards]

I've always found Clonidine (Catapres) to be a great sleep aid. I don't think it's recommended enough.

Depressants are the only surefire way around stimulant induced insomnia. Particularly Benzodiazepines and sleep aids.

Here goes. 65 and been using drugs since junior high. ODed many many years ago when I was say foolish and inexperienced’. I have been on 40 mgs of methadone for several years. I have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep. I was just diagnosed with Graves’ disease which one of the symptoms is insomnia. My Dr. Does not know my past and it is basically all a fib. I do have problems with certain body parts that can easily be faked. I know benzodiazepines and opiates particularly Dolophine can be deadly I don’t dispute that at all. If you take enough of anything it will kill you duh. I am a senior person now and would not take any amount not prescribed or just too too much. Sleep only. I want to ask my Dr for maybe enough 1mg Xanaxes for a semi good sleep every 4 days for a total of 7-8 1 mg tabs a month. Does anyone see anything wrong with this or could you recommend something else or to ask or not ?
Any input would be appreciated

I avoid taking my sleeping meds, including my benzos, but also my thorazine, and my doxepin for a couple of hours at least after my last dose of meth. Otherwise i get hypnic jerk, and its miserable

Pregabalin with xanax works perfectly.
Etumine its wonderful to fall asleep.
Quetiapine
Lorazepam and many benzos works.
But bé careful with benzos. They are a potentialy addictive drugs.
