Thanks for sharing. My nine month insomnia episode was a traumatic event that changed me. My brain did not want to shut off and I felt no tiredness day after day, week after week. And I guess all the adrenaline and cortisol and toxins that were not disposed off were piling up and started causing up-the-wall anxiety. Zopiclone helped me tremendously and psychotherapist as well. Keep trying to find the root problem but until then if zopiclone helps you function and eliminate anxiety then stay on it. You may also want to talk to your doctor about trazodone as that has been suggested to me to avoid prolonged use of zopiclone.

I had a bad case of insomnia for 9 months. In the first four months I had what may be a similar feeling - like being sucked / falling into a black hole and then jerked back out of it and I also took deeper breaths before and after this sensation. When this started happening I thought it’s a normal falling asleep mechanism which is glitching hence the insomnia but once I regained my sleeping - with the help of meds - I know for a fact that there is no such feeling during regular falling asleep. Which to me means that this sensation is a symptom of something during insomnia.

Hi. I hope I’m not late to the AMA event. I’m interested to learn how you started the publishing company. How much financial investment is needed to start? How do you look for authors at the starting line? Whom do you talk to at the bookstores to get shelf space? Can you say anything about typical startup publisher financials, ie revenues, expenses, ROI?
