Hi everyone,
Hope u all doing well, okay so I have been on sterlaine for about a month now, the main reason for going on it was because I suffer from insomnia/ Anxiety and don’t sleep much. I am tired and exhausted all the time. I actually can’t remeber a time where I feel refreshed and not tired.
I have been given sleeping tablets which I take as and when,
Will my sleep get better? Does it actually help with sleep? It just seems weird I am taking a tablet to help me with the one thing I need help with most but there is no difference in sleep.
Thanks for reading x
Nicky, mine got better after about 6 weeks but i still have to take Trazodone every night to go to sleep. At one point I was only sleeping a few hours a night on heavy sleeping pills, now Im finally getting 6 hours. I get a panic feeling every time my body tries to drift off to sleep, that has not been as severe feeling but its still there l, not sure if i need to increase dose, im on 75mg now.
i’m sorry your still going through this, i think it will get better soon.
Hi Nicky,
I've been having sleep problems as well. I am on Sertraline for 2 months. My sleep is getting slowly better - and I take a bit of benzodiazepines at night. Still I wake up every night around 2-3am. Sometimes I am able to fall asleep again, sometimes not. There will be good and bad days, one month is still early to say. First you should feel less tired and then your sleep should improve.
