> What meds work for you (preferably without too many side effects or tolerance/dependence issues)?
What's working for me is 50mg of Doxepin (Sinequan) about an hour before bedtime.

> Is your insomnia categorized by the inability to fall asleep or inability to stay asleep?
Both.
>How do you avoid the tolerance issue?
From what I understand, tolerance and/or dependence is not usually an issue with this drug. (I could be wrong though.) It is a tricyclic antidepressant and I am taking it with Effexor XR.
