Guest [mi...] Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hi Cachina, I have the same issue. I go to bed too late due to my work schedule, swing shift from 13:00 to 23:00 then go to bed around 00:30 and normally wake up at 09:00. Most of the time I will continue for 1 or 2 more hours. Im tapering 0.625 mg of clonazepan and I had reinstaed three months ago. I can tell you for sure that the problem is the depression produced by this drugs. Lack of motivation makes you stay in bed. Something that works for me is to get up as soon as I wake up, about 8 or 9 and have a chores ready to do. You have to force yourself to do things. Is going to be tough at first but it works! Hope it works for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Eg...] Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Yeah, I've been in that position. For me, it was actually sleep apnea! I'm not sure if that may be the case for You, but based on the medications in your signature (especially the blood pressure med) it makes sense that you could be pretty tired from those Hang in there and get a sleep study if you can to rule apnea out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
