Back on Zopiclone though trying to stick to dosage

I went off for 2 weeks, only because I had no access to Zop.  I have been taking 2 per day for over 10 years.  I also take anti-depressants for the same period.  Prior to this I had a successful life and never even took a headache tablet, in fact abit of a health freak.

The 2 weeks I was off Zop was awful, though make easier as the people I live with were on holiday, so that was a huge relief.  During this time I realised just how much I would love to live alone, and that taking pills in part is because I hate having to share with people.  It is a viscious circle because I have no money to afford to be independant.  I honestly believe that if I lived alone that I would be happier and that I would eventually reduce and either come off tablets or take them minimally.  So, I have to figure how to reach my dream.  Trying to get a job, at least part-time would be a big step.

    I have been dealing with my doctor who has twice given me tablets that are no good. Surely if I tell her how much zopiclone she could at least base the dosage on that. I am looking at the internet option as was surprised to see suppliers who were missing. Has any change taken place and they have stopped hounding poor little zopiclone?

    I understand it's very hard I have had to claim for the first time ever and they don't make it easy! 

    I can fully appreciate what you are saying about sharing and I do hope you manage to get somewhere else in the near future x
