Thanks so much, LauraBeth.

Well, I went in on Wednesday and my doctor basically tried suggesting I needed to "up" my dose to 100mg.. which I disagreed with and said "no no I'll stay on 50.." I was really hoping he would suggest going down or consider going off because of all this insomnia, which by the way, is still happening. Monday night I was up all night until 4am, and didn't go to work. Tuesday night I took Trazodone and did get to sleep at some point. Last night (wed night) i took a unisom and it worked great, I got about 7 hours. But tonight after trying to lay there after taking nothing (going sleep aid free) for over an hour, I decided I try unisom again. That was just before 10pm. It's now 11:50pm. I tried really hard to just lay there and rest, then I tried mindfully walking around. I just gave up because my brain will not shut off. It will be 3 weeks tomorrow that I've been on the zoloft. I am seriously considering going and switching doctors. Did anyone else have this sort of insomnia, and did it go away when you stopped the medication? I really am trying to figure out what to do.
