a little opium works well.

I was offered some at GSM by a mad yaba woman- it was legit, but very public so I declined.

Allegedly Lao.

Where would one find such medicine reliably?

Are you asking for a reliable source of opium?

Interesting thread. I take a sleeping pill every few months when I've had bad sleep for a few consecutive nights. I'll fore myself to stay awake and not nap, then pop one around 9-10pm. I currently have a single Axprazol (Alprazolam) pill at home. 0.5mg. Worked last time. I've also used Diazepam (so-so for me) and Lexomil (which I think is Bromazepan, so in the Diazepan family). Lexomil works ok but I find the "regular" dosages you read online don't knock me out. I have a friend who never bothered checking dosages and said he sleeps 12 hours with them... I then told him what % of a pill he took (they have 1/4 marks) and he said: "Parts?! I pop three pills"
He isn't addicted as far as I know.

I wouldn't recommend regular usage.

The list of side effects for regular use is scary.

Main side effects are not being able to give them up and not waking up ever after heavy drinking.

What about Temazepam? I can't remember the different strengths, but they would knock you out. Dicodin was a much sought after and expensive ish street drug in the UK. If Stilnox is better ( you said more expensive) , then it must be good.

Insomnia- Do you need to stick to rigid hours? Have you thought about just following your own body clock, and ignoring accepted routines. Like polyphasic sleep?

I use Unisom ( Doxylamine succinate ) here in the US. Headed to Cambodia for extended travel in Sept. Anyone know if it is available there?

I've used Zolpidem, but potential side effects scared me off.

LOL! So not so much sleeping as comatose...

Temazepam, sold as Normison, and Stilnox are the same type of agent (hypnotics) so would have a similar affect, although I haven't tried Temazepam. Seriously don't know if Stilnox is any better, it's just expensive. OD, did you mention Normison elsewhere?

I was polyphasic by choice (as opposed to brain injury!) for the past eight years or so - working full time and studying full time. I'd work, go home and sleep for a couple of hours, study until 3am, sleep, repeat. Having a hell of a time breaking the routine now though, and it's not really practical staying with it. When I was in my late teens I worked shift for a couple of years at a government agency, but the shift pattern rolled backwards (i.e. you lost a half-day of rest each cycle) and this messed with me. A study was done on the impact, outcome was 'not good'.

what keeps you from falling asleep?
racing heart, racing thoughts..???
or do you wake up at night ?

magnesium is good at night (not oxide),
and melatonin to fall asleep.
