Lately I have avoided insomnia, first by getting up the same time everyday and using 75mg seroquel at night to keep me sleeping.
Rarely had trouble falling asleep. The last two times were in december, I used a litebook this year and this 'may of helped'.
Good luck,

I'm glad you have avoided insomnia. I only get it when the weather is at its most severe, so the actual insomnia itself doesn't last long; a few weeks. But the depression can often last longer, and because not only was the weather outside bad but I started working at a place that apparently hasn't ever heard of heating and cooling systems, so I suffered scorching heat and freezing cold
inside as well. Now where I am working it is only scorching heat. Hey! An improvement, eh? I had on a sleeveless top at work and one of my coworkers said "are you hot?" and I said "yes" -- if they want to make something of it, I'll be happy to accompany them to HR and explain to all parties how 85 degree temperatures
inside coupled with the medication I take makes me overheat.
