I’ve had insomnia since high school. It progressively worsened as I aged. Now my body won’t sleep at all. Not even a few minutes. I stay wide awake and it’s sickening all day and night. I tried traz, ambien, restorill, Clonidine, belsomra, Amitriptyline, etc etc etc.My doc put me on 150mg trazodone and 150mg Quetiapine 4 years ago. Depending if I’m my trt dose or if I’m running higher, I have to adjust my quetiapine up or down. This combo has been great me. I’ve suffered from insomnia my entire life (I’m 52yo) and have taken everything under the sun for sleep. Because of the queit. You have to keep an eye on glucose, but my diet is pretty clean and mine is always in range. Hopefully when I retire, I’ll be able to try pot, but my job requires random testing under federal law for now. Good luck, it’s a rough hill to climb.
Finally we decided to try seroquel and I remember the first time taking it I had passed out and slept for almost a whole day. I woke up so groggy I wanted to sleep more. I had never felt like that before. After 2 weeks the grogginess went away. Now I take it and 45 minutes later I’m old cold. I sleep all night without waking up. I’m able to get up early and start my day. It saved my life 100%. No one understands how sick you can get psychically and mentally without sleep. I wouldn’t wish anyone to go through what I’ve gone through.
