Hi Becky ,

here is the Trazadone report. I took 50 mg last night . I was up all

night again. So, it seems that this drug does not work for me. I have not

really slept in 4 days. alison

Hi Becky ,

I am on a low dose of lexapro . I also have ativan which dose not seem to

do all to much for me. I go to county clinic so anything addictive or

controled is close to impossible to get. It took me 3 months to get the

ativan ..they let me suffer all that time. I have a call into the dr

already ( called at 3 am and kleft a mesege) You said it was prescribed

to you right? I would still try it since everyone is different and many

peopel say it is effective for them .

Hi ,

I am sooo sorry you have not slept in 4 days. Are you going to cal

the doc. to see if something better would work for you. I know the

drugs affect us all different. What drugs are you taking? Lexapro?

or klonopin?? anything else to control anxiety and help you to sleep.

When I first got diagnosed with GAD they put me on klonopin and it

really relax me and helped me to sleep.
