Ah, btw, hope it will be useful (just personal exp)

I have tried different sleep medications, but the one that worked best for me was Mirtazapine. Although it is an atypical tetracyclic antidepressant, it works well before bedtime, plus it can be taken not regularly, but only when needed.

My doctor and I tried escitalopram (lexapro?) and setraline, but the former turned me into a sleepy vegetable 18 hours a day, I could stay in bed all day, or even all week, even with the lowest dosage. The second one had no effect at all, whether I drank it or not.

I also tried Quetiapine for sleep, it has a plus in that it does not cause any dependence and it is easy to stop taking it, but its effectiveness is so bad, although it is better than nothing if you have terrible problems with sleep.

I had to cease Mirtazipine due to nightmares - or more specifically, because I was waking my wife up from the screaming. Never happened before nor since, and I can remember some of them still. Terrifying
