Try to get in with your doctor as soon as possible to discuss this. You don't want to deteriorate and not be able to work as I did.

trazadone 100 mg and blacked out curtains..complete darkness at night plus the temp at 73 (I'm in FL so that's a good temp A/C wise) has helped me sleep. My sleep has improved tremendously.
I hope you find what works for you. Also, no ipad, iphone, laptop or back to back episodes of criminal minds after 11pm has helped as well.

If I catch it early, melatonin and/or my klonopin helps me sleep. I often get depressed/racing thoughts when my sleep is off too. Take the melatonin at least an hour before you want to go to sleep every night and make sure you don't have light pollution where you are sleeping.
