:wave: Hello Biyak,
I wasn't familiar with Zopiclone but I did look it up on the net. It is a short acting hynotic. It says it should only be taken for not longer than 4 weeks. Also, it said withdrawal symptoms do occur but very rarely.
If you have had dependency on narcotics before (if i were in your shoes) I would not take the percocet. I have switched addictions many times in the past. but question is, were you taking the clonazepam like you were suppose to or were you taking more of it to feel good? I think it is a personal decision. I would just hate for you to go through w/d's from one drug and get addicted to another drug.
When I have insomnia I use seroquel. it is a antipsychotic medication when used in high doses (800 mg) but i only take like 15mg (for sleep) and it knocks me on my butt. It's a shame you can't take antihistamines. I use Hydroxyzine. It helps with nausea, anxiety, & insomnia. umm...for the neck discomfort, try heating pad or relax in the bath. also try and move around & stretch. I have found that laying around makes me feel worse. if you have (prescription strength) naproxen 500mg same thing as (aleve over the counter) those work great for muscle aches. or just plain ole motrin 800mg or OTC ibuprofen.
:angel: I hope this helps some. Let me know how you are doing. Eventually all the w/d symptoms will go away and you WILL feel better.
