insomnia
"I was 28 when my doctor wrote my first script.  I had just had to put my mother in a nursing home and that did not go well for her or for me.  And I had just take a job 350 miles from home.  I started with a white cap, a 1.0  mg.  It worked great for me, but some people had problems with that dose of 1 mg and the FDA said doctors could not write anything above .50, or two white caps, .25.  When I had to reduce my dose, it took me 6 months to get my body adjusted.  So, 31 years later, I am 59 now and have to have the .50 to sleep.  All my insurance companies thru the years would pay for the drug as a bandage for my problem, but would not pay a penny for drug treatment to get off the halcion.  Yes,I know I am hooked on halcion for life."
