River,
Thanks so much for your reply - I've been quite ill in the meantime - I have a chronic bowel parasite infection on top of everything else - and desperate for good advice.
> Sorry, but I don't know what ME is? It probably isn't relevant to my answer.
That's ok - ME is more or less the same as CFS/CFIDS/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in the US (although people argue over criteria).
Thanks for your comments on SAMe - I guess I'll just have to try it and see. I had no adverse reaction (in fact no reaction) to St John's Wort... but it's worth being prepared - thanks.
I'm desperately depressed at times, and mixed up with chronic anxiety and this deathly illness, and my seeming lack of reaction to every antidepressant out there, am just looking for advice on what might be best to try first, from the list in my original mail - all good suggestions I gleaned from this board.
Thanks also for your references to hypnogogia etc.
It may be time to request a sleep study, but being bedbound more or less, this would be a massive feat for me.I'm sorry to read (I think?) that Larry's not around - I was so looking forward to a reply. Can anyone else make any suggestions on my original mail, what's helped them, etc.? Anything anecdotal will do. I'm just rather desperate, and the orthodox/SSRI/etc route got me nowhere.
Honey
