I use trazidone for sleep. Just got back on it after about 8 years off. I was so bummed when my insomnia came back a few months ago. Not to mention tired!
I get a bit drowsy in the am, but not like when I don't sleep.

Trish, the 'fuzzies' go away over time............. i'm a bit sluggish getting started in the morning, but it's FAR better than not being able to sleep all night long!

ya, i can believe that the 50mg had you sleeping very well

oh, the other thing is that i take the Seroquel right after dinner time, then go to bed at 8:300pm, i'm usually up around 7am, but i seem to sleep longer when i've had the seroquel

good luck!
