I am so tired. My body needs rest. Yet I cannot sleep I lay in bed and close my eyes but I don't fall asleep. I get up and move around just doing nothing. I try again to sleep and cannot. I have talked to my pdoc about trying something. He has given me trazodone 50mg to take. I took it yet I am still not falling asleep. I'm not sure if uping the dose will help and am nervous to do so as it is also used as an intidepressant and all of the meds for antidepressants I've been on so far make me a bit suicidal so I avoid them. But they say with the trazodone in low doses it is more for sleep than depression. Before the trazodone I was using my antianxiety meds which helped but then I didn't have enough for when I really needed them. Not to mention the tolerance I could build up. I've tried herbal teas seraquil risperdol(sp?) Lexapro laying and doing the tensing of muscles from toes to head. I don't know what else to try. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
