Seeing my semi-new pdoc this coming week and been a bit down for a couple months, with some SI each evening when I get tired. Not sure why, there's no reason for it; not to mention that I've worked fairly hard at actually getting tired and going to sleep at about the same time each evening (9-10pm). Kinda concerned as I haven't talked about that with this newish doctor before and I'm not sure where he'd draw the line. I just really don't have time to spend in a hospital right now, and think it'd be more than a little overmuch for what I'm experiencing.

I do wonder a bit whether dropping the trazadone has led to this state of affairs, it is an antidepressant after-all. I just felt proud of myself at the improvement in my sleep routine and being able to keep it going without the assistance.
I take trazadone every night but it's prescribed "as needed". I've been sleeping ok lately but sometimes I don't even with it. I'm glad your routine seems to be helping- I think that's half the battle- having a routine. As for the SI, I understand it coming on at night when you're tired. Please keep a close watch on it and don't hesitate to call somebody if you start making plans! Or even maybe before that!
