I've just been tossing and turning all night and can't seem got get any restful sleep. Twice this week, I've woke up at 5-ish in the AM and hadn't been able to get back to slee.

I have a supply of benadryl and ativan. As well as my favorite, vicodin. Limited supply though.

My doctor gave me some Abilify to try and see if it helps me feel better, but I haven't touched it because it's about $1,000 for a month's supply. :evil: :evil: :evil:

Sadly enough Abilify has been identified as being very helpful for autism, and such meds are very hard to come by. But if your problem is sleep, there are plenty of other less expensive alternatives.

Good luck getting a good nights sleep on Abilify. 2mg alone has caused some of the most F@#$%D up dreams I've ever had!
