It's a very old antidepressant that doctors mainly prescribe for insomnia. It's not addictive like some sleep aids. Maybe you can talk to your doc about it? I don't feel groggy in the am (except for the first two days when I started it). My doctor adjusted the dosage until it was just right for me. Not sleeping is HORRIBLE. Argh! I hope you get some relief soon.

I too have used trazadone in the past for just this reason. I found it
so helpful. I remember I was able to wake up with the baby and
go right back to sleep after. It really was the best sleep I have ever
had, with no side effects.

If this keeeps up you might want to ask your doc about Trazadone.
