Ritch, what else are you taking and what is your diagnosis?
Thanks, S

> Hey, I'm in the same boat! I can't seem to ditch SSRI for anxiety resurfacing. Also, low-dose sedative SSRI's tend to help my sleep (a little not a lot). I'm thinking about asking my pdoc for 250mg of Keppra at bedtime (just for sleep). When I took it before it worked really well for the middle of the night wakening you talk about (and which I also have). Neurontin also worked well at bedtime (just for sleep). The Keppra didn't make me feel "foggy" the next day, just a little clumsy and unbalanced for a few hours.
