I was taking trazadone for my Nardil induced insomnia, and it gave me an awful hangover, so much so that I was dysfunctional the next day. My sleep schedule has always been erratic, daytime naps, insomnia. My doctor told me waking and going to bed at the same time was more effective than any sleeping pill, and to stop the trazadone. I've really been trying. I go to bed at 11pm, no naps (even though i'm falling over tired) and every night I wake up at 3am. What can I do? I can barely function during the day, in fact, right now I need to go take a nap, (because I got 4 hrs sleep last night) which is going to screw up my sleep tonight! Never getting a continuous 8 hours of sleep is as bad as the depression, I can't tell if I'm forgetful because I'm tired or depressed. I'm also afraid of what it's doing to me on a neurochemical basis. My doctor won't let me take klonopin or ambien because they are both habit forming long term.
