For Insomnia "I was concerned because when I take this medicine, I have the most bizarre dreams. I mean, they are really out there, and the funny thing is, I remember them and can go back if I think about them and continue the dream. To me, this would be okay if the dreams were pleasant, but they are not always."

For Insomnia "It replaces Ativan. No, it doesn't! It works, in combination with 10 mg Melatonin, for a max of four hours, four hours of seriously intense dreams! At 3:30 a.m., I'm wide awake, tossing and turning till daylight. Only thing left is good old NyQuil!"

For Insomnia "My issues with sleep have always been getting to sleep okay, but waking up at 3 am and having difficulty getting back to sleep. To counter this, I take 20 mg of doxepin, which works wonderfully and lessens my general anxiety and depression. However, recently I had trouble falling asleep (work stresses), and the dox doesn't work like that. So my doctor prescribed Rozerem 8 mg, and in conjunction with the low dose dox, it worked wonders. I only had to take it a couple of days to get my sleep cycle back on track. Like melatonin, it produces crazy weird dreams but no bad side effects. Now I only take it occasionally when anxiety strikes, causing bad sleep induction insomnia. Even with my copay, it's expensive at $5 per dose (doxepin 5 cents per dose). Recommended for occasional use."
