I've tried the Ambien and the Sonata...neither worked well for me, but thank you so much for the suggestions..I will look into the Estazolam.

We started out with 100 mg (he knew I needed a good nights sleep, haha), but it was WAY too much for me, I could've slept for days. Then we tried 50 mg, still a bit too much of a hangover/zombie effect. Tonight I am going to try 25 mg and hopefully it will help me sleep but not so much hungover.
