number1boxer1919: Another case in point - as @pjss48 noted, Trazadone works for her. My husband also takes Trazadone, and he swears by it for help with sleep; however, I've tried it and couldn't sleep for 24 hours straight, and I felt 'wired' for another six hours after that. Again, everyone is so different, and that's why I think it is important to keep trying until you and your doctor find something that works for YOU.

& Yes I've taken Trazadone also & it did the exact same thing to me it made me not sleep & made me wired as heck! I've tried like probably 8 different anti-depressants & they all made me extremely wired & sick.. It was terrible lol & I defiantly agree everyone's made differently & different meds work better for different people.. I mean I did find meds that worked great for me but they lost there effectiveness so now they barely work & I have no idea what to do about it.. I just wanna be able to sleep & wake up rested that's all.. But I don't know what's not letting me sleep now it's crazy.. I mean I really dont have anything I stress about, unless I'm stressing while I'm asleep which I literally have no control over.. It's pretty rough lol.. I really appreciate the advice..

@suecreader I get wired from drugs like OxyContin and dilaudid. I really hate that.
