Drugs.

Did all the sleep hygiene stuff and supplements, even a bit of self-taught CBT. It's not useless - it most definitely makes a difference. But when push comes to shove, only drugs really help. The question becomes: what can I safely take for many years, which works well enough. I'm currently ok with microdoses of mirtazapine (under 1mg). And I'm testing doxepin (~5mg). To note, my main issue is terminal/maintenance insomnia, not falling asleep.
