insomnia
"I've been taking Trazadone for insomnia since 2011.  Started at 50mg but quickly went up to 200mg. After a few yrs I'm down to 100mg but occasionally take 200mg. I still wake up in the middle of the night almost every night but usually go back to sleep fairly soon. But if I don't take it I'll be up for days. I have not been able to go without taking it in 4-5 yrs. I also suffer from bi polar type II. I take Effexor for that. Without trazadone I'd go crazy from lack of sleep, but I really would like to sleep thru the night for at least 8 hours instead of waking up after 2-4!! Any other suggestions? Benadryl gives me the shakes and agitation and melatonin does nothing."
