> John,
> Thanks for the warning.. I asked about trazadone because I have a script I could refill.... took it last year... altho I have been thru so much since then, I can't remember the effect it had on me. Pathetic. I would prefer a good quality sleep/without feeling hungover... that's for sure.
> I have some xanax on hand too... never really thought of that. I think I'll give that a try tonight. Tried Valium last night... Fell asleep about 6 am... woke about 9:30..
> What is Zyprexa? Is that an AD? Again.... thanks for the advice, and being specific... MicheleZyprexa is an antipsychotic. Don't let the word antipsychotic scare you. To me Zyprexa is actually considerably milder than antidepressants, and yet far more effective in producing a well rounded response. Remeron is a norepinephrine and serotonin antagonist. Zyprexa is a dopamine and serotonin antagonist. On paper it is very similar to antidepressants. You need not be psychotic or schizophrenic to do well with Zyprexa.
I like your idea of trying the Xanax. Hopefully you will like it. If not though, you might want to keep Zyprexa in mind.
John
