Yeah, same here. I was very tired in the morning, and I got to work late often if I didn't allow myself eight hours at least.

It would make me tired within the first half an hour, but I wouldn't be ready to sleep, so I'd have to wait an additional 1.5 hours to be tired again. Basically, it helped me sleep and stay alseep, but it didn't change my sleeping habits or mental thoughts, so it didn't help me work on the schedule I had (which was the real issue).

I take trazodone now, but only when needed. It helps me sleep well, but I don't like the feeling I get right before bed. It's intense for me. Also, it doesn't make me as drowsy in the morning. I feel more clear head on Trazodone.


But yeah, it works different for everyone.
