> Effexor was awful for me in the way you describe, Jhall131. LRT by Twinlabs/Alvita saved my sleep-depraved soul also when i was on Wellbutrin, and again as the natural insomniac that i have been All My Life. It is stronger than the multitude of meds that have been prescribed for me. It is preferable to me because it leaves no after-or-side effects that i refused to tolerate. Warm LRT worked for me very quickly (i found i needed to sip while in bed, reading), with my soup-bowl sized teacup; granted. With a little raw milk, sometimes. In the morning awoke alert and refreshed. In a feeling of 'wholeness' that no RXs had ever offered. And i am a VERY tough nut to crack.

We all crave it and some of us have so little....I am, alas, on Ambien....nothing else worked NOTHING. I am the kind of girl that will stay awake for days....Untill Ambien graced my door and now I sleep zzzz all night long...I love sleeping.
I hope you find something you are okay with....sleep is so important for every part of your body.
