Sorry, had to take back my vote. I only tried one. I tried one of my moms trazadones once when I was in psychosis. I woke up and tried to walk and almost fell over. My legs would not support me. My psychosis made me think I was having heart attack or something. It was not a pleasant experience. Called the ambulance and everything, but did not go with them when they arrived. I had paranoid thoughts about health because I thought I had been poisoned and bill was going to kill me.
Don’t take others meds folks!

I took 4500 mg of Trazodone once, and it did almost nothing to me. I don’t know what Doxepin would do to me. To tell the truth, I don’t have as much need to stay on a regular schedule now, because I don’t have a job, and they are forgiving if you oversleep and come to day treatment late. I don’t know how long that is going to last, though. If anyone is interested in a sleeping aid that might get you on a regular schedule, maybe try Elavil. I think it is a tricyclic antidepressant, combined with a sedative. It kept me on a regular schedule for six months, which is a marvel, for me.

Trazodone did not work for me. They give that at my hospital. Had to give me Ativan.
Never had the other one.

@crimby @Kxev The mental health place I go to doesn’t allow sedatives like Ambien. It also doesn’t allow benzos for anyone. They’re super strict about it.
