hydroxyzine and trazadone ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™ seroquel kept me constantly tired, made me gain about 20lbs, and when I first started it I slept for about 40 hours and felt miserable I also developed tardive dyskinesia bc of it, so proceed with extreme caution if you decide to go the antipsychotics route

I also had issues with seroquel. I have been on trazodone (100 mg) and over the counter Melatonin (10 mg) for years, and they work great!

Hydroxyzine worked great for me! The only side effects I noticed were that it seemed to dehydrate me and I got really cold as I was actively on it. Other than that it works amazing for me

I was on Trazadone for a long time. Was the only thing that worked. Otc did nothing. Within a week and doubling the dosage of Ambien and still not sleeping the doctor tried Trazadone and even the lowest dose a year later was still working.

I take otc melatonin for sleep (10 mg). Melatonin works great for me, but sometimes gives me incredibly vivid dreams.

Most of them leave me dragging. Seraquel is only used of im fearing a manic episode and trazidone i half the smallest given amount. My hero ends up being benadryl or just pure exhaustion.
