"i&#039;ve had chronic, unmanageable insomnia for almost 7 years. it took my life from me. i never thought it would reach the point where my doctor--who i no longer see--gave me huge amounts of medicine and put me in a mental hospital for 3 days! i found a sleep specialist who confirmed i am not crazy, he tried me on a few medicines that didn&#039;t work--i was getting roughly 2-4 hours per night for years--and finally, he tried this medicine. wow. it&#039;s not perfect because my illness is an illness that i will struggle with for a long time, but i&#039;ve been getting better. my life was a disaster for so long that i cried every single day. now, i&#039;m beginning to feel like myself again. i hope you all do too."
