I can’t wait for the day.

That the insomnia is all over and I go back to my normal sleep, I was always a good sleeper 9-10 hours a night (before kids) 7-9 after I had kids. Took Ativan for 2 months for anxiety related issues (which didn’t work) and developed insomnia I’m 6 weeks into withdrawls cold turkey from it. I’m sleeping last week 4-6 hours broken up  but thankful for that cause at the start I wasn’t sleeping at all. This week I have a wave due to my period and maybe getting 3/4 hours.  BUT I know my sleep will return eventually! nothing last forever this can’t last forever.

Yes, sleep WILL return especially since you were a good sleeper prior to Ativan and you were a short-term user.  It's great you are getting 4-6 hours of broken sleep.  I would have loved that at 6 weeks out from my CT.  I was averaging 5-10 hours per week.  No fun.

 

But it will slowly improve, but could be UP and down for some time.  Hang in there.  You are making good progress and doing GREAT!
