I've tried everything for sleep, including traz. I find the atypical antipsychotics to be the best sleep meds available. Zyprexa is my favorite.
Traz, serzone, tricyclics, ambien, etc...they can all help sleep, but they just feel "dirty" and they all have a morning hangover and some daytime grogginess, to me.
Zyprexa, in contrast, feels very "clean". I have absolutely no morning hangover and no grogginess at all. I did have a slight hangover and grogginess the first week or so, but that went away completely in short order. Just real good sleep, the kind where you wake up feeling like you slept real good.
I know we all respond differently. Personally I do not like any of the sleep meds out there. Only the APs, zyprexa in particular, are fit for the job, for me. And I like the way it works reliably night after night, year after year.
I also take prozac and sjw, which I find activating and cause insomnia. Zyprexa completely and cleanly over-rides that at bedtime.
