Good luck with your new meds.
Hopefully it'll curb your anxiety.

Glad you went. Hope the temazepam helps and also glad that you told her how you have been feeling. S x x x x

I have picked up my prescription for temazepam but part of me is too scared to take it as I have to be up early for work in the morning and I am worried about how I  will be in the morning but the other half of me is screaming out for sleep and a night free is dark thoughts........

Could you take half a dose?

Do you think I would still sleep on half a dose? I have never taking Tamazepam before so I really don't know what to expect.

I was the same when I was prescribed Clonezepam. I would take just half the dose. Try it and see how you go tonight. It just calms you. Its not scary. Take care. S x x x x

I take Tamazepam, I was scared the first time, but its ok.  They say to take it and ensure that you get a clear 8 hours sleep.  I could always wake up in the morning and would just feel nice and calm.

how many mg are the tablets?

Thats the same as mine.  I tool mine about an hour to an hour and a half before I wanted to go to sleep, they took a bit longer than claimed.  The next day I just felt calmer, sunny day sort of calm.

I couldn't bring myself to take it last night because I had to be up early for work today but I should have given it a try because last night was a living he hell. I want today to be over so I can take the first tablet and get rest and some release from increasingly scary thoughts.

Going to take the tablet tonight. Want to take the whole packet so I never wake up again but I can't cope with the thought of my kids finding me

I actually got some decent sleep last night. I did wake up several times but fell back to sleep quickly. Feel a bit groggy this morning but grateful for a night free from hell. My doc has told me to only take them once or twice a week though when I am desperate for sleep so it is only a reprieve for one night.
