Sanval

Resurrecting a dead thread here...
I've been using Sanval for about 15 years now. On average, I take it every second or third day.
Bit by bit, I worked my way up to taking 3 x 10 mg at night. In the beginning, that dosage hits hard; I’d sometimes catch myself stumbling around mid-stride—coming from a state of full consciousness, it feels like an actual "injection" into my brain as the chemicals hit my receptors, and then my mind just shuts off. At first, I would head straight to bed to pass out, but later on, I started sitting at my computer to get a few things done—checking emails or scrolling through news sites—before the final shutdown. There were times I’d be caught right in the middle of "working," only to start wandering aimlessly around the house, trying to find my way back to the bed.
Waking up is the classic, mild hangover feeling you get after three beers. My head aches slightly, but more than that, I feel completely drained and listless because I was awake for so long last night.
Now I'm hitting a phase where even 30 mg isn't cutting it, and it looks like I might eventually have to give up Sanval altogether.
In my personal experience, this stuff functions more like a recreational drug than an actual sleep aid.
