Have you tried anything for sleep?

@tpj I take 50-100mg hydroxyzine, 5mg melatonin, and 400mg magnesium glycinate every night, but I'm still struggling with sleep :(

Would you consider increasing the melatonin?

I can relate. I've been struggling with sleep for 16 months, and to some degree years longer. 25mg hydroxyzine used occasionally is only a little effective, melatonin has never done anything for me, zolpidem in small doses sublingual overnight when can't get back to sleep has helped. No luck with all supplements tried. Would like to try Dayvigo or Quviviq.

My concern is so many drugs for sleep, including benzos lead to dementia after awhile, then FINALLY you can't remember.

@tpj I might have to experiment with that. I also have trazodone on hand, but last time I tried it for about a week and it made me very sick to my stomach. But I might just say f*** it and take it anyway to see if it helps
