The medicines you are taking like zolpidem and lorazepam are not indicated as the primary treatment of insomnia in the context of bipolar disorder.

My best advise is to go to a psychiatrist and you will be advised after full evaluation.

So go and try this for some sure-fire success to wean you off of the medication in due course.

Hii,
Happy for you that you are under treatment for OCD.
Just want to say you that don't take any medicine by your own. You need to consult with your previous psychiatrist because he knows your symptoms very well .I think do follow up with the Dr. & ask him. That will help you definitely.
Thank you, have a nice day.

Hello, better stop that heavy doses of medicines.
Just take Belladonna 6C one dose whenever you get headache or attack of migraine.
It will be relieved within 10-15 mins.
No other issues, no side-effects at all.
Still if you have any queries, then please let me know.
Take care. :)
