I don't like regular sleeping pills at all. I hate the hungover feeling they give me. My doctor gives me Trazodone when I go through periods where I can't sleep. You might want to ask your doctor about it. I believe it is used for depression, but they also prescribe it for sleepless nights. I like it because I wake up feeling fine the next morning. What works for me, may not work for you, but you might want to try it. Carol
