Have you tried both? If so, which one do you prefer? I have been on Ambien for so many years that I am afraid to go off it but I really don’t think it is working anymore. Thanks!

Ambien put me to sleep but after 4 hours I would wake up and have to take another....but then it started giving me bad anxiety....and trazodone I've only tried 1 night....didn't seem to work but I'm gonna try it again and see how it works after a week.
For sleep I definitely prefer Flurazepam....works great always! But I have anxiety issues as well, occasionally, and my new doctor will not prescribe Lorazepam and Flurazepam....so I opted for the Lorazepam. Because it helps both issues. I take an over the counter with the Lorazepam, so that helps. And you can break them in half so you can take half at bedtime and half in the middle of the night.....I do that so I sleep longer into the morning.

I’m in the same boat!
