"started taking this drug after having trouble dealing with anxiety at bedtime, and i honestly could not have asked for a more effective drug or excellent results.  unfortunately finally built up resistance to 3mg; at that point i had to stop taking it and did so the wrong way.  went cold turkey and did not sleep for three nights in a row even though i was taking benadryl x3 and a rozerem. been trying different non-sedadting (hypnotic/non-benzodiazepine) sleep aids and have found nothing close to lunesta yet."
