serzone, klonopin and ambien not working

Posted by jo little on June 22, 2001, at 23:13:16

I am now taking 300 mg of Serzone at night, 2mg klonopin during day and 10 mg of ambien for sleep. I still am not sleeping. I may fall asleep for an hour or two but am up again for 4 or 5 hours. I generally never sleep more than 3 hrs a night. I am still terrilby depressed and cry a lot. The klonopin is helpful during the day for anxiety. Just wondering if anyone has had similiar results with this mixture. Ambien just isn't working. I really think the serzone is useless.
Thanks for any reply.

Serzone is activating in some people, including me. It kept me awake all night. I switched to taking it in the morning and it made a huge difference for sleep (though not depression).

What do you do for the depression if serzone is not working for you?

I stopped it and am pursuing other options.

Absolutely nothing.

Try Restoril.

Then I went on Neurontin for my fibromyalgia and TLE, and began *really* sleeping. ..forfirst time in my adult life. Still need a little Valium to shut up the ADD chatter to *fall* asleep, but do so promptly. It's wonderful!
