Seroquel XR works for me for MDD.But Remeron,as antidepressant is similar to trazodone,works for me better for sleep.Antidepressant properties of Remeron wears off in a while,but both my sister and I use it for a sleep.It knocks me out like nothing else at doses 15 mg or 30 mg.

I take both Seroquel and Trazodone at night. They both work great.

Me as well. Trazadone did bog all - but i was only on it for 2 weeks. Quietiapine 300mg is my goto dose for a decent 12 hours sleep.

I take 150 mg of Seroquel XR,which is different from usual Seroquel in many ways.I don’t experience side effects that happened a lot due to taking generic Seroquel.Also,it doesn’t make me sleepy at all,just works on my mood problems and depression.
However I need sometimes Remeron for sleep.It always have worked for me.Be aware of one thing when you visit doctor.If you are already on antipsihotic,that Seroquel is antipsihotic too.
Remeron is an antidepressant used as well as sleeping aid.
