* What is your diagnosis? GAD with depression?
I have had chronic insomnia for about 9 years. Some doctors believe GAD caused my sleeplessness, some say depression, and they say you should treat those first. I'm still waiting for that to work!

Have you tried taking standard sleep meds? Some simply didn't work for me at any dose. Ambien CR at 12.5mg sends me to sleep, but doesn't keep me asleep. Have you tried it?

* You could try 75mg to 100mg

* I've never tried trazodone, but hear good things about it. Amitriptyline did nothing for me.

* I understand how that desperation for sleep is, so exhausting. I ended up in my doctors office years ago, begging for sleeping pills in the end, so I could function at work. Now my problem is feeling sedated in the daytime from Seroquel, LOL!

Keep on trying!
