I was trying not to take sleeping pill see if I got real tired and sleepy afterward and got some sleep. But for 10 days straight, I got 0 sleep for many nights and 5-15 min dream other nights. I lost nearly 7 lbs in 10 days. Loosing weight so fast alone would cause fatigue and sore eyes. I had no choice but to take sonata and ambien but those did not work well and many nights I took sleeping pills (10mg of sonata, or 10mg ambien other nights) and got 0 sleep every other night or so. And when I did sleep, I slept for 5hrs and down to 2hrs a night. I stopped it after 2 weeks on those sleeping pills because those are habit forming.
By the way, after stopping Zyprexa, for many nights straight, I did not feel sleepy at all. When I did feel sleepy, I went to bed at night offcourse, and after 10 or 20min on bed and the sleepiness was gone.
Does anyone know that seroquel does the same thing?
