Thank you so much for your response. I feel better now and so much more hopeful.
I am very appreciative

You will be 'unlucky' if you find it helps you sleep lol...this is one med that is almost a sure thing for insomnia for most people. Just give it time and get up to a higher dose at a comfortable rate.
