I have terrible had insomnia the last two months. Tried remeron did not help with sleep. Either did trazodone. Been tried trying Prozac the last two weeks, I am lucky if I get two three hours a night. I think the prozac has made things worse. Right now I don't know if I am depressed from lack of sleep or visa versa. Right now I'm going to just try 25 mgs of elavil and hope for a good nights sleep. By the way which is more sedating: Remeron, elavil, or trazodone??????>
Yes, it is safe, yes it helps with sleep and is utilized for anxiety. It is a Tri Cyclic Antidepressant or "TCA". I have been on it for a while. It is a very old and well documented antidepressant. There is a ton of info on this site and all over the internet. How much are you taking, what for and anything else you want to add to help clarify what questions you have?
