I took 150mg last night and it didn’t knock me out. I got five hours of sleep and don’t feel the greatest

It didn’t do anything for me. I take Lunesta now.
I’m with jukebox on his recommendation. Personally for me, ever since I went through 14 days of insomnia, getting your sleep pattern stable 8-10 hours is crucial to holding onto a good recovery. For some reason if the seroquel doesn’t K.O. I have went to as much as 300mg like jukebox says. I wouldn’t be afraid of it. Let your pdoc know so that you have a good supply. And 5 hours ain’t that bad. Yeah it sucks I agree with you on that. But it could be worse like 1-3 hours.

I tried to kill myself with it once. I took 4500 mg of it, and it did nothing to me. Apparently, I am immune to just about any amount of that drug.
That is what I read is so special about trazodone, that you can take a bunch of it its non lethal, now that is a lot of pills. Crimby maybe God intervened and your here for a purpose 
I take Trazodone. My private pay guy describes it as a “clean” drug.
I cannot rely of anything for sleep, however.

Reminds me of being in the hospital I had insomnia so bad. Staying asleep wasn’t the issue but falling asleep was. They’d give trazodone and it wouldn’t help then they give me another dose. After laying there for three hours of get up and go to the nurses station and ask for something else. Every night I’d lay there until about 6 am. Finally fall asleep and they’d wake me up at 10. Back to the insomniac state. Up until 6 am again. Thankfully they decided to quit forcing me out of bed. They’d still come take my vitals.
One night I was pretty much throwing a fit. Not violently but I was pacing, bothering the nurses, very restless and nervous. It was the only night they did it but they gave me a shot of something… Boom out cold. Was pretty great. The head circus was full volume non stop all day. WW3. Religious ■■■■(Christ/antichrist shit). Telepathic people. The whole sexuality thing. ■■■■■■■ mess. So much better now. Anyways the suffering was all day long leading to a sleepless night. They gave me that shot and I was like thank god.
I knew those shots worked cause they gave me one in the hospital er after I tried to bash myself unconscious against the wall. Broke a hole in the plaster. Got me involuntarily committed(was a good thing).
Yeah thinking about all that makes me feel a whole lot better about where I’m at.
My main point was trazodone didn’t do ■■■■ for either.
(Sorry for misusing the word insomniac it really did seem quite similar to the condition)
