Congrats on your sober time, Kris.

You may want to Google "cross addiction list" and print it out.

And then see a doctor about your insomnia.

If the doctor insists on prescribing something on that list, find another doctor - preferably one who knows about alcoholism and addiction.

I had a psychologist suggest to me many, many years ago, when I was in the throes of my alcoholism, that I may want to try a shot of whiskey before going to bed.

And I have had other doctors (e.g. anesthesiologists) want to give me benzodiazepines for sedation even though I warned them that I am in recovery.

Bless their hearts, they mean well.
