Which sleep medications have you tried so far, and how did they affect you?

I never had a problem using Ativan or trazodone for sleep in conjunction with Parnate.

You should probably take 1/2 your daily dosage first thing in the morning and the other 1/2 no later than 3:00pm. You can take it as soon as 4 hours after the first dose. I took it morning and 1:00pm.

For me timing did make a difference in how well I slept. As the months passed, though, this became less critical. If the drug is helping that much, then attack the insomnia aggressively. Don't simply treat is as a side effect. Treat is as if it were its own disorder. It kind of changes the perspective on things. Stress to your doctor how you feel about this and the urgency involved.
