Im prescribed 25mg (super low dose) to help with sleep. For the past month-ish, yeah it made me tired, but I adjusted and could easily deal.
I took 4 days off or so, since my doctor just recommended it “as needed.” Took it again last night, slept 13 hours, and completely shot my day.
Anyone else have experience with like, i dunno, yo-yo-ing tolerance levels? Does the experience i just typed seem normal?

They prescribed me cartoon sized doses in high school and Ioved giving them to my friends and watching them get sleepy. Where my sleepy boi at you, you want eat this 200 mg for me?
I’ve been using it almost daily since a year or so. Same dosage, sleeping patterns are also yo-yo-ing, but I’ve always been like that, so no issue there.
What’s bad is that if I don’t feel asleep fast enough, I’ll get those cravings and I act on them, I’ve been pulling weight and it has been a drag to be honest.
I got prescribed very high doses (eventually up to 600mg per night iirc) for several years in college. Eventually it became so detrimental to my sleep I had to stop. It would take like 3-4 hours to fall asleep and usually a large handful of melatonin and Benadryl was also required. I didn’t notice until I was off it but it certainly made me completely emotionless which was useful when I started and not so much but the time I got off. Overall I’d say it was a useful script that I was on for just way too long cause I didn’t want to deal with how fucked my sleep was.
