I used to take Trazodone for two years. It was pretty potent stuff for sure. If you want to get of scripts you could try the no blue light rule 2 hours before bed. Meaning no electronics, dim lights and sounds, then get in bed with a book and a small lamp, drink some sleepy time chamomile tea, and maybe a melatonin. I also sleep a lot better with some kind of noise app running. Relax MD is a good free app.

I too take Melatonin. I take 7mg and I sleep so good. I take the time release kind helps me go to sleep and stay asleep.

I've taken Trazadone for awhile, used to take Elavil but gained a lot of weight, so I got off that! Have tried Melatonin and other things but came back Trazadone! It's the only thing that lets me get the deep restful sleep needed for fibro patients! Without the good sleep we hurt and the cycle goes around and around!?? My main problem is now no energy and fatigue! I also hate taking lots of meds other than my 5-6 blood pressure pills and one for diabetes! I stopped all statins because of the leg pain!

I don't go to bed early but the severe insomnia has got better since taking high dose of Magnesium during the evening

That is the dose I took for years. If I tried to increase it, I got dizzy and no sleep. I am very sensitive to most meds. I know someone with fibro who took 400mg!! I am on gabapentin now--I take 300mg at dinnertime and 200mg a hour before bed. I sleep about half the nights although most nights I do go to sleep very soon. I just keep waking up half the nights, but I am really tired during the day. That is the same effect I had on Trazadone. I was much more alert without meds, but couldn't get to sleep and never got into deep sleep. That was with Melatonin (3mg which I have been on for 20 years and probably not effective anymore but I take it because I hope it will help. I have tried many other natural ways to sleep but nothing seems to help me. Wish I could be of more help. A great book I just got which I am working through is "The Fibro Manual" by Dr. Ginevra Lipton, M.D, She has Fibro and has a clinic for fibro. I hope to work through some of the things she suggests. I encourage you to check it out. Amazon has it.
