I take around 2000 mg of diphehydramine a night. I see from ALL the posts that this is a massive dose and that I could've easily died. I have serious chronic insomnia. I can't stop my brain from going and going and going. And if I don't go to sleep I feel like I'm losing my mind the next day. And missing a few nights of sleep doesn't even make me more tired. Been taking between 1000 mg and 2000mg for a little over 10 months now. Only problems I've had are weird muscle spasms in my hands and heavy memory loss for about an hour or so before I know I went to sleep. How am I getting away with this? And does anyone know of HELPFUL solutions? No melatonin or warm milk. Trust me, I've been trying everything.
Some cannabis will definitely help. Replace the diphenhydramine with weed. Or at least phase it out slowly if you can't make the transition suddenly.
Try an indica strain like Afghani.
