insomnia
"Have had intractable insomnia since having neurological Lyme disease. The infection is under control but left me with issues with cortisol levels & neurotransmitters.

Benzodiazepines worked great, but MD's became concerned since I'm in my 60's and elderly people are at higher risk of side effects. Weaned off benzo's & tried Belsomra.

1st try, got the full body paralysis mentioned by others. Plus hellish, horrible waking nightmares. Felt like I'd gone insane. Demonic, yes.

The labeling states if you take it & get mental disturbance, Belsomra has problem of triggered pre-existing, underlying mental illness.

Poppycock. This drug is frightening. IMHO it's useless, overpriced, and dangerous.

The 2nd time no sleep, nothing, zip, nada. DONE WITH IT."
