All benzodiazepines make my depression
worse after 1 night and I cannot tolerate the
awful taste in my mouth from Lunesta.
I may try the trazadone or seroquel again, but
those 2 never worked for sleep with other
MAO's, especially Parnate. I hope I can stay
on the patch long enough to get some therapeutic response. Hope you are doing
well!
