I was taking Xanax to help me sleep, but I recently went through a period of hypo mania where I was only sleeping about 4 hrs. a night--not good for people with bipolar--so my meds provider put me on Trazadone. I'm waking once or twice a night so she may have to increase the dosage when I see her next week. She said she wants me drugged enough that I will sleep a full night since the hypo mania led to a bad depression.--Suzy
