I too had insomnia during Coivd illness (lasted a month 12/07/20-1/2/21) and continue with insomnia, still. I initially was prescribed Doxepin (an old tricyclic anti-depressant that is used for inducing sleep) and it worked wonderfully, keeping me asleep all night. Then, I tried CBD gummies for sleep and they worked for a few months, then seemed to plateau, and I was waking up in the night. I took 1/2 gummy as a whole one upset my stomach. After the gummies plateaued, I went back onto Doxepin. I would prefer not to take a prescription medication and have checked into an herbal supplement, Gaia capsules and plan to order and try them on a weekend (just in case they don't work). That is my experience and suggestions. - Kim
