100-300 mg at bed time seems to help most people get a good night's sleep, natural feeling, with little hangover except at high doses.
BTW, Trimipramine (an old tricyclic AD) is said to give the most natural sleep. It is unfortunately very long-lasting; I take 100 mg every 2nd or 3rd night (to avoid too much AD stimulant effect). More than 100 mg, and I'm a zombie or sleep all day the next day.
My own insomnia is getting very bad; I take a "cocktail" of a varied combo of AD and sedatives every night with still only 4-6 hr sleep. I may need a higher dose of Trazadone, or something else entirely -- today I see my pdoc, thank heaven.
