I have been taking chloral hydrate for 14 yrs. for severe chronic insomnia. It has been very helpful but I caution that a person can develop a tolerance so do not overdo it. I am usually able to sleep 5 hours straight after a teaspoon before bed. It is most useful in helping me fall asleep.

I have been on Chloral Hydrate for the past 14? Years now. It has been THE only medication for my severe insomnia, that helps. I have a heart condition, so the older antidepressants that the doctor prescribe have been bad for me. I don't respond to you atypical sleepins meds. Have been to the sleep clinic twice. The doctor there refers back to my psychiatrist. My psychiatrist agrees that mine is NOT psychological, like the sleep doctor thinks. If you ever have a problem with a doctor, saying it is all mental, question him, or her! I did & they don't like it, haha. I worked in the medical field for some time. Read up on the latest. Hope you all can find something & have sweet dream, wakeing up well rested!
