    Seroquel puts you to sleep like a baby. And you wake up after 8 hours of deep sleep. That's something good. Every trucker should get that kind of sleep. After a day's hussle and bustle, die for 8 hours lol.

    You guys can debate the drug use all day long, but the question still remains, why were they prescribed in the first place? Why are you in pain? Why are you anxious all the time? It’s not because you have a lorazepam deficiency that’s for sure.

    Not necessarily. Suppose your carbon monoxide alarm goes off (every sleeper truck should have one), will you be able to wake up? Suppose you are parked at a shipper and they bang on your door so they can load you or kick you off the property or whatever? Will you be able to wake up and move the truck?

    I already drive for a living. Last moving violation was in 2015. Last accident(I was rear ended) was in 2019. I am a responsible person, not some bum. I even have 800+ credit score.

    Not that deep. I was just exaggerating. Phone alarm can wake you up

    Neck pain. It got better after a few years. But I injured it again. Bad pain can make you anxious and depressed. When your whole head is in pain, please don't tell me you can remain happy and relaxed

    What do you drive for a living? Nobody us saying you're a bum but your idea that drugs are going to cure all your woes and let you have a career driving trucks is terribly irresponsible.
    Listen to what the members are telling you. They're trying to keep you from hurting yourself and hurting...maybe killing...other people.
    They know things that you haven't had the time and opportunity to learn yet. You're being given a fortune in good advice. Don't waste it.

    But will you be coherent enough to drive a truck? Because if you crash while high on sleep medicine, that will present a world of problems for you.

    True, but I wouldn’t be driving a truck either.
