Sleep-Eze is Benedryl. Generic benedryl is diphenhydramine hydrochloride.
You can buy that cheaply at discount stores like Costco, Wal-Mart etc.

Grief is an entirely different process from other types of sleep
disturbances. Everyone reacts differently, of course. All the people I am
acquainted with, that have experienced significant grief, (quite a few as
I'm of an age where it is more and more common to lose loved ones) cannot
sleep no matter how many drugs they try (and I didn't sleep much for several
weeks when I lost someone I loved). Of course you can poison your body into
sleeping by taking ALL the drugs -- bad. The best course is to let grief
run its course, come to terms with the grief, and geta doctor's help with
depression if the grief is paralyzing or carries on, for more than several
months.

Ooops sorry about mixing threads... blame it on my sleep problems :-)

Oil of lavender is used by many, use the esstial oils type not perfume, and
don't put it where it will go into the CPAP machine and therefore directly
into your lungs. Scent is meant for the nose only :-)

Can't spell either. How about 'essential' oils?

Sleep Eze is diphenhydramine, the same as Benadryl. Diphenhydramine is
a sedating antihistamine.
