For Insomnia "I've had insomnia to varying degrees for about 12 years now (I'm 30 and the problem started in college) and nothing ever worked reliably for more than a short amount of time. I was recently prescribed Rozerem as I'd never tried it before. Bad idea. In addition to not sleeping, I woke up feeling extremely out of sorts, fuzzy, depressed, and lethargic. Halfway through the next day I'm still struggling to focus and my thoughts are disordered at best, on top of feeling totally exhausted."

For Insomnia "Scary!!! Was only able to be on this drug for a few weeks. It gradually increased depression to such a degree that I almost admitted myself to the ER for depression watch. I've never felt depression like this. It peaked in the morning and let up by the afternoon (3-4pm). It's now the third day since I took it, and it is lifting more and more every day. Never again!"

For Insomnia "I have tried Rozerem off and on for several months, and I found it to be effective at helping me fall and stay asleep. But I'm seeing a pattern of a hangover effect the next day that leaves me feeling very depressed and listless, which is not something that I have had with Ambien or benzos. So I'm probably going to stop taking Rozerem."
