Sleeping has been brutally difficult for me & the medicine seems to work but it takes 4 to 5 hours.

My brain injury was in December of 2006. I was in a coma for 32 days so it was rather serious.

Can someone PLEASE suggest something that has helped them sleep! Lunesta has been a joke for me too.

Any ideas folks??? ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated!!!!
hi joe thankfully my tbi dos ant effect my sleep pattern, in fact I feel more tired have you try ed changing your meds we build up resistances to many drugs, try hypnotics type sleeping drugs as apposed to sedative types or viser versa
