I also have trazedon (I probably misspelled the name). I notice a few posters use it. I have taken it but find that I have to sleep it off or I feel really hung over. As far as I am concerned its one of the worse things to take for sleeping (or depression which is its main function).

For sleep problems, Trazedone is the first thing the docs try to foist off on you - same sleep-aid effect as an antihistamine, with the added beauty of intense nightmares. I wish the docs would try this stuff before Rxing it.
IMHO the best sleep aid is a moderate term benzo, like 2 mg Clonazepam (Klonopin/Rivotril) potentiated with 30-100 mg of dextromethorphan. Main issue is whether or not the DXM has permanent destructive effects with chronic use at this level? Plus side is that you don't seem to build a tolerance to benzos with this combination. Happy dreams.
