Oh Man!!! You sound like I feel!!
I too suffer with insomnia and have tried MANY things, including the Ambien (put me to sleep, but like all other meds., just couldn't 'keep' me there!!).
If you DO find a good med. that keeps you asleep for a good 6hrs, at the very least, PLEASE, OH PLEASE let me know.....
Thanks alot!!
