"i have suffered from insomnia for many years. i have recently been on trazadone with a occasional valium.. the combination was working. but i wanted off the combination fearing i had been on them too long. my doctor prescribed belsomra 10 mg 1 at bedtime. ha, no freaking luck. i feel like i am taking a sugar pill. this medication is a joke. normally this would have been a $300.00 trial but because of my past history i got a pre-auth and it was only $40.00. i to wish i could get my money back. i have now lost 2 nights sleep and can not afford another night. i am going back to my trazadone tonight."
