Summary
In 2018 they described pain and exhaustion that sometimes kept them from sleeping, and said most prescription sleeping pills they had tried did more harm than good. Lunesta was different: if they limited it to a couple of times a week, it let them wake feeling refreshed for the first time in years, but the effect did not seem to last if they took it every night.
