"after suffering from insomnia since i was a child, i have tried many medication, home remedies and nothing really helped. when i was in nursing school it only became worse. i went to see my dr. he recommended seroquel. i was on seroquel for about a year and i hated it, horrible nightmares, groggy feeling, not sleeping, irritable, and it worsen my bipolar symptoms. when i told him i was not taking seroquel anymore he gave trazodone. i worked right away i sleep as a &quot;normal&quot; person does(8 hours). this medication has really changed my life with sleeping more and mood swings under control. i been taking it for a few years now."
