I have for years only been sleeping about 3 hours a day, it keeps me in a constantly run down state and is very mentally tiring. Recently my pcp gave me trazodone as a sleep agent, it works a little (4 hours sleep in a row) but the side effects the next day are bad. I feel groggy and stoned (in a bad way).

I have been thinking about going the opposite route and getting rid of all sleep aids and using provigil to keep me alert and awake all day. The hope is that this will allow my body to tire naturally by the end of the day and give me a good nights rest.

I noticed tylenol makes me sleepy but I only sleep for an hour after taking them and you are limited how may you can use without causing liver damage.
