I take 3mg clonopin and 10 mg ambien and 160 mg geodon, and usually all of that doesn't even make me tired. But I don't want to switch sleep meds because everything else I've tried has been even less effective. Lately I'll sleep at least 5 hours a night but I have a fitbit tracker that shows how many times I wake up and it's usually in the 20s. I'm not tired the next day though, just in the morning.
So really, I don't know what helps me sleep. Alcohol definitely works, and marijuana worked sort of well back when I smoked it (won't touch the stuff anymore due to psychosis and random work drug tests, and just not liking it), but alcohol is not a good solution, plus I have to get up to go to the bathroom.
