I don't sleep well without medication. After I stopped the saphris, I had a couple of nearly sleepless nights before I got some benadryl. Saw my pdoc today and she is okay with me taking benadryl as long as it works. I was on ambien a few years ago until it became less effective and then it was hard to get off of it. I built up a tolerance to trazodone over time. I will probably build up a tolerance for benadryl next. Melatonin has never done anything for me. Alcoholic haze sleep was always poor quality and I quit drinking 7 months ago.
