Thanks everyone for your experiences. My doctor also said that in the morning I may feel "sick" like I have a hangover. Is this common or just the first few times you take it?
Oh I got awful hangovers! Between that and it not helping much with sleep, I stopped it. Hope it works for you, though! I'd ask your pdoc if it can have any of the kind of activating properties of newer antidepressants. My pdoc at the time told me that the therapeutic dose for depression -back in the day- was just astronomical, and the sleep dose is by comparison very low, so by that logic I would think it wouldn't be activating bc you wouldn't be at a high enough dose. Good idea to ck it out with the pdoc though. Good luck.
